Spotlight on: Motu Nao Nao
Ra’iatea is not what we would call a beach destination in The Islands of Tahiti.
Indeed, on the main island, rivers, rich valleys and imposing green mountains proudly make the Sacred Island a temple of reconnection with nature’s wilderness and history.
However, off the coast of Ra’iatea, surrounded by crystal-clear cerulean waters, a delicate sanctuary lies, hidden like a pearl in her shell.
Motu Nao Nao extends on 61,7 acres (25 hectares) of preserved environment and was designed with the most discerning traveler in mind.
On this tropical oasis, visitors can escape from the high demands and confines of everyday life and rejoice in nature’s generous gifts.
This private island features 3 elegant bungalows handcrafted by local designer Alain Fleurot. Each villa, accommodating 2 guests, has been developed to reflect the majestic beauty of the surrounding grounds, making each an exclusive haven where one can retreat to uninterrupted serenity and rejuvenation.
At Motu Nao Nao, all the senses come alive, from the dreamy sights to the exotic scents, the colorful underwater fauna and the infinite lagoon, the sweet caress from the ocean breeze, and the creative culinary experiences.
Using mostly locally sourced ingredients, cuisine in this heavenly cocoon is re-invented in incomparable ways and invites in nature’s alchemy.
Motu Nao Nao is like a canoe floating above the lagoon, ready to take wander lusters on amazing adventures.
We love:
- The movie theatre under the stars
- The amazing food scene!
- The responsible ethos and variety of non-motorized activities available
