Bora Bora, French Polynesia

Referred to as "Eden East" and "Eden West" in the movie, almost the entire film was shot in the luxurious St. Regis Resort. The place is surrounded by fish-filled turquoise lagoons, with the blue-est water, tropical paradise and much more that offers everything from shower spas to overwater villas.

The film also includes scenes of a waterfall that seems to be situated right within the resort. However, as per the guide on Bora Bora Island, the specific scene in the film is possibly shot in the studio, and the location is not part of the island. Also, even the pool that can be seen right in front of the waterfall is not part of St. Regis.
