After honeymooning in Bora Bora 25 years ago, we finally returned to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and the island is as magical as we remembered! Everything about the Four Seasons was perfection! The airport transfer on a beautiful boat, being greeted by name upon arrival, the check in process with complimentary croissants and fresh fruit, the personal service and attention to detail - it was exactly what you would expect and more. We stayed in a lagoon view bungalow for 8 nights and it was wonderful. The rooms are huge and newly furnished. We especially loved the large deck with lounge chairs and shaded seating area. We spent every morning on our deck enjoying our coffee with the wonderful breeze and stunning views of the turquoise water.
The food was very good in all of the restaurants, but the Sunset was our favorite and we ended up eating there several times. The service was 5 star and we were so well cared for! Sit at the bar over the water and enjoy the sunset. You'll feel like you're in a dream!
The pool and beach area are stunning and the service in both areas was also 5 star. We really enjoyed getting to know the servers and staff at the resort and everyone was genuinely kind and friendly at every encounter. We loved the staff at the breakfast restaurant too and looked forward to seeing them every morning. It was so hard to leave!
Tips: Use the app for everything! So easy to chat with the concierge and book reservations for dinner, request housekeeping and room service with the app.
Bring sunscreen and snacks for your bungalow. They provide power adapters, complimentary beach bag, flip flops, and robes. Water shoes and snorkeling gear can be picked up at activity hut and kept in your room. Bring floaties and they will blow them up for you.
Our favorite excursion was the 4 hour shark and ray snorkel trip with Coco! We went from 9:30-1:30 and made 4 stops. Saw the most beautiful fish, sharks and rays. Worth every penny! We also did the complimentary motu getaway with Manu and had the best time! We had 3 hours (9-12) so we went snorkeling and then relaxed and swam at the motu. Such a wonderful trip and the guides were really fun and interesting.
Other activities we did were the jet ski tour, couples massage and Polynesian dinner show. All were high quality experiences but the snorkeling was our favorite.
Mauruuru Four Seasons resort for a magical anniversary! We will be back!
