A short 10 minutes flight from Huahine to Raiatea for our 2nd destination – Tahaa! Tahaa is right next to Raiatea; separated by a lagoon and the reefs down looked incredible! Once we arrived Raiatea, there was a guy holding a Le Taha’a sign ith my name, I checked in with him and waited… Read More French Polynesia Island Hopping 2 – Tahaa
Royal Huahine located on a corner of Huahine island accessible by boat (I heard there is a bumpy road on a 4×4 can also reach the hotel when the boat breaks down), the hotel offers a free shuttle to the village (where the marina is) on scheduled time but you’ll need to pre-book. The ferry… Read More Huahine, French Polynesia

Traveling on Christmas Eve this time was much more smooth than previous years, thanks to no delays! We flew from Boston to LAX on AA and then LAX to PPT (Tahiti) on Air Tahiti Nui.

Our 4 days in paradise has came to an end but thanks to Intercontinental Bora Bora Thalasso, we got an extra half free day! The last day of vacation usually was usually very unproductive – wake up, get to airport, wait for boarding (not to mentioned delays), on the plane, layover, on the plane, and then… Read More Bora Bora: Last Moments of Paradise
Did I ever tell you why we never stay at all-inclusive hotels or destinations for our vacation? We felt like in all-inclusive hotels, we just stuck in the hotel sleeping and eating; we definitely don’t like those cheesy free activities nor shows. The hotel grounds might be beautiful but that won’t fill our whole vacation;… Read More Bora Bora – Not Enough of You
