"OH MY GOSH, is all we can say! This place is amazing and we highly recommend you put the entire "Bora-Bora" experience on your Bucket List. Starting with Laure, our "butler". You must request here. She is everything and everywhere. She is gracious, thoughtful and caring and saw to our every need and then some. She speaks French, English and German. Along with her colleague, Julian, we were WELL taken care of. Though we recommend taking day excursions you will find everything you need right on the campus of St Regis to fill your every need. And, by the way, the water color, warm temperature and clarity are true to the pictures. Though we love Hawaii, THIS St Regis experience (a lot of it was due to Laure's expertise) we feel like Bora Bora trumps even the beauty of Hawaii. Pack your bags!!"

"We stayed for 4 nights from the 13th of April in a beach side villa with pool facing the lagoon including breakfast. We wish we would have stayed for a week. We were allocated villa 402 and our main butler was Emma (she worked from 1400-2200 and Le’Andre was around in the mornings). Emma took us on a tour of the resort on arrival before we checked in, showing us where everything was and explained the resort. The villa was huge, with its own pool and hammock in the garden. The room had slippers, robes, beach towels, umbrellas, ponchos and assigned bikes. There was a safe and a fridge to use and also turn down service in the evenings. We loved having our French press coffee back in the garden after breakfast. Breakfast was good, the only gluten free items on the buffet though were bread, no pastries/cakes/biscuits or cereal/granola, you could ask for pancakes or waffles to me made, so this would be a nice touch to add, all items had allergen labels. We saw no marine life outside of the hotels private lagoon which is in the middle of the resort where you can snorkel and meet Moana, have never seen a fish like him, huge! We took out a canoe and paddle board; there is no time limit restriction placed on you which was nice. You will need your mosquito spray, day, and night. We did the sunset cruise on vitamin sea and a morning half day snorkel tour with manta and then eagle rays, we could not recommend them both enough, the top 2 tours of our entire trip. We ate in Lagoon, the Grill, the Italian and started in Bamboo but I wasn’t feeling well, we had the starter delivered and the mains were about to come out when we asked to cancel them, the staff could not have been more helpful or concerned. They only charged us for the starter, we fully expected to pay for it all as It was ready, this was exceptional service. I found the Italian the most limiting as I am gluten and dairy free, the others were able to accommodate my needs easily whereas the Italian was pasta and tomato sauce, they didn’t even bring out gluten free bread which was a little disappointing as the others had. The food was good in all restaurants, but don’t expect large portions. We were in Bora Bora as a delayed birthday celebration as was meant to go in 2020, Emma had a cake delivered as a surprise to commemorate the occasion, such a lovely surprise (and it was gluten/vegan!) We asked for a late check out, but we were unable to stay in our room as was booked for new guests, this was the morning we went on the snorkelling tour. They did however move our luggage to another room, a beach side villa 509 on the other side facing the ocean whilst we were out so we could use that when we got back from 1200 until 1330 where our boat back to the airport was at 1400. There was no charge for this, and they were very helpful in arranging this for us, it enabled us to make full use of our last morning. Our only tips for improvement on perfection would be to supply refillable water bottles with water stations around the resort (you do get about 4 small bottles of water per person in your room each day) to help save on plastic use, have more gluten free items on the buffet at breakfast that you can help yourself too ( I don’t like feeling like a burden asking for special items) and a washing line in the bathroom to hang wet swim wear on as there was nowhere to do this. We would highly recommend the beach villa over the water bungalow, especially as very little marine life to spot. Having our own pool and hammock to lay in was just bliss. We got to see both beach villas on each side of the resort, the ones on the ocean side were slightly bigger with a larger pool (which was colder) but was windy as fully exposed to the ocean, the lagoon side was very calm, and the pool was a nice temperature to use. We preferred the lagoon side. We were sad to leave and hope to return one day. Thank you so much Emma and team."

"The St Regis delivers A true once in a lifetime experience... This Resort is truly a special in every sense of the word. The location is breathtaking, and every part of the property feels absolutely world-class. The rooms, restaurants, pools, beaches, and overall grounds are immaculate, beautifully maintained. What truly sets the resort apart, however, is the staff. Every single person we encountered was exceptional—warm, attentive, professional, and genuinely focused on making every moment of our stay unforgettable. Their attention to detail and ability to anticipate guests’ needs is remarkable. A special thank you to Jenna, who was absolutely outstanding and helped make our trip even more memorable. She and EVERYONE we encountered embodied the level of hospitality that makes this resort so extraordinary. The St. Regis Bora Bora delivers exactly the experience you dream about when imagining a luxury Bora Bora vacation. It exceeded our expectations in every way, and we cannot wait to return. (ps. Make sure to get morning coffee delivered and your shirts pressed. You can skip the Private Beach dinner. BUT make sure to book dinner at the lagoon restaurant.) (make sure to pet the onsite cat "regis")"

"I need more stars. This resort is amazing. The staff goes over and beyond the call of duty. They recognized me at the airport and immediately went over my preferences. The villa was perfection. I only wish there were more food options for lunch. Definitely visit Bamboo for dinner more than once. It has the best food on the property. Our butler was also amazing."
