Good to Know
Amanzoe
- The beach club and hillside pavilions are a genuine shuttle ride apart — factor that into how you plan your days.
- About 2.5 hours by car from Athens, or a shorter transfer via the resort's private helicopter option.
- Best May through October; many facilities scale back or close over winter.
Four Seasons Resort Bora Bora
- The resort is closed for a phased renovation through the property's stated 2026 timeline, reopening with a smaller, higher-spec villa count — check status before booking.
- Nearest airport is Bora Bora (BOB); the resort transfer is by private boat across the lagoon.
- Whale-watching season (August–November) is a genuine reason to time a trip around, not just a marketing line.
