From LA airport we flew Air Tahiti 8 hours to Papeete, departing at 11.30 pm. Then Papeete to Bora Bora also Air Tahiti (40 mins) arriving about 7.30 am. Next a relatively small boat to the Meridian Hotel which is a tropical paradise with turquoise water, white sand, frangipani trees and tropical vegetation. (What a great birthday present!!!)
The island has a number of hotels, and one town called Vaitape near the centre.
The primary language is French, so all signs and brochures are printed in French with translations into other languages.
The accommodation and facilities here are both extremely good. There are:
6 x beach bungalows
4 x beach villas (1 or 2 rooms) with private pools
3 x lagoon bungalows
60 x overwater bungalows with glass floor panels
22 x premium bungalows with glass floor panels and larger terraces
1 x overwater bungalow for weddings
Needless to say, there are few children here, and some apparent honeymooners.
There is a multitude of activities available, some of which require payment above accommodation rates. The list includes beach volleyball, canoeing, turtle sanctuary, coral eco centre, sailing, fishing, windsurfing, scuba diving, waterskiing, shark encounters, hobby cats, parasailing, jeep and quad safaris, 4 x 4 excursions, helicopter flights, rental cars, ferries to other islands, massages and spas. And of course swimming and snorkelling.
Tahiti is renowned for high quality black pearls in a variety of beautiful colours.
Looks amazing guys! So glad I chose this resort for you in the end. Enjoy every minute xxx
