Forget the frills on Bora-Bora
Air-conditioning, satellite TV, Italian marble bathtubs, silver fixtures, hot tubs. On Bora-Bora? The attraction on a tropical island is not air-conditioning but trade winds, not TV but the view from the window or balcony of your room, not a marble bathtub but a rock waterfall shower. Provide creature comforts but do not insulate me from the paradise I’m paying dearly to experience, as the Bora Bora Nui has done.
