Originally
built by film-maker Dino de Laurentis for the film Hurricane,
the Sofitel Marara is located on Point Matira and commands an
expansive stretch of beach. The hotel has a choice of overwater,
garden and beachfront bungalows. Known for its extremely welcoming
Polynesian atmosphere, this resort is an excellent choice if
you are looking for something less than the "ultra luxury"
of many of Bora Bora's resorts. Activities include tennis, snorkeling
and a range of optional excursions. Honeymooners are greeted
with a fruit platter upon arrival.
