Love Is In The Air – St. Regis, Bora Bora

I’ll admit it was the promise of full size Acqua di Parma bath products that drew me to the St. Regis Bora Bora, but it was the glass bottom overwater bungalows and beautiful scenery that made me return. The St. Regis does luxury and romance better than anyone. It all starts when they pick you up at the Bora Bora airport and whisk you to the property in a private speedboat. Your luggage travels in its own boat and somehow arrives in your villa before you do. The overwater bungalows are the largest in French Polynesia and perhaps the most beautiful. At night the Milky Way sits low and directly above the resort that you think you can reach out and actually grab a handful of stars. While you’re at it, reach out and grab your Valentine for there’s no more romantic spot in the world to celebrate love than in this luxe tropical resort. Just ask Eva Longoria and Tony Parker who vacationed there while Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban honeymooned a few villas away.
