Maupiti is what Bora Bora used to be before it became overly touristy - more authentic, secluded, and affordable. I say this as a Maupiti native.

It’s incredibly remote, flying from the US it’ll take you about 24 hours to set foot on Bora Bora proper but you’ll be in Tahiti in like ~18 hours if you leave from the west coast, so no it’s definitely not accessible basically at all, but you can boat between the islands to a degree once you get there. The ancient Polynesians and their methods for crossing vast distances over water truly are awe inspiring.
