About this property

Gorgeous Over Water Bungalow in Bora Bora. Perfect spot Honeymooners & Families

Welcome to Over Water Bungalow « TAHATAI ITI » your vacation paradise in Bora Bora!
This very exclusive over water bungalow overlooks the crystal blue waters of the lagoon and offers incredible romantic sunsets as well as a lot of privacy making it the perfect spot for both honeymooners and families.
This unique over water bungalow (1200 square-foot -110 m2) is part of a famous luxury complex started by the famous American actors Marlon Brando and Jack Nicholson. There are only 5 privately owned over water bungalows in Bora Bora. 2 out of the 5 were the property of Marlon Brando, another one was the property of his very good friend Jack Nicholson and our over water bungalow is next to the one that Jack Nicholson used to own.

Our over water bungalow accomodation includes 2 bedrooms with air conditioning and with their own separate bathroom, a modern full kitchen fit for a chef, a spacious living room and a large covered terrace-lanai overlooking the lagoon.

Enjoy the placid waters of the lagoon with its extraordinary colourful tropical fish allowing endless snorkeling in turquoise and pristine warm waters! If you wish to take a dip in the warm waters, nothing could be simpler. Just go down to your private dock and dive in.
Our over water bungalow is the perfect location for snorkeling and swimming and the bungalow comes with 3 kayaks.

Tahiti, the port of entry of French Polynesia is linked by non stop scheduled flights to Los Angeles, San Francisco, NZ, Japan, Hawaii, Australia and with one stop to Paris and most european cities. From Tahiti, a 45-minute-flight takes you to Bora Bora.
There are 2 domestic airline companies in French Polynesia: Air Tahiti and Air Moana. Both airlines link Tahiti with Bora Bora. You can directly book your flights online on their dedicated website.

The plane from Tahiti lands in Bora Bora on motu mute, an offshore islet.Then a free shuttle brings you across the lagoon to Vaitape, Bora Bora's main village. On the wharf in Vaitape, you will pick up your rental car and drive in 15 minutes to our house.

Car rental
Because there is no public transport service on Bora Bora, you need to rent a car to be independant on the island during your stay . It is essential to go shopping, to go to the restaurant or to visit Bora Bora. You can directly book your rental car online on AVIS car rental company website which is the most reliable car rental company in Bora Bora. I don't recommend renting an electric car because there are no electric charging points near the parking lot of our house. I also don't recommend renting scooters because they are not powerful enough to get to our upper parking lot and it is very difficult to carry your food purchase on a scooter to the house.

This piece of paradise is very much in demand. So book early in advance your South Pacific vacation and contact us today !
With the pleasure to have you as guests at our over water bungalow « TAHATAI ITI »!

We had an amazing stay at this overwater bungalow! From the moment we booked until check-out, the host provided exceptional communication and information. Pierre helped with everything from arrival details and rental car recommendations to restaurant suggestions and local tips, making our trip completely stress-free.The bungalow itself had everything we needed and more. We loved having access to kayaks, and the snorkeling right off the deck was incredible. The location felt very private, and waking up each morning with a cup of coffee while watching the boats, stingrays, and colorful fish was truly unforgettable.The only minor downside was that the bed and pillows were a little too firm for our liking. However, that was far outweighed by all the positives.Overall, this was a fantastic experience, and we would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful, relaxing overwater bungalow stay!

An unbelievable stay in a stunning location. We loved lounging on the deck and snorkelling in the lagoon. The bungalow was spotless and comfortable. It was peaceful and perfect, and honestly much more appealing than the commercialized resorts. It was a trip of a lifetime for us, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have stayed here.

I cannot say enough good things about this place, Pierre and the whole experience renting this bungalow.I have been using VRBO for almost 20 years. Pierre was one of the most helpful owners. His communication was excellent and very thorough with plenty of thoughtful tips on how to make the most of your stay in Bora Bora.My friends and I were so pleased with the information and the location is great.There are some really healthy corals right off the deck and a really precautious octopus living around one of the pillars of the bungalow.

As soon as we saw the bungalow we were so impressed! We liked the location since it was away from the big resorts. The water below the bungalow was clear and there were colorful fish all around. The bungalow was clean, well appointed, and we felt very comfortable there. Everything was as described and we appreciated all the amenities. We would certainly recommend this lovely accommodation!
