Only 3000 ft. by speed-boat from the Sofitel Marara and
from the main island of Bora-Bora, the Sofitel Motu represents
the perfect oasis of serenity including "à la carte"
escapism.
Personalized excursions and activities are arranged
on request (jet-skiing, shark-feeding tours, parasailing...)
but the guests also have the possibility to enjoy special
nights which feature local entertainment and dance groups.
Sofitel Bora Bora Motu Private Island
The
Sofitel Motu, the new address in Bora Bora, is an executive 5 star
resort spreading the discreet charm of its 31 luxurious bungalows
on an idyllic private motu (islet). It is conveniently located just
a few minutes by boat from the main island.
Being
at the other end of the world and enjoying the best services is
now a dream that can be fulfilled, thanks to the Sofitel Motu (which
opened its doors in August 1999) as an incomparable praise to nature.
Blending perfectly with the environment, the project took full advantage
of its natural setting including the best of traditional architecture.

The
road to the 31 pandanus-roofed "fares" is lined with hand picked
volcanic stones. The interior structures of the "fare" are made
of "kohu" (a dark and precious exotic wood). Exclusively designed
for the resort, the furniture inspired from the 40's creates a perfect
atmosphere of warmth and intimacy. The fare's shaded terraces directly
overlook the lagoon, the enclosed sea, and its calm crystal clear
waters with its different nuances of blue and turquoise.
As for the overwater bungalows, they all include a private sundeck
and a wooden bench, providing a unique prestige refuge for swimmers.
The
central building, a circular "fare" covered with a pointed pandanus
roof, is an open-air place in which each room is separated by "tapa"
cloths (traditional worked and beaten wood).
The rear of the hotel houses breakfast tables elegantly covered
with linen, a cozy area in which to play chess. At dawn it offers
a magical candlelit atmosphere.
Light
lunches which include grilled fish or meat and exotic salads are
served down at the beach.
The motu is the pearl of the coral reef, contrasting the deep black
of the volcanic rock formation with the immaculate white of the
coconut palms-covered beach. All day-long it offers the possibility
of an unforgettable dream walk.
The
180 degree panoramic outlook displays a stunning view of Mount Otemanu,
the sacred mountain of Bora Bora. Perched atop the motu's green
grassy hillside, one can soak up the crystal clear lagoon and coral
reef gleaming under the sun.
Nature
is omnipresent but the Sofitel Motu also offers the most modern
services of a 5 star resort: Cable-TV in the bungalows, room service
for breakfast and dinner, air conditioning and personal attention
to each guest's needs. From the fresh coconut welcome , to the departure
day marked by a farewell present, the credo of the entire team is
to make this hedonistic experience unforgettable.
