Tetiʻaroa (French, officially: Tetiaroa, [tetjaʁɔa]) is an atoll in the Windward group of the Society Islands of French Polynesia, an overseas territorial collectivity of France in the Pacific Ocean. Administratively, it is part of the commune of Arue. Once a holiday location for Tahitian royalty, the islets are under a 99-year lease signed by the actor Marlon Brando, and are home to The Brando Resort, sublet to the Brando family.
