The Brando

Accommodation Facts
AN ENCHANTING ATOLL OF TWELVE ISLETS The Brando is much more than a hotel. It is the stuff of Robinson Crusoe, of the childhood desert island fantasies that most of us share. Marlon Brando made that dream his own and resolved that Tetiaroa would retain its beauty forever. Tetiaroa is alive with history and energy. Over 4 kilometers wide (2.5 miles), it comprises twelve motu (coral islands, or islets) surrounded by a splendid turquoise lagoon. The motus are a study in diversity. The Brando itself sits on the 78-hectares (193-acres) Motu Onetahi. VARUA TE ORA POLYNESIAN SPA The Varua Te Ora Polynesian Spa is a destination in its own right where beauty and well-being, deeply rooted in Polynesian culture, are the key words. In the heart of a lush oasis of exotic plants covering 2,000 square meters (21,500 ft²), it offers the best holistic treatments inspired by Polynesian traditions. It is here, in the middle of a sanctuary of century-old pandanus, that the Fare Manu (bird’s nest) treatment cabin is located. Perched in the trees 6 meters (20 feet) above the ground, and offering an amazing view of a freshwater lake covered with lotus flowers, it guarantees unforgettable memories. Couples can come to discover the art of the traditional massage, «Taurumi». Therapeutic and spiritual, it maintains and restores internal harmony and balances relationships with others. Our facilities include areas for relaxation, energy (Fare Mana), a hammam, a fresh water cascade and an herbal tea room at the water’s edge. PRIVATE VILLAS The Brando offers 36 private villas, with one to three bedrooms, overlooking Turtle Beach and Mermaid Bay, including the private residence Teremoana on Prince Square. Conceived by architect Pierre-Jean Picard in collaboration with designer Gilles Leborgne, all have in common the space and references to Polynesian traditions. The wooden walls and roofs covered with pandanus leaves are inspired by traditional techniques and materials. Large bay windows offer a divine view of the lush garden planted with coconut palms and «miki miki», as well as the private swimming pools and the azure blue lagoon. Nature gently insinuates herself into the sober and serene interiors. Studied comfort and purity of line reflect the refinement of the property. Each villa has a spacious bedroom and a dressing room, a living room, media room, and a WiFi and BlueTooth connection. The bathroom offers an outdoor bathtub nestled in the heart of a tropical garden. Each roomy wooden terrace has lounge chairs, umbrellas and a freshwater shower, a covered dining area and swimming pool, all leading out onto the white sandy beach. The 36 villas are distributed as follows: 24 One-Bedroom Villas with living room area of 96 m² (1,033 ft²), 56 m² terrace (602 ft²), and private swimming pool of 10 m² (108 ft²).
