SOFITEL MARARA CORALIA

As James Michener so simply put it, "Bora Bora is the most beautiful island in the world". Located some 200 kilometers from Tahiti, Bora Bora is the most famous of the Society Islands. Its name comes from the Polynesian word for "NEW BORN", which is a sensation that most visitors take home with them as a special gift from the Polynesian Gods. As you approach Bora Bora From air or sea, you are greeted with a vision that has enchanted visitors to the islands for over a century.

A Coral reef, dotted with Emerald "Motu" Islands, encircles and protects the main island like a string of luscious pearls, giving rise to Bora Bora's nickname, "Jewel of the South Seas". The Spiritual Center of this graceful setting is the lagoon, a gentle, warm body of water, whose undulating underwater rock and coral formations leave the surface with an unimaginable palette of blues. This exotic gift of nature is filled with infinite species of colorful fish and playful Manta Rays. It is on the edge of the lagoon, resting upon the pure white sands, that you will discover Point Matira, home to the SOFITEL MARARA CORALIA

On one of the Island's most pristine beaches, at the base of lush rolling hills, the SOFITEL MARARA CORALIA waits to provide for your every need. From the traditional Polynesian Flower Ceremony upon arrival to the fresh water swimming pool, the Marara ensures you the complete Bora Bora experience.

THE MARARA IS MORE THAN JUST A HOTEL

The resort offers a variety of unique experiences, with 64 bungalows, half of which are found in an exotic coconut grove, bursting with tropical flowers, another 11 resting along the sandy beaches, and 21 "over-water" bungalows with decks that reach out into the lapping waters of the lagoon. These world-renowned "over-water" bungalows, crafted from wood and woven pandanus, provide all imaginable comforts, while keeping in harmony with the island's natural beauty.

A paradise of culinary delights, La Perouse Restaurant takes full advantage of the island's bountiful fare. Diners look out over the peaceful lagoon and listen to the native sounds of drums and ukulele, while the staff of La Perouse prepare a surprising array of French, international and local Polynesian dishes. Succulent fresh fish, exotic fruits and vegetables, are all specially prepared for you, whether you dine at the restaurant, or venture out onto a dinner cruise under the southern skies. You'll begin your meal in the fading light; dine through the breathtaking sunset, and complete dessert as you gaze up into a magical galaxy of stars.
