Bora Bora Sofitel Bora Bora Beach Resort (Formerly Sofitel Marara)

45 minute flight from Papeete (Tahiti), on the diver's paradise island, the jewel in the crown of the Society Islands, the hotel was built following Dino de Laurentis' initiative for his film "The Hurricane".

Sofitel Marara Bora Bora has completed a major refurbishment and has been re-launched as Sofitel Bora Bora Resort. One of the finest resorts on Bora Bora, the Sofitel’s renovation included the addition of new overwater bungalows, a new spa and horizon pool, a new bar for the beach and pool area and an ultra-modern Japanese teppanyaki restaurant. All guest bungalows and public areas have been completely revamped; bringing the former film set resort back to its original movie star glamour.
