On the private island of Tetiaroa, once owned by Marlon Brando, this exceptionally glamorous resort is a 20-minute flight from Papeete, the capital of Tahiti, by private aircraft. The 35 plush one-, two- and three-bedroom thatched beachfront villas have decks with plunge pools, separate sitting rooms, media centers and outdoor tubs. The full-service spa and wellness center offers couples’ suites, a waterfall and a tea lounge. Overseen by acclaimed chef Guy Martin, Les Mutinés serves fine French fare in a formal dining room. The renovated Beachcomber Café offers Polynesian-inspired dishes alongside classic French cuisine. Activities include biking, snorkeling, kayaking, boating and bird-watching excursions, tennis, scuba diving and guided tours at environmental research stations on neighboring islands. Traditional Polynesian dance lessons, music classes, weaving instruction and cooking courses can also be booked.
The property uses a pioneering deep seawater air-conditioning system to reduce energy demands.
