The Spa at Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora

Just thinking about the tropical paradise in French Polynesia is enough to relax anyone on the go. But no visit to the Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora is complete without a visit to their spa. The Kahaia Spa Suite is a personal oasis that floats above a secluded lagoon lined with palm trees and distant views of Mount Otemanu. The indoor/outdoor experience features a rain shower and soaking tub big enough for sharing. And just when you think they couldn’t think of anything else, you lie down on one of the the treatment beds, which have glass windows below where you can gaze onto views of the water, letting yourself relax a little further. The signature treatment at the spa is the Kahaia Haven Ritual. The skin-smoothing body treatment, begins with cleansing using naturally exfoliating kahaia body scrub, legendary Tahitian black pearl powder and native vanilla. Once the skin is prepared, you will receive a massage of your choice. This experience concludes with a holistic and de-stressing Water and Light express facial.
