I'm so happy to share with you the honeymoon options I've customized for the two of you. I've tried to take into account your wishes:
- A relaxing and luxurious two-week trip to Bora Bora

This Bora Bora resort is set on Motu Piti A‘au, with a stunning view of Mount Otemanu, and features a thalasso therapy spa and a coral garden. You'll arrive to the remote island location by boat and immediately see the unique overwater accommodations, seemingly floating on the pristine waters. Each villa has its own remarkable view out to the clear waters of the lagoon, along with sundecks, direct access to the lagoon and an uninhibited view of the marine life below.

You'll arrive at Conrad Hilton Bora Bora Nui Resort & Spa by boat, since it is located on a rocky motu (lagoon island). Greeted by ukulele players, you'll disembark at an overwater reception area set over a natural aquarium where shoals of trumpet fish swim. Across the water over a walkway, and just behind the beach, the resort's restaurants, bars, and lounges sit in Polynesian-style buildings surrounded by tropical gardens. Bungalows nestle on the hillside or overwater along an 800-metre white-sand beach. At night, spotlights on the hillside trees, through the gardens, and in the lagoon itself provide a romantic ambiance.
Soak in stunning views of the island and lagoon from the private waterside balcony of this overwater villa. Relax on the outdoor catamaran nets.
These elegant over water villas feature high ceilings, exotic polynesian inspired decor, Indonesian mahogany furnishings, king canopy beds, sitting area with glass floor-viewing panels, internet access, DVD/CD players and Italian marble bathroom and private balcony.

Fishing, parasailing, water skiing, and sailing are other lagoon-based options. Jeep and quad safaris, horse riding, and four-wheel driving excursions penetrate the island's mountainous interior.
