A private, romantic reading of Bora Bora — designed entirely for two.

Few places on earth pair a caldera peak, a ring of coral motus and a lagoon this luminous, all arranged for private, unhurried days.

The Bora Bora Honeymoon — Bora Bora & French Polynesia

When to go

May through October brings the dry, cooler season, when the lagoon turns its clearest turquoise and skies stay reliably open. Your advisor times it to the light, the crowds and your own calendar.

The experiences

A sense of what this journey can hold — each one arranged privately and shaped to you:

  • A private sunset cruise across the lagoon, with a chilled table set for two on deck.
  • A secluded picnic on your own coral motu, arranged and staffed entirely out of sight.
  • A couples spa ritual in an overwater pavilion, timed to the light on Mount Otemanu.
  • A dawn swim from your villa steps into the lagoon before anyone else is stirring.

A sense of the rhythm

These are days built around the two of you and very little else. Mornings open slowly from an overwater villa, afternoons drift between the lagoon and the shade of the deck, and evenings are yours to choose. Nothing is scheduled that you have not asked for.

Bora Bora or Tetiaroa for the honeymoon?

Bora Bora gives you the iconic lagoon, the overwater villa and Mount Otemanu framed from your terrace. Tetiaroa trades that silhouette for near-total seclusion on a private atoll. Many couples give themselves both, beginning in Bora Bora and closing somewhere quieter.

How to do it well

The counsel our advisors give travelers planning this journey:

  • Request a villa on the sunset side of the lagoon for the finest evening light.
  • Let us hold your arrival flight loosely so you land rested rather than rushed.
  • Reserve the private motu picnic early; the best days book well ahead in high season.
  • Keep one full day entirely unplanned, and tell us the night before what it should hold.

What only your advisor can open

The difference between a good trip and an unrepeatable one is access — and access is a relationship, not a booking. Every guide, room and moment is chosen and sequenced for you.

Who it's for

Travelers who value privacy, time and doing it once — beautifully — and who would rather have one trusted advisor orchestrate every detail than assemble it themselves.

Estimated investment

From US$21,000 per traveler, based on double occupancy — scaled to your dates, party size and level of privacy. A starting point, not a final quote; confirmed once your advisor tailors the itinerary.

Designed entirely around you

Nothing here is a package. A Forest Travel advisor shapes the whole journey and stays one message away before and throughout your trip.

Common Questions

Questions, answered.

We suggest 7-9 days to do it without rushing — enough for the private guiding, the unhurried mornings and a little room to simply be there. Your advisor tunes the length to your calendar and pace.

As a private, tailored journey it starts from roughly US$21,000 per traveler (double occupancy) and scales with your dates, party and level of privacy — a starting point, never a fixed package price. Your advisor confirms the figure once the itinerary is tailored.
