What makes The Islands of Tahiti perfect for romantic vacations?

Natural Bliss

Bora Bora beach

The South Pacific nation of French Polynesia has an enviable natural environment. Sandy beaches encircle forested islands, coral reefs lie just a few metres beneath the blue waves, and friendly people welcome visitors to experience the pleasures of their island home. The weather is warm throughout the year, with little temperature variation between summer and winter, so you’re in for a comfortable escape no matter when you visit. Swimming, snorkelling, suntanning, jungle hikes and long nights at the beach—The Islands of Tahiti are perfect for all these. Natural bliss is a guarantee. All you have to do is show up.

Accommodations Fit for Royalty

Overwater bungalow in Tahiti

The overwater bungalow is one of the most luxurious accommodation styles in the entire world. Your hotel room for the night is a private bungalow set atop a turquoise lagoon. When you open your door, you need only take a few steps and you’re right in the water. You can have breakfast delivered by outrigger canoe in the morning, spend the night on your private patio enjoying the views of the stars, and sleep each night in a massive bed with the sound of the waves providing your calming music right outside the door. This is what good living looks like and it all started in The Islands of Tahiti, which remains the iconic home of the ultimate way to stay in the tropics. Overwater bungalows are available throughout The Islands of Tahiti, including on Tahiti, Bora Bora, Moorea, and Tahaa, so you’re not lacking for options for this luxurious accommodation experience.

Romantic Nights

The days are full of possibility on a trip to The Islands of Tahiti, but the nights are no slouch. There’s romance and charm and more than a little magic in the islands once the sun goes down. Mark the transition from day to night with a sunset cruise or a glass of champagne on the beach, watching the sun fall into the ocean. Book a candlelit dinner on a private beach or enjoy gourmet cuisine at a resort restaurant. Hang out on your overwater bungalow balcony, or stroll out onto the sands to watch the stars and witness the world beneath the waves come alive. The romantic atmosphere in The Islands of Tahiti is hard to beat.

A Touch of Adventure

Diving in Tahiti

Just because you’ll want to spend most of your time relaxing on the sandy beaches or unwinding with massages and wellness treatments at the resort doesn’t mean The Islands of Tahiti are lacking for adventure. Quite the opposite, actually! There’s a lot to activate your adrenaline by land and sea, from rugged explorations by ATV to some soft adventure beneath the waves. Snorkel alongside sea turtles and reef sharks through coral reefs. Book an ATV tour across the mountainsides of Bora Bora and visit old bunkers leftover from World War II. Go sailing or book a jet-ski for an afternoon. Relaxing on the beach just hits better after a day of soft adventure.

The Islands of Tahiti is your dream destination for honeymoon, romance, and an exclusive vacation in one of the most beautiful parts of the world. If you’re dreaming about romance and rest and relaxation, start planning your escape.

The iconic Poisson Cru must be tried while in French Polynesia - it is raw fish marinated in lime juice and coconut milk - so good!

The Food - Polynesian cuisine is based upon using top quality fresh local produce and both savory and sweet dishes often flavored with vanilla or coconut milk. It's surprising to hear many of the perishable ingredients that go into your meals are flown in from various other international countries, and yet, can still taste so fresh and exquisite.

Touching base after our trip. As usual you did a great job helping plan and execute an amazing travel experience!! Everything was fantastic. Especially our hotel location. Since it's connected to the Victoria station it made getting around very easy. Thanks again for your help I'm sure we'll be booking our next trip soon...Leigh Ferris

We recently completed a trip to Crete, Greece - our third trip with GoWay - and I have run out of superlatives to laud their efforts. This was a self drive trip, and as has been our experience with GoWay, we were permitted to customize the standard offered itinerary to suit our personal preferences. Brooke, our agent on this trip, went the extra mile to make all the adjustments we requested, including providing for an English-speaking guide at the Phaistos archeological site. The hotels which Brooke booked on our behalf were truly excellent, and - again, per our wish - just outside of the urban chaos of Heraklion, Rethymno and Chania, but close enough to readily access the cities' benefits. Each hotel was a beachside sanctuary, and we spent several serene, idyllic days never leaving the hotel, and yet there was plenty of time for more distant and adventurous sight seeing. I cannot overstate how happy we have been with our GoWay experiences - most notably in their willingness to listen to our preferences and make those manifest in the itinerary - and this most recent trip just confirms our already positive opinion of GoWay, and we will be certain to consider them again for our next travel adventure.Frank Venuti

Venessa Lloyd at GoWay organized a trip to Africa for us- We just returned last week. It was very well organized and included everything we requested, and more. We did two safaris - one in Tanzania and one in South Africa. They were both excellent, with first class accommodations and guides. We absolutely would recommend GoWay and Vanessa to anyone. Sandra

Overall, the hotel and tours were amazing. We had issues with communicating with the driver. At times I was asked where, I was gone. The local company handled the situation and there were minor issues after. I would recommend a local English-speaking guide every day. My clients loved the trip. The area we stayed in had many restaurants and local markets nearby. I recommend the cooking class, flamenco dance show, wine tasting and taps tour, and the city tour. Jolynn Tizeno

Ani M was absolutely amazing to work with! I actually chose Goway for our group trip because of her recommendations. She was the only agent who took the time to explain that we really needed to split our travels into two separate trips if we wanted to experience everything on our wish list, and I really appreciated her honesty and guidance. Throughout the planning process, Ani was incredibly helpful and answered ALL of my questions, even when I asked the same ones more than once! She was patient, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. I enjoyed working with her and her team so much that I already have another group trip planned with her, and I expect we'll be planning another one soon! The guides during our Scotland trip were wonderful as well. Ian Short was the BEST! He was professional, knowledgeable, and made sure everything ran smoothly so we could simply enjoy the experience. He even worked in sightseeing stops we didn't know we needed to see, and those little extras made the trip even better. The entire experience was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end. I'm already looking forward to our next adventure to Ireland with Goway and working with Ani and their team again!Angela Butler

We recently traveled to Portugal and had the most wonderful experience. As our first venture overseas, we decided to search online for travel assistance. We happened across Goway Travel and are so glad we did! Michael Keon, our Destination Specialist, is extremely proficient and knowledgeable in his profession. "Thorough" is an understatement. He assisted every step of the way from the moment we stepped on our flights, transfer arrangements, hotel accommodations, train travel and multiple tours/outings tailored to our specific needs/wish list. He provided unparalleled guidance and support during the planning process and was always available to discuss any questions/concerns. His communications were always prompt and concise. Without a doubt, our best trip to date...there will be no hesitation to contact Mr. Keon for future travels. Joanna Lynn Mays Michael Andrew Mays Joanna Mays

What made this experience great was Cedric Wai. Had a client going to Asia and this is Cedric's wheelhouse since he is from there. Everything was wonderful. Everything went smoothly. The individual tours were wonderful and all the guides were exceptional. A lot of traveling-the flight was very good on Cathay Pacific would highly recommend their airline seats were comfortable and spaced well. Being on an airplane for 16 hours sucks in general, but other than being a little sore from being stuck in one place all was good. Thank you so much for all your help and the trip was wonderful and everything that it should be! Next trip will be much more relaxing, sitting still for a while on a beach somewhere ha ha!Careen Sullivan

Andrea Paredes helped me plan a last minute Colombia trip for my clients who had never been! They loved every minute of it. The hotels, history, excursions, and flights went very smooth. They were so happy with all their tour guides. Deanna Frisbie Borrego
