A sense of the place
Why it's in the collection
Because the house stands alone on Marlon Brando's atoll, twenty minutes by air from Papeete, with beachfront villas on the motu of Onetahi cooled by seawater and run on the sun, Les Mutinés for dinner and the reef and the birds beyond the lagoon — and the house holds five-star standing.
- On the motu of Onetahi on Tetiaroa, the private atoll north of Tahiti; an independent house of Pacific Beachcomber.
- Beachfront villas; seawater cooling and solar power; Les Mutinés, the Beachcomber Café and Nami; the lagoon and the bird islets.
- Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star 2026 for the hotel; Three MICHELIN Keys in the 2025 selection; holds five-star standing.
