You, too, can honeymoon like Nicole Kidman

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are
honeymooning at the new St. Regis Bora Bora.


    According to Sydney’s Daily Telegraph, the newlyweds are staying in the luxury $15,000 a night U.S. Royal Estate at the new St. Regis resort.


    Kidman and Urban are among the first guests of the Royal Estate over-water bungalow in the resort, which just opened a few weeks ago.


    The massive over-water villa boasts a 24-hour butler service, an in-room Jacuzzi and a room with a private swimming pool.

And to think, part of my own honeymoon was just at the nearby Bora Bora Nui Resort & Spa. But then that was the most posh property on the island at the time, the St. Regis only just opened this month. And I had the room next to where Christina Applegate honeymooned, though didn’t she recently file for divorce?

The Nui used to be the most expensive points redemption property in all of Starwood, but it has since been surpassed by both the St. Regis Bora Bora and by the new W Maldives.

The best paid rate plan at the St. Regis is SPG25, or 25% off rack, and is only available on certain dates. For those redeeming awards, I believe a room here is 70,000 Starpoints a night (with fifth night free) in low season but I haven’t verified the total. When I stayed at the Nui an Overwater Bungalow as 44,000 points a night (also low season) but the amount there is now 50,000.

That’s a lot of points, but you too can honeymoon like Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban.

Update: Eva Longoria is there too.
