Conrad Bora Bora Nui

The Conrad Bora Bora has truly become our happy place. We've had the pleasure of visiting this stunning resort three times, and each stay has been nothing short of exceptional. From the moment you arrive, the friendly and accommodating staff make you feel right at home. Roger and his team consistently provide excellent service, going above and beyond to ensure guests feel seen and heard. They truly understand the essence of hospitality. Kevin and our personal concierge, Hansen, treated us with warmth and kindness. It was a wonderful way to kick off my daughter’s 16th birthday. The ambience, stunning surroundings, and incredible service at Conrad Bora Bora have created beautiful memories for our family. We can't wait to return and create even more unforgettable moments in this paradise.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Conrad Bora Bora Nui. My husband and I celebrated our 21st anniversary and could not recommend this resort enough for such a milestone. We stayed at the King Overwater Pool Villa for five nights and it was very hard to leave the room because of its wonderful amenities, amazing view of both Mt Otemanu and the Pacific Ocean. For us, a Bora Bora experience would not be complete without the overwater villa. It was very private and elegantly designed. Ours had updated digital controls, making the months of construction upgrade worthwhile. The personalized welcome note with champagne and chocolates made us feel special. Conrad is strategically located on a separate island from the Bora Bora mainland, so our private infinity pool was situated in a turquoise atoll lagoon and actually facing the Pacific ocean, unlike other properties. We swam with colorful fish, playfully nibbling at corals, just by the villa stilts. During our stay, a group of sting rays and black-tipped friendly sharks wandered into the property to our delight. You definitely don’t see this from where we are from! We woke up early every day to catch the breathtaking sunrise and walk hand-in-hand by the shore, as it had direct access to the ocean. We enjoyed both the sunrise and sunset at viewpoints within the property, which were accessible using complimentary bicycles. During the day, we took a dip in our private infinity pool, relaxed and just laid down on the chaise lounge. On some days, we also went snorkeling, swimming in the huge resort infinity pool and took naps on the beach chairs with the sound of waves hugging us to dreamland. In the summer, we highly recommend going to Vaitape in the morning while it’s not too hot yet. Since we stayed in July, we availed of the complimentary boat ride to Vaitape and rented out a Vespa there to tour the whole island of Bora Bora along the beautiful emerald coast. We definitely made core memories there, as we soaked in the Polynesian culture for a few hours. One of the unique events in French Polynesia during our stay was the Heiva. We booked the tickets through the resort but skipped the dinner since we wanted authentic Vaitape food to complete the experience. Kristoff accompanied us and showed us around. We were brought back home to our villa with a special private Conrad catamaran. We felt like VIPs! Our trip was especially made memorable by all the employees and their impeccable hospitality. We were greeted and toured around the property by Kristoff. If there was anything we needed, we looked for Kristoff and he delivered. The food was divine and very tropical fresh! On our first night, we dined at Banyan Chinese Restaurant. We then had dinner every night at the Tamure Beach Grill, which served French cuisine since their restaurant was under renovation. Nelly, our usual server, was the best! She recommended entrees for us and told us more about Bora Bora culture such that we booked the Polynesian Dinner Night through her. We highly recommend this dinner event, only on Tuesdays and Fridays, as they showcase a mini Heiva performance. It’s like watching multiples of Shakira doing the hip moves against a cultural backdrop with live music, narration, singing and unlimited genuine Polynesian food. One of the servers, Sylvane, urged us to dance with the group and we enjoyed it so much. She even taught us how to sway our hips like how a Polynesian does it! Hina Spa at Conrad Bora Bora was probably one of the best spa locations we’ve been to! It was perched on top of a hill with a sweeping view of the overwater villas, Mt Otemanu, the sunrise, the ocean and the beautiful flora around the property. The spa would not be complete without the staff, especially Wayan and Deli. Wayan toured us around and showed us the private couple massage areas. He also went above and beyond before and after our massage to give us the best relaxation experience there was. Their private sauna and relaxation room were clean with robes and disposable slippers available in the locker room. My husband and I just sat there, enjoying the views, before our massage. Upon check-out, Sophie assisted us in their private library. She was very organized and explained the checkout process very well. She accompanied us to the private boat dock to assist with our luggages. It was hard to see her wave her hands out as we bid farewell to paradise. We sailed away through the sunset so that made it such a dramatic beautiful exit to cap our trip. Conrad Bora Bora Nui was truly an unforgettable experience. The resort’s unique view of Mt Otemanu, landscape of luscious tree hills, and strategic location in the atoll and Pacific Ocean provided its warm hospitality and private luxury. We left feeling relaxed, closer to nature, grateful and already dreaming of our return. We highly recommend Conrad Bora Bora and we know that we will definitely be back!

Bora Bora is an amazingly gorgeous place to visit. Booking with Costco Travel did not disappoint. Costco knows travel! Conrad Nui made our over the water bungalow experience a memorable one. While Conrad Nui is located on one of the longest stretches of private white sand beaches, the resort is surrounded by the most beautiful shades of crystal clear blue water imaginable. Some of the on-site activities available are kayaking, biking, snorkeling, and paddle boarding. There’s a fully equipped spa that is perched on a hilltop embraced by unreal scenery. One can capture an amazing sunrise from the nearby platform. Of course, the friendly, attentive staff will enhance your experience by personalizing preferences, focusing attention to detail, and assisting with anything you need to make your stay worthwhile. The concierge was a great resource for exploring other island activities, locating the island doctor, and making sure we were well taken care of during our entire stay. It is worth mentioning the resort restaurants had incredible mouthwatering food options with magnificent service. Needless to say, we were very impressed with all aspects of Conrad Nui and taken aback by Bora Bora’s beauty. We will definitely revisit Conrad Bora Bora Nui. Ia Orana!

The staff throughout the property are incredibly warm, attentive, and accommodating. A special shout-out to our concierge, Hanson, who went above and beyond to create real “wow” moments for our kids and the whole family — the kind of thoughtful touches that turn a good vacation into a truly memorable one. The breakfast restaurant team deserves special mention as well. They remembered our names and preferences from day one, and every single morning our table was ready and waiting, with wonderful, attentive service throughout our stay. Our kids had the time of their lives at this resort. We had so much fun as a family that we booked our return trip for next year before we even checked out! Thank you to the entire Conrad Bora Bora team for such incredible hospitality and for helping us create wonderful memories as a family. We can’t recommend this property enough, and we can’t wait to be back.

We had the opportunity to take a family trip for 6 nights to the Conrad Bora Bora and it didn’t disappoint. The property is beautiful with a mixture of over water and land based bungalows. The tropical hills above the resort where the Hina spa sat was a perfect place to watch the sunrise. What stood out about this resort compared to some of the others in the Lagoon was the contrasting landscape of mountain and sea as well as areas where there was deep water (up to 15’) off of the patio, which my kids loved for jumping into. The deep clear blue water was magical. The people made the difference, each so kind and helpful throughout the trip. Too many to name, but Upa, Rua, Rama, Joana, and our concierge host, Adrijan were among many that stood out. As with any of the lagoon resorts, you can never get used to the food and beverage expenses so be prepared for that. Outside of that, this is a wonderful resort and highly recommended.

My husband and I had an unbelievable experience during our 5 night stay from start to finish! We were upgraded to an over the water bungalow with a pool and got a welcome bottle of wine and chocolates too! We couldn't have been more grateful! We knew in advance that construction would still be taking place, but in no way did it interfere with our stay at the resort. Every meal we had from breakfast to dinner was fantastic as well as the staff throughout the resort! The snorkeling off of our bungalow was amazing and we enjoyed kayaking as well. Those were both complimentary along with the bikes you can ride around the resort. We treated ourselves to a day of relaxation at the Hina Spa and it was the best experience we have ever had at a spa! We loved the location of this resort away from all of the other resorts and the views are breathtaking everywhere you look! We would definitely come back to stay again!

This is my second stay at the Conrad Bora Bora and I’ve got to give Christophe the GM all of the credit in the world. We were not happy with our room this year (felt like we got downgraded) and Christophe (who has only been in the role for a week) went absolutely above and beyond and after a day of coordinating managed to get us into a sunset facing overwater villa. He’s just the nicest person with an awesome demeanor. Thank you Christophe, you’re great!

*We just returned from a week stay here. We were disappointed by the amount of construction still going on at the resort. It definitely takes away from a relaxing atmosphere. We thought most of the construction would be finished by the time we arrived. The hotel was closed for several months for renovations and reopened May 1st. So, we booked our bungalow for the end of May. *We stayed in one of the refurbished overwater bungalows. The room is beautiful and so is the view. However, they are still refurbishing many of the surrounding bungalows so there is some construction noise (hammering, saws, nail-guns). I would say half of the bungalows are being refurbished, so there is no way to escape construction noise. *The French Restaurant IRIATAI was closed for renovations. *All of the shops were closed except the pearl shop. *The TV stations are mostly in French and there is no streaming service. *PROS - The staff and service are wonderful. The food is excellent, but expensive. The new rooms are beautiful, but the TV cabinet at the end of the bed intrudes on the ocean view from the bed. It’s a beautiful resort and very clean. Since only half the rooms are available, it never felt crowded. The beach was our favorite part of the resort. The spa is beautiful with amazing views. * I think the staff is doing their best to accommodate the guests and work around the construction. The concierge team was wonderful. We probably would have stayed somewhere else or booked for next year had we known about the ongoing construction. We made the best of it and had a nice stay, but it wasn’t worth the $25,000 we paid to stay here.

This is going to be one of the most difficult reviews I have ever done. Why, you might ask? The reason is there is much to like and much to dislike about my stay here. A perfect example is with my contact prior to staying. They were great about contacting us, but despite me including my confirmation numbers, they had our arrival date wrong. The lei greeting at the airport was great as was the boat ride to the Conrad. The views are incredible. Sweet Sophie with her adorable Scottish accent was our personal concierge. She was great and very attentive. We then met Ricky (Not Ricky Bobby but Ricky). He is a treasure. A very common thread is the very sweet, kind, helpful people here. I did not encounter a single bad apple. The views of Bora Bora and the sunrises and sunsets from here cannot be beat. The food while very expensive (e.g. $10.50 for a bottle of water) is excellent. We really enjoyed our breakfast each day. The Strawberry Granita is the best breakfast drink I have ever had anywhere in the world. The omelets and French toast are superb. Coffee drinks are included with breakfast. Every evening meal including the Polynesian buffet was delicious with fantastic service. Now I have to address the facility itself. I had already heard that construction delays had happened here and tried to cancel my stay planning to return another time. Hilton would not allow the cancellation. Our initial bungalow was spacious and beautiful, but there were issues. 1. The floor was quite dirty. 2. There was no conditioner. 3. The bicycle seat was pointed upward (not good for an older man in particular). 4. We could not cast to the tv, and the tv had no streaming apps. 5. The curtain was not on the rod properly. 6. Worst of all there was loud construction noise and an unsightly crane. 7. The stores and one restaurant were all closed due to construction. 8. Having come from the Hilton Tahiti and its perfect landscaping we immediately noted the numerous bare areas in the grass and the missing tiles in the walkway. I met with Skyano the manager and shared my concerns. To his credit he listened and tried to fix everything he could. We were moved to a new bungalow. It was very nice, but we lost our view of the sunrise and mountain. We also gained a 24/7 clicking noise that we heard everytime we went out on the deck. The tv here did not cast and had no apps as well. Given the amount of rain and that most channels are French the ability to stream would have been great. The bicycle would not roll without great effort. We also had a strong sewage smell from yesterday afternoon until this morning. They have the thermostat set so that only a mechanic can lower it below 71 degrees. That is inconvenient, because I and my daughter have conditions where we need the temperature low at night. So you might ask why do I still highly recommend the Conrad Bora Bora Nui after all of these problems? There are 3 reasons. 1. The people are incredible. Sky and the whole team are friendly and do their best to help. Kindness goes a long way. 2. The natural beauty here cannot be beat. Very few Bora Bora resorts have the views of this place. 3. The mechanical, construction and landscaping issues are temporary and will be resolved once the construction is through. I should have been allowed to cancel my reservation though, for I paid way too much for things not having been completed.

The Conrad Bora Bora Nui has went above and beyond exceptional for our elopement/first time here! To start, the resort in its self is absolutely gorgeous. From the pool, to the restaurants, to our overwater bungalow was all so mind blowing! The cleanliness, attention to detail, decorations, and set-up really felt so relaxing and that we were at a spa 24/7. Now for the elopement portion, if you were ever thinking about eloping, this is THE PLACE TO DO IT! Esmeralda, our wedding planner/concierge took phenomenal care of us, that we truly felt like royalty! The precision and execution of every big and small event that was planned was astounding! Not to mention the thought, care, and time she put into every piece really showed off her passion for the job. We did the hibiscus package which included a private island ceremony, photographer, dancers, band, officiant, marriage certification, champagne, breakfast by canoe, private dinner, couples massage, romantic turn down service, I mean the list can go on.. by the end of it, Esmeralda felt like family. And not to mention the rest of the staff greeting us and congratulating us every single day was so heart warming that I felt like they all truly cared about our love and our day. Even Kevin, the manager, came out and was excited to meet us the minute we stepped onto the island, and made sure we were having the best day every single day! From Esmeralda, to Kevin, to Poena (the restaurant manager), to every single staff member that works on this resort, I can not thank you enough for a truly stress free, memorable, absolutely beautiful wedding that will last a lifetime! This will go down as one of the best decisions we’ve ever made! Thank you thank you, and perhaps we’ll see you on our first anniversary as a married couple 🥰
