Britney Spears found a slice of paradise in French Polynesia.
In the weeks leading up to the release of her highly anticipated memoir, the Princess of Pop escaped to the luxurious Brando resort, sources tell Page Six.
The renowned, five-star retreat is located on Tetiaroa, a 2.3-square-mile atoll in the Pacific Ocean that is accessible only by taking a 20-minute flight via private jet from the nearby island of Tahiti.
“She wanted to get away before the inevitable chaos of the book coming out,” one insider exclusively shares. “It was a much-needed and perfectly timed getaway.”

Spears’ tell-all, “The Woman in Me,” hit stores in October 2023 and included bombshell revelations such as her secret pregnancy and abortion during her relationship with Justin Timberlake as well as the tribulations she endured under her 13-year conservatorship.
While staying at The Brando, the “Toxic” singer posed for her first magazine cover in five years featuring the stunning backdrop of a white-sand beach.
A second source describes the shoot as “incredibly casual,” noting, “It was important to Britney that it not feel too structured. She has trauma from Hollywood, so she wanted to highlight how breezy life has been since she became a free woman [when her conservatorship ended in November 2021].”

The Brando, which opened in July 2014 and has also hosted Kim Kardashian and Leonardo DiCaprio, offered plenty of activities for Spears and the small group of friends who traveled with the Grammy winner, from relaxing spa treatments to swimming in the crystal-clear water and indulging in local cuisine.
The energy-efficient resort boasts 35 villas just off the beach, each of which is surrounded by tropical foliage for ultimate privacy, with high-end amenities such as big-screen TVs, infinity pools and spacious decks with lounge chairs.
“There’s no need for a white noise machine when you have the breezes, ocean wavelets lapping and the sound of rainfall on the thatched roof, all of which make your stay about as peaceful as it gets,” The Brando’s website reads.

The picturesque hotspot also has one large private residence called Teremoana, which we’re told Spears and her pals stayed in.
The two-story, 3,000-square-foot home has three en suite bedrooms, a kitchen with a large island, a sandy area with a hammock and a dedicated butler to assist with guests’ needs, according to the site.
While The Brando does not list its prices online (and a rep for the resort did not respond to Page Six’s request for comment), Elite Traveler reported that the Teremoana Residence costs $23,400 a night.

The late Marlon Brando’s estate famously owns Tetiaroa on a 99-year lease.
The Oscar-winning actor first learned of the atoll during a hike in Tahiti while filming the 1962 movie “Mutiny on the Bounty” and quickly became fascinated with its dedication to renewable resources and organic farming.
“Marlon’s intent,” The Brando’s site reads, “was always to honor and respect the land, the Tahitians that came before him and the people who come after him.”
