We just got back from our holiday at Hilton Bora Bora Nui and have had the best week in our lives. We traveled with a 6 month old baby and a very busy 2 year old.

We believe that Hilton has the best spot in Bora Bora. It is truly amazing and looks even better than on photos! Paradise! The water is crystal clear and you can see the sea bed even at night in the moon light. The nature and vegetation is beautiful! Like a dream...

We had an over water bungalow, which was amazing! Huge bathroom and balcony. Room service and fresh towels twice a day was great! As we traveled in the wet season it was good to almost avoid the mosquitoes. If you ever want to stay in an over water bungalow, this is the place!

The staff is unbelievable and the service is simply the best. We got married at the resort and the ceremony went way beyond our expectations. Unforgettable!

We used the baby sitter service during the wedding ceremony, and the babysitter was fantastic. She became best friends with our two year old immediately! She brought the children after the ceremony so we could have some family photos taken.

Our fantastic friends had organised a surprise for us with the hotel. When we came home from dinner the first night, the room and bed was beautifully decorated with flowers. Champagne in the room and a voucher for spa & massage. What an amazing surprise! The spa was indulging and relaxing.

Breakfast was very good. For lunch and dinner, the food was good, but not great. A bit disappointed. Also, it was quite expensive, and we were happy to be on an all inclusive deal...

Bora Bora is not a budget destination, still I find it hard to justify that the price is 10 times (!) as expensive as a 5-star resort at Denaru Island, Fiji. Location, service and privacy comes at a price, but 10 times...

The international competition for tourists is tough, and the resort will require some upgrades in the future to keep up.

Room Tip: The place to stay in an over water bungalow. There are three types of bungalows: presidential, s...

Right from the start, the Hilton Bora Bora was amazing. After being picked up in the hilton Yacht from the airport, to the Welcome drink and relaxing check in. We did not wait very long at all to be taken to our overwater bungalow. A fantastic and amazing suite, well worth saving our pennies for. The suite itself was superb, the bathroom was huge! The best part, the large amounts of tropical fish right beneath our suite that loved to come with a sprinkling of bread crumbs. Absolutely amazing facilities to stay in. The spa staff were amazing, particularly Poeta, the receptionist at the spa.
We were greatful there were dvds to borrow from the front desk for evenings as it was quiet. We really enjoyed having breakfast by canoe and also taking a half day snorkelling tour and swimming with sharks and rays.
We truly hope we can save up enough to go back again!

Room Tip: We really enjoyed having the overwater bungalow in the section over by the restaurants. I think we h...

The room was amazing but much better snorkelling at the Hilton Moorea.
Also the Hilton Moorea has a coffee table window to the sea and a la carte breakfast.

You are not on the island of Bora Bora, you are on the atoll 10 minutes from Bora Bora. The launch that used to take you for free now cost 7 Francs during the day and 15 Francs after 6. You have no options for breakfast, you have to pay 71 Francs which equals roughly $100 for a buffet breakfast for two, al la carte is not offered. Water is no longer placed in the room at turn down which means you must buy water from the only game in town which is the hotel or spend the money you would save to take the launch to town.

“Absolute Perfection”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 February 2012

people found this review helpful

This resort epitomizes tranquility in Paradise. The staff went out of their way to ensure our stay was as enjoyable as possible. From the beautiful lei greeting at the airport, to the boat transfer, welcome drink on arrival & effortless check-in - our every need was catered for. The rooms are spectacular and very spacious with magnificently appointed, gigantic bathrooms & tastefully decorated bedrooms in rich wooden tones, with four poster mosquito-net king beds. Golf buggies were always readily available to transport us around the resort (if required), as the resort is quite large. There is a good selection of food from the room service menu and we found it to be quite reasonably priced - even with service charge (around $75 for 3 including starter, main & dessert). Breakfast was very nice & served in pleasant surroundings overlooking the magnificent lagoon & pool area. The sand floor created a relaxed atmosphere and the buffet had a diverse selection of hot/cold options. You could also order from a set menu and the only fault was that the "made to order eggs Benedict" was hard every day even though we ordered our eggs "softly" poached. If the restaurant food is not to your liking, the resort offers a complimentary hourly ferry service to the main town of Vaitape which is 5 minutes away by boat. From there, you can eat at the local restaurants or go to the supermarket & stock up on supplies which is a cheaper option. The mini-bar at the resort is sensored, so be sure to take note if removing items & re-stocking. If relaxation, absolute peace & privacy is required, then look no further than this beautiful, picturesque resort. Try to travel from August through October when there is less rain & humidity.

“Absolutely Amazing!!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2012 via mobile

My husband and i went for our 20th wedding anniversary and had an amazing time. The over the water bungalows were spacious and decorated nicely. The entire hotel staff was very friendly. The beaches were spectacular. There were not a lot of people around so it felt very secluded. I will definitely be coming back soon.
