What the reviews say

This being a world-class 5-star resort, it’s not surprising the reviews are nearly all gushing with praise. Guests mention how large the rooms are and how everything is top quality. The only criticism, understandably, is the price, as the InterContinental Bora Bora Resort is among the most expensive resorts in the South Pacific.

Getting there
