VERIFIED LUXURY
Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

InterContinental
Bora Bora Resort and Thalasso Spa appears like a happy accident amid a tangle
of a thousand hues of blue. The French Polynesia hotel hardly seems real at
first glimpse — it’s more like a fantastical mirage rising from the sea.
You arrive
to the resort by boat transfer, already seduced by the clarity of the
mirror-like lagoon. Perhaps en route, you spotted a leaping manta ray or a
school of dolphins.
Now, the
resort beckons, a fantasy island with undulating piers stretching from the
shore, each holding a collection of spacious overwater villas. With 88 suites
on stilts, this luxury hotel caters to those seeking romantic seclusion.
Each
capacious room with a living area (complete with a see-through floor beneath
the coffee table), an ocean-view bathroom and floor-to-ceiling windows in the
bedroom (which leads to a two-tier deck) sits above what can only be described
as your personal swimming pool.
A stylish
hotel with Tahiti’s signature French twist, the posh, but laidback escape has
three restaurants, an inviting pool and beach and a lavish spa.
