Bora Bora – merely speaking these evocative
words surely conjure up dreamy images of
Heaven on earth. And justifiably so, for Bora
Bora is, one of the world’s most mystical places
to visit. Now, for a very fortunate few Bora Bora
lovers, a chance to actually OWN their own slice
of Paradise!
The incredibly crystalline, turquoise lagoon
is set in a perfect oval, encircling the towering
Mt. Oteman’u, sits in the cobalt-blue Pacific,
and altogether creates a serene, tranquil oasis
of luxury.
James Michener appointed this fair queen of
an isle as “the most beautiful island in the world”
decades ago, and still, to this day, the island
transfixes every one lucky enough to behold
Bora Bora.
Up until very recently, Bora Bora was available
to foreign visitors only for short visits. It was
mostly starry-eyed honeymooners that ventured
to this South Seas getaway to enjoy the ultruluxe
hotels in Bora Bora, and revel in their glorious,
unique overwater bungalows.
New developments in French Polynesia have
now made it possible for a fortunate few to buy
property located adjacent to the Four Season
Bora Bora Resort, located Motu Tehotu, a small
islet on Bora’s northeastern barrier reef.
Accessed upon the internet under “Own
Bora Bora,” this is truly a rare and unique “one
of a kind” opportunity. Just 15 parcels of land,
ranging from ½ to 1 ½ acre lots, are available.
Eight lots face the Pacific Ocean with its tranquil
sea breezes, and the remaining seven front the
dreamy Bora Bora lagoon, with its quintessentially
recognizable Mt. Oteman’u taking center
stage.
Home designs are by Toronto designer firm
Yabu Pushelberg, and will feature traditional a
free-flowing architectural floor plan, with such
Polynesian details as thatched pandanus roofs,
rough-hewn beams, limestone walls, natural
colored textiles and, of course, infinity edged
swimming pools.
All are full ownership private residences, says
Jim Jacobson, the company’s Director of Global
Sales, adding that perhaps as many as five home
sites are already under serious consideration.
Property taxes are low in French Polynesia
to begin with, continues Jacobson, and a further
tantalizing extra is that developer Thierry Barbion
has paid more than five years of the development’s
property taxes in advance.
Interested buyers will be asked to fill out a
simple, two-page foreign investment application
form.
The home sites are connected to the nearby
Four Seasons Resort, reached by a pleasant,
other-worldly quarter mile mile walk. Or call the
hotel’s Concierge for a golf cart ride, if you wish.
Five floor plans are offered, Pearl, Presidential,
Villa, Lagoon and Pacific, from smallest to
largest.
Prices for the lots range from $3,000,000 to
$7,000,000 and construction costs are estimated
from $3.6 million for the smaller floor plans to
$17,000,000 for the massive 11,500-square foot
oceanfront floor plans.
Pricey, to be sure, but as John Lactot,
the project’s VP of Sales and Marketing says:
“you’ve entered the stratosphere. This is Bora
Bora, Four Seasons and there’s only 15. Once
they’re gone, they’re gone!”
Act fast, now, or forever bid adieu to owning
a slice of Paradise, Bora Bora style
