Our life style: genuinely Polynesian, purely authentic! The Owners’ wish was to keep the resort as natural and as green as possible. The whole resort was built around the existing vegetation. You will discover beautiful old trees, colorful flowers and plants, something quite unusual on a “motu”, thanks to the use of seaweed as fertilisers. You will see no club cars travelling around the property. The setting is all harmony with nature… Serene…
