InterContinental Bora Bora Resort & Thalasso Spa

This is our 2nd stay here! Absolutely love it! Staff is so fantastic! We love loved having drinks at bubbles before dinner. We were a bit disappointed that the little snack shack wasn’t open, but it was also low occupancy/low season. So hopefully it’ll be brought back! It was fun to get ice cream and a beer… Their little water garden is fun to snorkel around, lots of fish. We also had mother in law and all had a fantastic time.

Intercontinental Bora Bora We elected to use public transportation, which is fine; you get on a ferry, and when you get off, there are taxis to take you where you need to go. Check-in was smooth, and we were given scented cool towels and a welcome drink. Very Nice. The resort is laid out very nicely; we opted for a beach hit and were impressed. Right on the water, the room is beautiful. The bed is very comfortable, and the AC works well. The grounds are beautiful and well-maintained, They have a lovely pool. We ate here, and all meals were good. They put a strange sauce on hamburgers, so watch for that! Beach towels are provided. You can walk about 6 minutes to a market to get supplies for the room. One of the fantastic things about this hotel is that it is on the island's only good beach and is right across a small lane. It's about 100 feet from the lobby, and you are on the beach. Everyone gathers here every night for the sunset. Also, you get a water bottle to keep, and they have filling stations. I highly recommend this resort.

This hotel is the absolute definition of paradise. Nouredine and his team look after you with consummate skill from the moment you step off your flight until you board your return. The Island of Boro Boro is stunningly beautiful and the hotel is expertly set up to make sure you fully enjoy. The overwater bungalows are beautifully prepared and allow immediate access to the pristine waters and the beautiful tropical fish that you co-habit with. The hotel is environmentally switched on, has a coral breeding and nurturing program which supports a stunning array of fish making snorkeling a real treat. The hotel has three different restaurants and the food is fantastic in all, superbly blending local and French culinary skills. We booked a romantic dinner on the beach which was fantastic, well worth doing! We were superbly looked after by Michel for the evening . He managed to create exactly the right balance of serving our needs and keeping a low profile to allow us to enjoy a romantic evening! We ate a couple of times at Sands Restaurant and enjoyed the more relaxed casual atmosphere. Aeana helped us navigate the Tahitian local beers as well as ensuring our wine glasses were kept topped up! Over all the staff were incredible, their smiles and greetings infectious and the service first rate. We appreciate the help from Christophe, Assistant Manager, to navigate some complex changes to our schedule with minimum fuss and maximum efficiency. All in all a fabulous hotel in a wonderful location and a top class resort. Highly recommend.

This hotel is beyond amazing. This was our second visit with our daughters and we hope it is not our last. The first time we came our girls were much younger and stayed in the same bungalow with us. This time around they are older and they had their own bungalow. The hotel staff made theirs up with two twin beds and made sure the bungalow was very close to ours. The rooms are very large and comfortable. The decks have plenty of space to lounge. The views are truly some of the best in the world. Room 221 has the best view. This was the first time that we indulged in the hotel spa and I will say that it was out of this world. Where else can you watch the fish through the overwater glass floor while you get a massage or body scrub?! The spa grounds are also very quiet and relaxing. We ate at all 3 of the hotel restaurants. Each has its own menu and is very different in style and price. Le Corail is fabulous for a gourmet dinner. But, honestly, dinner and lunch at the Sands is great because you can’t beat the view and the tuna sashimi is to die for! That being said, the best part is the hotel staff. Everyone from the manager to the gardener is as kind as can be. Normally, I try to remember names to thank people individually. In this case, I would be naming nearly the entire hotel staff. When I say that everyone was truly kind, I mean truly kind and thoughtful. I also love that the hotel staff includes a lot of locals. I enjoy talking to them and learning about their life on the island. Many of the other 5 star hotels do not provide the opportunity for such local interaction. There is nothing more to say than that this hotel is absolute perfection!

We had an exceptional experience at the Bora Bora Resort Thalasso Spa. As frequent travelers with high standards for luxury accommodations, we were thoroughly impressed by the resort’s outstanding service and quality. The IHG values of "Showing Care" and "Aiming Higher" were evident in every aspect of our stay. After visiting several other luxury properties in Bora Bora, it’s clear that Thalasso Spa stands apart with its unparalleled location, thoughtfully designed rooms, and overall quality of experience. Special recognition goes to Ms. Sophie J. at the front desk, along with Lou and Antoine in Dining, for their exceptional efforts in making our special occasion unforgettable. Their personalized touches turned a wonderful trip into a truly remarkable experience. Even the new General Manger stopped by to say hello and inquire how is our stay going. We would enthusiastically recommend this resort to our friends and family.
