The Brando
Immerse yourself in a rare experience at this exceptional eco-hotel, bordering a heavenly lagoon. The Brando, a treasure trove of eco-responsible luxury nestled on the motu of Onetahi, evokes Polynesian refinement. Marlon Brando fell in love with Tetiaroa and made it his home. His dream of an eco-friendly establishment has become a reality with The Brando eco-resort. When you choose to stay here, you are in for an exceptional break in the heart of some of the region’s most sublime natural landscapes.
Our experience
An exceptional place, nestled in a breathtakingly beautiful atoll: stretches of white sand, turquoise lagoon... This establishment is virtually self-sufficient, thanks to its vegetable garden, its air-conditioning system drawing on the depths of the Pacific, its solar panels and its generator running on coconut oil... A perfect marriage of refinement and respect for the environment. A stop at the Brando is a must! (Natalie - Deputy Director).
