Awesome - thanks for the great review. We are thinking about staying at the St. Regis Bora Bora Nui - did you happen to see it or visit?
No, sorry... we didn't visit any other hotels because most of them are located on their own private motus like ours was.

I love your pictures. It's sooo beautiful there. I've been trying to convince my FH to go there for our HM but it seems too pricey. Would you mind giving me some info regarding your package deal?
We used MSW Travel (a vendor on this site) and they quoted us $7800 for 7 nights, 8 days. On top of that I would add approx. $100 per day per person for food (depending on whether or not you get a meal plan) and then add your spending money for activities on top of that. All the activities there are really expensive: the jeep tours, helicopter tours, scuba, jet ski rental, etc etc all run into the hundreds. To give you an example, we booked a private horseback riding tour on a private beach and it was over $500. BUT, the hotels also provide lots of free activities and we got a shark feeding excursion included in our package when we booked.
ETA: You can save money by getting a non-premium OWB or even a beach bungalow. The beach bungalows had their own private pools.

Re: My mini-review of our BORA BORA Honeymoon!! (W/Pics!)
Wow! How amazing! I wanted to go there, but we paid for our own wedding and right after the wedding my DH started 2 years of full time business school to get his MBA (where we're racking up school debt) so there was no way we could go! Some day...

Re: My mini-review of our BORA BORA Honeymoon!! (W/Pics!)
Thank you so much for posting your review....We are still trying to decide on our Honeymoon. The French Polynesians being one option (others Seychelles and Fuji) and it really helped hearing about it first hand!
