French Polynesia is drop dead gorgeous and Windstar service and food is the best we ever encountered. If you love water sports e.g. snorkeling, diving, jet ski, beaches, this is for you.

Ship tip
Shore excursions were pricey...book private excursions online
Busiest and dirtiest island. Booked a half-day 4x4 tour of the inner island with the hotel. Suggest you extend your stay and take ferry to Moorea and book hotel there. Moorea is beautiful and less crowded.
Booked private tour with Moana Adventure Tours on day 1. Jet Ski in the am took us all around the island...turquoise water was just amazing. Lunch at Bloody Mary's, then Shark and Stingray Tour in the pm. Fabulous. Day 2 went to private Motu during the day with the ship and then dinner and Polynesian show in the evening on private motu. Amazing
Beautiful Island. Booked all day private tour...Marc's Combo Island Tour and Motu Picnic. 4x4 Visits vanilla and pearl farm, sacred eels, then private motu lunch and afternoon snorkeling. Highly recommend.
Beautiful island. We did ship's Dolphin excursion with Dr. Poole. Educational and saw schools of dolphins from a distance. Didn’t love this tour. We went back to Moorea after cruise and booked jet ski and ATV tours with Moorea Activity center which were excellent.
