Discover Le Taha’a, an intimate resort on a secluded private islet offering Polynesian elegance, wellness and sustainable luxury.
Location: The resort sits on Motu Tautau, a private islet between the reef and lagoon, about 35 minutes by boat from Raiatea airport, and accessible via short transfer or helicopter from Bora Bora. Its setting feels completely remote and peaceful, offering privacy and spectacular Pacific-Island scenery.
Rooms: Le Taha’a has 59 suites and villas, in traditional Polynesian style. Options range from over-water suites (spacious private accommodations, with your own private deck, direct lagoon access, air-conditioning, and even a minibar) to beach villas with separate living and bedroom spaces, lush tropical gardens, and private plunge pools.
Amenities: The resort includes the Tāvai Spa (with a myriad of rituals and massages), a fitness and wellbeing centre, refined restaurants, and attentive, warm Polynesian hospitality.
Activities: The tranquillity of this motu-based resort invites truly immersive relaxation and discovery. Water-based activities are in abundance, and you can choose from snorkelling in the coral gardens, boat excursions, fishing and kayaking. Alternatively, you can relax on the private motu, explore local vanilla plantations, or engage with local culture and island-life experiences.
Sustainability: Le Taha’a is part of Pearl Resorts’ P.R.O.T.E.C.T environmental charter: prioritising water and energy efficiency, waste reduction, and biodiversity protection. It has replaced in-room plastic bottles with refillable bottles and installed water-fountain stations, helping to save several tonnes of plastic annually. The resort actively partners in coral-nursery conservation and raises guest awareness of environmental preservation.
