    The Brando

    Contact the agency

    Guardian of Tetiaroa

    The Brando is an intimate and luxurious resort nestled on the stunning private island of Tetiaroa in French Polynesia, some fifty kilometres north-east of Tahiti. This is an atoll accessible solely by private plane, comprising 12 islets, or «motus» in Tahitian, surrounded by a turquoise lagoon of breathtaking beauty. You arrive on the eponymous private island aboard a private aircraft operated by Air Tetiaroa, departing from Tahiti. A splendid flight of barely 20 minutes allows you to take in the private atoll that will be yours. The Brando is a collection of 36 private villas with one to four bedrooms that blend wonderfully into the vegetation, featuring understated interiors crafted from local materials. Each villa opens onto a private pool and beach. Dive into translucent waters frequented by sea turtles and manta rays. Allow yourself to be tempted by a traditional Tahitian treatment at the Varua Spa. Savour dishes created by Chef Pierre Lecorne using organic produce from the vegetable garden. Enjoy the breath-taking view from the bar while sipping a cocktail. The Brando has been designed to reflect the best of Polynesian culture while respecting the environment, a successful wager for an extraordinary stay.

    THE EXTRAORDINARY

    Marlon Brando discovered Tetiaroa during the filming of “Mutiny on the Bounty”. He immediately fell under the spell of this island of rare beauty that seemed to bring him closer to paradise. With his friend Bailey, he wanted to create the world's first zero-carbon-footprint resort. An island where innovative new technologies would enable guests, residents and researchers to live independently in a luxurious environment. The Brando is the legacy of this shared vision.

    ETHICS

    The Brando demonstrates a genuine commitment to environmental protection, such as producing air conditioning via seawater air conditioning or using solar panels and renewable energies. Its carbon footprint is close to zero. The villas are fitted out with recycled materials and locally sourced produce to support the indigenous economy and respect the environment.
