Travel Packages to Le Meridien Bora Bora

In 1998, off Motu Piti Aau on the outside rim of Bora Bora's famous turquoise and sapphire lagoon, Le Méridien Bora Bora opened with 85 fares, or thatched-roof bungalows, right over the water.

Guests thrilled to see the dramatic windows in the floors and direct views of Mount Otemanu, one of two volcanoes that helped create Bora Bora's paradise millions of years ago.

With the addition of 15 more fares, along the beach, two restaurants, a pool, and a boat-shaped bar, Le Méridien succeeded in honoring a location that for many embodies the essence of South Seas beauty.

The resort maintained its genuine Polynesian flavor in all buildings through the use of wooden beams and tall roofs thatched with pandanus.

At the same time, Le Méridien followed strict guidelines to protect the fragile ecosystem of the lagoon and surrounding coral gardens.

Guests must reach the coconut palm-studded atoll from the airport by boat. No roads or cars cross the islet. Only trails lead out to the beach, where modern-day dreamers stroll the paths Polynesians have walked since the ninth century.

Then gaze in at a postcard view of Bora Bora and out at the distant islands of Raiatea and Tahaa.

The fares provide an exceptionally warm welcome with their burnished hardwoods, louvered windows, thatched ceilings, and earth-toned fabrics.

Discriminating guests revel in the authentic Polynesian feel, but they also appreciate such modern touches as direct-dial phones, safes, satellite TVs, and minibars. At the over-water fares, large decks with ladders provide a great place to read, take in the sunset, or slip into the lagoon's warm turquoise waters.

Located farthest from shore, the new category of 16 Premium Overwater Bungalows offers air conditioning, VIP amenities, exceptional privacy, and singular views of Mount Otemanu. Even guests who prefer to stay inside encounter the lagoon's colorful creatures - right through a section of glass in the floor.

The main buildings speak pure Tahitian in their interior details, including the frescoes on the ceiling of Le Tipanié. The resort's signature restaurant offers both à la carte menus and buffets of international and Polynesian cuisine. The second restaurant, Te Ava, provides the happy ambience of a Tahitian village for a relaxed evening meal or a barbecue lunch beside the pool.

Finally, Le MikiMiki bar entertains with Polynesian cocktails, live music, and renditions of traditional Polynesian tattoos on the walls.

The bar's shape resembles the prow of a ship - pointing directly at the sunset over Mount Otemanu. Despite the charm of such sheltered attractions, guests spend the majority of their time outside.

Water sports range from snorkeling and diving to sailing and deep-sea fishing. Some sightseers explore the area via helicopter, boat, or horseback. Others prefer to simply lie on their decks or on the beach, soaking up the South Seas sun and marveling at the astonishing view of Bora Bora.
