Which websites do you visit for the best reviews on tahiti? Need to do as much research as possible in order to present my case to Fh. I have to prove to him in a short presentation that Tahiti is the only logical place to go. So far for the presentation I have wine and me in something short and tight. But I think I'll need some reviews in case the wine doesnt work and he catches on to me.

Portia - the hotel we're thinking of going to is new and hasn't opened yet, but here is a pic...

Quote request your holidays in Hotel Inter-Continental Resort & Thalasso-SPA Bora Bora

This was enough for FH, and I suspect coupled with wine, somethine short and tight, this will suffice for you too Portia!  If all else fails, gentley remind him that all suites come with a private deck that you 2 can tan privately, like naked privately! lol

go to this website, it's the best for Tahiti options:

www.tahitinuitravel.com

If you want to read reviews you can always go to www.tripadvisor.com and check out the Bora Bora Pearl which is another 5 star resort in Bora Bora!

You can try going to tripadvisor.ca. That's where we are going to for our honeymoon, although we are doing the cruise instead of staying on one island. IT can get really expensive down in FP. I have done lots and lots of research on it, if you have any specific questions let me know.

Thanks Mini!

Any cost cutting suggestions are greatly appreciated. As well as suggestions for travel agents that I could contact for a rough figure.

No problem!

I really wanted to go to Tahiti, and one of the places I wanted to go to is Bora Bora, rooms average anywhere from $500 to $1500 per night, and that doesn't include your food. A lunch for 2 like a birger and fries can cost you over $60.

So I started doing some research on cruises. It was sooooooooo much cheaper and you get to see all the island. My FH and I are doing a 12 trip most if it will be spent in FP and then it sails over to Hawaii, we get to see both countries. Isn't that great! The cost was around $8000. I called plenty of travel agents asking for quotes and then I called the Flight Centre and asked if they can beet the quotes I got and the did by a couple of hundred dollars. So I booked. I know $8000 seems like alot, but if we decided to go to a fancy 5 star in Aruba, St Maarten or even Bermuda, it cost almost the same. You have to remeber these places aren't always all inclusive. When I brought that point up to my FH he told me to book tahiti right away.

I also did lots of research on the Tahitian princess. All I have been reading are amazing reviews. So I am really excited. IF you live in Toronto I can give you the name of my travel agent at the Flight Centre. She is amazing.

We also booked an overwater bungalow in Tahiti. We are going to arrive 2 days earlier. I was well worth it $200/night in a 5 star. We figured we will only go once so why not splurge.
