Fodor's Expert Review Villa Corallina

This villa should satisfy those who want to "get away from it all." It's on Motu Fareone, a little island minutes off the northwest coast. If you require a bit of action (supermarket, bars, restaurants), take the daily shuttle back to the main island. Four or five people could easily inhabit the spacious 3,000 square feet that include lounge, kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and a separate master bedroom suite (750 square feet) serviced daily by housekeeping staff. The villa's decor is unmistakably "South Seas," with bamboo and rattan walls and furniture and tropical print fabrics. Varnished bamboo poles support the kitchen and bathroom. A one-bedroom cottage is located a few hundred feet away in the garden, and this can be rented if the villa is not occupied. Minimum stay is four nights, and three nights at the cottage. Pricing depends on the number of people staying, starting at US$390 (32,672 CFP) per night for the one-bedroom main villa for two people.
