Le Taha’a Island Resort, the ultimate Tahitian hideaway
Honeymooners and couples in search of romance and beauty have long headed for Tahiti, but the lesser-known island of Taha’a, just a stone’s throw from legendary Bora Bora, is all too often overlooked. If you’re in search of understated luxury on an island that remains as pristine as Bora Bora was over 20 years ago, Le Taha’a is the ultimate hideaway for you. The island is blessed with lush mountains and valleys, turquoise lagoons, and virgin “motu” islets. Fly in from Bora Bora to the Island of Raiatea which shares the same lagoon as Taha’a. This intimate retreat is an enchanting 35-minute boat ride from the Raiatea Airport or a 10 min helicopter flight from Bora Bora.
Located on the secluded Motu Tautau, facing the island of Taha’a on one side and boasting stunning views of Bora Bora on the other, the resort-inspired by Polynesian architecture and style hosts 57 stunning overwater suites and beach villas. Le Taha’a was built in and around the existing tropical vegetation, 80% of the materials used to build the resort come from the islands of Tahiti, and 85 % of the staff is from the Island of Tahaa so that travellers get an authentic Polynesian experience. Facilities include an on-site scuba diving centre, a tennis court, a spa and fitness centre, as well as a swimming pool, Jacuzzi, and two inviting bars.
