Looks like a top notch place -- is it worth Category 6 points or whatever XPF 104,000.00 equates to in USD?
I stayed here last July for my honeymoon and it was fabulous. THe easiest way to calculate the XPF is to take off two zeros. SO it would be $1040 US. It is very expensive but for something special it is so worth it! I stayed using points and was upgraded to an overwater bungalow. I think they have changed the amount of points required because all of the rooms are suites. We also spent one week at the Sheraton Moorea and it was great too and much less expensive. The rooms are not as luxurious but it was still so nice. We were upgraded to an overwater bungalow there too. If at all possible try to stay in an over water bungalow. If you decide to do both definitely do Moorea first and save Bora Bora for last. Also, check out spa finder magazine this month they have a great section on both hotels. It is truly the trip of a lifetime!
