InterContinental Bora Bora & Thalasso Spa

Every villa sits directly over the lagoon, with a glass panel in the floor so you can watch fish drift beneath your coffee table without leaving the air conditioning. This overwater bungalow resort on its own private motu has 88 suites on stilts, three restaurants running from French fine dining to al fresco Mediterranean, a thalasso spa, and a dive center for when the view from inside the villa isn't quite immersive enough. It holds a Forbes Four Star.
