Where? On the South Pacific island of Bora Bora in French Polynesia. Sounds seductive? Referred to as the 'island of love', this coconut-and-hibiscus-strewn atoll is Bounty Bar beautiful, with dramatic volcanic crags, a Tiffany-blue lagoon and crushed coral beaches. Must be a hit with honeymooners? Not only is the setting suitably cytherean, but the privacy afforded by Hotel Bora Bora's accommodation allows couples to frisk freely. Tell us more. Well, guests can choose to snuggle up in a variety of rooms, including traditional garden- and ocean-side fares, some of which have private swimming pools and jacuzzis. There are also 15 overwater bungalows stretching into the opalescent depths of the lagoon. What's the decor like? Castaway-chic-meets-eco-luxe. The five-star fares have Tasmanian oak floors, Polynesian artworks and canopied four-poster beds exuding romance - a canny addition since lack of nightlife means guests must make their own entertainment. Who goes there? Pierce Brosnan, Brendan Fraser, Keanu Reeves, John Travolta, Jim Carrey and Jean Paul Belmondo have all been soothed to sleep by the sea, while Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell are reputed to have signed the register 15 times. What's the food like? Build an award-winning hotel in a French colony and you can be sure the cuisine will be delicieux. Apart from the obvious, how do guests work up an appetite? Landlubbers can explore the island's verdant interior, complete with vanilla plantations and pearl farms, by bike or on horseback. Water babies can go diving (the lagoon is home to manta rays, lemon sharks, giant moray eels and turtles), sailing, fishing and canoeing. Anything else we should know? While honeymooners enjoy a sigh-inducing body treatment for two, more seasoned couples can renew their vows on a private sunset cruise.
