Most probably the legend of heaven on earth is true and I found it
right here in the heart of the Pacific....
" (From
Jo FOLEY (LE GUIDE des MEILLEURES SPAS AU MONDE).
It was the brainchild of Hιlθne who
escaped from Paris to immerse herself in the ancestral traditions of
Polynesia and create a spa-with-a-difference in the calming ambience
of pandanus thatched bungalows, set among the trees and flowers of our
gardens.
Hιlθne insists that
her frangipani, hibiscus, jasmine and bougainvillea flowers for the
fresh bath are picked daily. Tropical fruits are crushed and grated
for each treatment to keep their potency. Only the fresh coconut oil
is used and pure spring water is captured from the volcanic heights.
