Polynesian lagoon resort
Thatched pavilions and wooden walkways weave across a private islet, looking out across the turquoise lagoon toward Bora Bora.
“Located on the secluded Motu Tautau, Le Taha’a Island Resort and Spa is the perfect sanctuary to unwind with your beloved.”
Where it shines
Remarkable
Canoe-delivered breakfasts on private overwater decks, and attentive boat transfers across the lagoon.
What they say
Two Michelin Keys
Michelin
Also in AFAR and Tatler.
Overwater thatched suites and beach villas are built in traditional Polynesian style, with carved timber, and coral stone details.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
A short boat ride reaches Taha'a vanilla plantations and pearl farms, while a vibrant coral garden drifts right off the motu.
The rooms
Overwater suites feature glass floor viewing panels and wraparound decks, while beachfront villas hide private plunge pools and open-air stone bathtubs.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The freshwater pool curves beside the beach with submerged bar stools tucked under a thatched swim-up pavilion.
The spa and gym
Thatched spa pavilions sit beside an inland lagoon, joined by an outdoor whirlpool and an air-conditioned fitness pavilion.
At the table
Tables sit among the tree canopies at Hawaiki Nui, and beachfront pavilions serve fresh poisson cru on the sand.
Set against a backdrop of lush jungle, this secluded luxury resort offers a mix of accommodations, from gorgeous villas with their own private plunge pools…
