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.

We have used Goway Travel for previous trips and have been very happy with their excellent service. Our last trip to New Zealand and Australia was no exception. Our agent, Lori Mazzono, got tuned into the sort of trip we were hoping to have immediately. The various booking she provided were, without exception, exceptional and exactly what we envisioned, We really don't think we would have changed anything. tBruce Belshaw

Mary was absolutely fantastic to work with. She was incredibly responsive and quick to assist with every update and change my clients made throughout the planning process. Her expertise was invaluable, from recommending the perfect resorts to advising on the best way to travel between the islands. My clients loved every moment of their trip, especially their resort stays and overwater bungalow experiences. As this was their honeymoon, creating a seamless and memorable journey was so important, and Mary exceeded expectations. They rated their experience a 5 out of 5 and could not have been happier. Thank you, Mary, for your outstanding support and attention to detail. I truly appreciated your partnership and would not hesitate to work with you again for future South Pacific Island bookings.

We had an exceptional experience with Goway Travel on our recent trip to Africa. From start to finish, every detail was thoughtfully planned and flawlessly executed, which made the entire journey stress-free. The recommendations on where to go and what to do were absolutely fantastic! Each stop felt perfectly curated and exceeded our expectations. It was clear that Goway truly understands the destinations they offer and knows how to create a memorable, well-balanced itinerary. A special thank you to our travel consultant, Bijal, who was outstanding throughout the entire process. Bijal was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and supportive while we prepared for the trip, ensuring that all our questions were answered and that every detail was taken care of. Their guidance made a big difference in building our confidence and excitement leading up to the trip. I would highly recommend Goway Travel to anyone looking for a seamless, expertly planned travel experience. We will definitely be using them again for our future adventures! Harjit C

Elisa planned our trip. We were met at the airport by Paul who drove us to Arusha. Adam, our guide and driver was with us the whole trip and was very knowledgeable about the country and the animals & birds we encountered. Accommodations were excellent, meals were delicious and the Tanzanian people we met at each location were so kind and welcoming. A wonderful trip.pat vickers

We had a wonderful trip to Peru for 11 days organized by Goway. Overall the trip was great, we loved our guides throughout, some of the hotels were truly amazing and it was helpful having everything organized and having a point person to ask questions and check in while we were there. Some main highlights were: 1) Machu Picchu- I am so glad we did two tours, because the weather was perfect for views, but also had an opportunity to see Machu Picchu more in depth with a knowledgeable and friendly guide and had a little extra time in Aguas Calientes to shop, explore and even visit the butterfly garden and do some birdwatching. 2) Cusco especially the Hotel Aranwa Cusco. The hotel was incredible, excellent service, modern updates, it was a true highlight of the trip. Cusco itself was also a highlight, loved our half day tour, plus getting ideas for our guide on what else to see in our free time and where to eat. 3) Lima- Aloft Miraflores was another highlight, very modern, nice pool and the best breakfast out of the hotels we stayed in. The location in Miraflores was also perfect, as there were plenty of restaurants, cafes and attractions nearby. 4) Everyone at Condor was great, from ensuring we had all our documents, tickets and itinerary to even stepping in to get water and agua Florida when we were feeling the altitude sickness the first hours in Cusco. Most of our rides and transfers were very comfortable and made the trip run smooth through all the different locations. I have been telling my friends and family how wonderful the experience with Goway has been for our Peru adventure. Eric Paul Schatzel

We used Goway on our 32 day vacation to New Zealand and Australia. The person I worked with on planning the vacation was really helpful. The way they let you plan a vacation allows for lots of flexibility. You don't have to go with one tour the whole time. We saw a lot and they tailored it to what we were interested in. All the hotels were great and in good locations. Most of the tours were good but we would have preferred to spend a little more time exploring on our own in Sydney. The only thing we were not happy with is the customer service while we were there. Hard to get a hold of and some of the instructions were not clear/ accurate. That was a little stressful. Good value for the money. Dawn Krafft Hawkins
