Come Enjoy the Beauty and Relaxation of Tahiti & Her Islands.

5 Night Vacation Packages from $379

The Islands of Tahiti are what you’ve always imagined the South Seas to be – an idyllic getaway from the stresses of the modern world. Here, around these isles, the sea sends giant curls of turquoise breaking onto the colorful reefs that protect tranquil lagoons of warm, bright–emerald waters and white coral–sand beaches. Celebrate a new romance or a special anniversary in one of the most romantic spots on earth. No matter which island you visit, you’ll find the same untouched environment that inspired the paintings of Gauguin and countless others.

Experience the Air Tahiti Nui difference with three classes of service to choose from, comfortable seating, and individual LCD viewing monitors in every class and in flight service that will leave you feeling pampered and refreshed, ready for the adventures ahead.

Tahiti | Starting at $379

The beautiful island of Tahiti, encircled by black sand beaches and a crown of steep majestic peaks, is the largest and most diverse of the Polynesian islands. Your options in Tahiti are as broad as your imagination, whether it is natural, nautical or cultural.

Bora Bora & Taha’a | Starting at $549

Bora Bora is situated under the watchful eyes of Mt. Pahia and Mt. Otemanu – two green peaks that rise like exotic island gods, just waiting to be hiked and explored. The Taha’a lagoon is a giant natural aquarium of colorful fish and enchanting coral gardens where you can feed rays and swim with dolphins, or perhaps cruise in a canoe or catamaran.

Moorea | Starting at $675

A wide, shallow lagoon surrounds the mountains where threads of waterfalls tumble down fern–softened cliffs. Moorea is circled with simple pastel–painted villages, surrounded by hibiscus gardens and exotic birds

Rangiroa | Starting at $865

All together, Rangiroa consists of about 250 islands, islets and sandbars – each as unique as its visitors that seek a vacation from the everyday. And with about 100 narrow passages called hoa that divide this atoll, there’s practically no spot that’s beyond exploration.

Huahine | Starting at $1,009

While Huahine has all of the natural beauty of the other islands, this one is more remote and may be the best ambassador of Tahitian culture, archaeology and mystery. A small, scenic road runs throughout Huahine, giving you a glimpse of beautiful vistas and quaint villages where local arts and crafts are displayed and sold.

Package Prices are Per–Person and Include:

• Roundtrip airport/ferry pier/hotel transfers

• Hotel accommodations

• Hotel tax

DESTINATION WEDDING REPORT ~

 

 CONGRATS MIKE

 

AND MANDY

 

 

Penny…

 

 I just want to thank you for all your hard work and patience while planning the wedding of my dreams.  Our families knew from the start that we wanted a destination wedding so were fully prepared for all of the travel and expenses.  We must have had you look up 20 different resorts before choosing the brand new Azul Sensatori Resort for the wedding and the Secrets Capri for the honeymoon.   We were reluctant to book a wedding at a resort that wouldn’t be open until five months before the wedding date but you made me and my guests feel comfortable in the decision.

 

The Azul was beautiful…. large enough to get away from our guests a little but not too big that my 70 yr old grandparents were overwhelmed.  We had a total of 45 people with us and everyone had a blast.  As would be in any resort there were minor little “hiccups” but nothing that the staff didn’t immediately correct or compensate for.  I fully believe that my wedding would never have been as good at a different resort.  From start to finish we were catered to and felt as though I was truly a princess! 

 

Secrets Capri was the most amazing spot for a honeymoon…. complete paradise.  We can’t wait to go back! 

 

I had heard horror stories about the planning of not only a wedding but a destination wedding…. I really lucked out.  Thank you for all of your hard work and patience.  I could not have done it without you!
