On Marlon Brando’s Private Island: an Eco Resort

A luxury eco resort opens mid-2014 on this beautiful atoll of Tetiaroa on the 10th anniversary of the death of the legendary actor Marlon Brando, who became a recluse on this island mysteriously in mid career.

It won’t be cheap reliving the life of a legendary movie star. Rates start at 3,000 euros for a one-bedroom villa.

Not easy landing on an atol either. Perhaps you’ll parachute in from your private plane.

Then you can simply glide in by paddle board, the most utterly idyllic mode of transportation ever.

James will surely go out and fetch your parachutes for you.

Once on the bewitching island you can relive a little of the Hollywood glamour of getting away from it all a la Brando.

Softly rounded pebbles will form the floor of an indoor/outdoor bathroom in this evocative piece of paradise.

Far from the madding crowds of the movie industry red carpet, here you will reconnect to nature in a native-inspired polynesian hut.

Each of the privileged few fortunate enough to laze here will have their own little grass shack.

Luckily for such an isolated resort in such pristine surroundings, each of the little grass shacks is energy self-sufficient.

A solar roof keeps the lights on and the fridge cool.

The villas are powered by 100% renewable energy.

But the traditional roofing on the ceiling reminds you that you are not far from Tahiti in French Polynesia.
