Re: French Polynesia (Tahiti, Bora Bora, etc.) Honeymoons!!!!!!

Hi girls.....I'M BOOKED!!!!! Special thanks to all you girls...especially CaMacho-JESS - couldn't have done it without you answering all my annoying questions! Thank you for all the tips and advice

So I went back and forth like 10 times with different itineraries...it was a hard decision but I'm happy with the one we made...here it is:

Direct flight to Papeete - Monday
1night Tahiti Intercontinental garden room
2 nights Moorea Pearl - garden bung. with pool
5 nights Bora Bora Thalasso - emerald OWB
2 nights Le Taha'a Private Resort - beach villa with pool

I'm so excited - can't even believe I have to wait until NOVEMBER to go! Ugh! I'll be looking for all your pictures and trip reviews when you get back - all of you go before me I think!
My FH was worried about moving around too much in 11 days....so we were going to cut out Moorea b/c Bora Bora and Tahaa were our first choices - but as you can imagine that was crazy expensive & I really didn't want to miss Moorea altogether. So we decided to pick 1 place that we would stay the longest so we felt settled somewhere...what better place than the OWB at Thalasso!!! So yes 2 nights on Moorea and Tahaa is quick but I think it should be fine. I'm really excited.

Thanks again girls!!!

PS - meant to mention that I was posting a picture of the bathroom in the beach villa at Le Taha'a that I am obsessed with....looks so cool. It's half outside...behind the 2 sinks is the outdoor tub and shower!!!

Awww, K you are so sweet! I'm happy to help and WOW what an amazing itinerary. I think 2 days on each moorea & taha'a is perfect for you, since you didn't want to miss either island.

I agree with you. I don't think I'll plan much if anything thru the travel agent before we go. I think we'll just take it day by day. I can't stop talking about this trip either - I definitely talk about it more than I do my wedding.

You'll have to take a lot of pictures for me!
What category OWB are you in? We are in an Emerald...would have loved to go for the Saphire or Diamond but it was just too much more $ for us. You'll have to scope out the best Emerald bungalow for me...right now from the map it looks like #206 is the best one - it's right next to a diamond level bungalow. I'm secretly hoping if anything is available while we are there they will upgrade us to a higher level...I won't get my hopes up though.
