If the BB Nui is still participating in SPG it now looks like by far the best proposition: if not, then the St Regis would be a good bet if you can get a good price.
Not sure if this is going to be a common thing or just a one time thing. But I stayed at the St. Regis in Bora Bora and the credit for my SPG points didn't show up automatically. Had to send SPG proof that I stayed there since it was a very expensive stay. But the points are now posted to my account.
