Who has been or going for their HM? Which islands? Where are you staying?

Me:

1 night Tahiti Intercontinental (garden view room)
4 nights Moorea Pearl Resort (beach bungalow)
5 nights Bora Bora Pearl Resort (2 nights garden pool bungalow & 3 nights overwater bungalow!)

**We're now staying 10 nights (added an extra night in Bora Bora) b/c of the flight cancellation!!

I thought it was the lagoon and not the ocean off the OWB's???




Well, yes, technically it is the lagoon. What I meant is that the little critters can swim wherever they want!




I don't like critters!!!!

Hey ladies,

After much researching DH and I finally booked our honeymoon to FP.

1 night Tahiti Intercontinental - Garden Bungalow
5 night Moorea Sheraton - Garden Bungalow
2 nights Bora Bora Pearl - Garden Pool Suite
2 nights Bora Bora Pearl - OWB

SOOOOOO Excited.
Also so worried about what I hear is very expensive food. I keep teasing DH that we are going to be eating baloney sandwiches while enjoying our OWB

while in bb, you should try your best to get a free upgrade and get all 4 nights in the OWB. I'm sure they will make an accomodation. You are afterall, on your honeymoon!

Good luck!

Thanks ladies. And thanks for all the great info on this thread.

BTW, I found a forum on www.tahitiexplorer.com all about french polynesia. You can get lots of info and advice from people who visit there frequently, or even live there.

I have not heard anything about bugs in the garden bungalow. FH and i are aslo staying at the moorea pearl in a garden bungalow with private pool. You could always call the resort and ask them if they have had a problem with bugs. Anyhow, as soon as we get to the Pearl, we are going to ask for a room upgrade..

You can try looking up information and reviews on the hotels on www.tahitiexplorer.com and www.tripadvisor.com - I have found both sites very helpful.

Congrats - sounds like a great trip. The Bora Bora Nui looks really nice & luxurious!

I'm also staying in the garden bung. with pool at Moorea Pearl - I've also heard about the bug problems......and those darn roosters! They better not wake me up too early every morning. Although I'm sure it won't be an issue - I hear you go to sleep early there so you're up pretty early. There's just more of a bug problem with those bungalows b/c you're in a garden. I'm sure it'll be fine though

About 99% of people there will be on their honeymoon! There is really no chance of any free upgrades... so i've read.
