Re: French Polynesia (Tahiti, Bora Bora, etc.) Honeymoons!!!!!!
i just got back from french polynesia. we spent 2 nights at the intercontinental in papeete, tahiti. it is an absolutely beautiful hotel. but the food isn't great and breakfast for 2 people costs $73!! not worth it at all. i wound up filling my plate with bacon and sausage and feeding it to the cats who live there. they are adorable by the way. there is a lady who sits by the pool and sells tahitian jewelery--she is VERY expensive!! keep in mind that 100 FPX is equal roughly to $1 when looking at prices. bargain with her if you buy things, but you'll find stuff much cheaper elsewhere. i bought some stuff and was kicking myself when i went to roadside stands in bora bora and moorea!the pools at the intercontinental are gorgeous, but there is no beach access. you can get into the water if you want, but you mainly swim in the pools. i like that they let you rent a kayak for free for one hour. that was more than enough for us and we loved it.
we had an issue with our room. we had a panoramic ocean front room (decided against an overwater bungalow due to cockroach reports and water noise--and glad we did based on people we met!) which was beautiful. but when we woke up the first day there was an inch of water on our floor! very dangerous! they had to drain the water out of the air conditioner--which meant we couldn't be in our room for 2 hours.
we then got on the tahitian princess for a 12 night cruise--i'm so glad we did because i would have been bored silly in papeete! we went to bora bora, moorea, raiatea, christmas island and 4 islands in hawaii. i liked that so much better than the hotel as there was so much more to do. i toured each island on a land/sea tour and feel like i saw a lot. moorea was my favorite island by far--it's the most beautiful--i liked it much better than tahiti and bora bora even though those are the most famous of the islands.
overall, we had a GREAT time! just a few bumps at the intercontinental.
the flight was kinda miserable. air tahiti nui is great though--we had a non-stop flight there and they have personal tvs with videos and games you can play! and the food is decent. we took AA back and it was torture--absolute torture. no tvs and we were so squished. thank goodness we had an hour stopover in LA! 11 hours is a LONG LONG time to sit in a plane seat!
i can't wait to back to french polynesia! but i will DEFINITELY do it as another cruise and not stay there for a week. i saw so much more that way and got to experience a lot of local culture.

Re: French Polynesia (Tahiti, Bora Bora, etc.) Honeymoons!!!!!!
Great pictures - thanks for posting! Not many of us on here are doing a cruise...we're all pretty much doing Moorea and Bora Bora mostly. If you go back someday you should consider that instead of a cruise to experience the overwater bungalows. I don't think any of us girls on here are staying in Papeete for more than 12 hrs - I wouldn't even stay one night but we have no choice b/c the flights from NY get in so late and there's no transportation to the other islands at that hour. Papeete really is just the city island....not many people spend too much time there. Just fly in and out of there. Sounds like you thought this was the most popular island. I think Moorea and Bora Bora definitely are.Glad you had a nice time. Love the shot of your cruise ship in Moorea.
CONGRATS!!!
