Are you looking for a truly "once in a lifetime" experience? Is a visit to a tropical paradise your idea of heaven? If so, then we're offering an opportunity you'll not want to miss - a visit to the fabled islands of Tahiti. If you opt for this extension, you'll have an additional three days to enjoy one of the most exclusive island retreats in the world.

Soaring out of the ocean in an explosion of green velvet, Tahiti is what you would imagine a South Seas island to be. A wide, shallow lagoon surrounds your island's eight majestic mountain ridges, where poetic threads of waterfalls tumble down fern-softened cliffs. These majestic islands were the original "Bali Hai" inspiration for James Michener's Tales of the South Pacific.

Your hotel

What better way to enjoy an island paradise but in your very own bungalow overlooking an inviting lagoon? That's what we have in store for you at the InterContinental Resort and Spa! Close to Opunoho Bay on the northeast coast of Moorea, the hotel is situated between mountain and lagoon, sheltered from prevailing winds and situated in the heart of a magnificent garden setting. The hotel and bungalows were all decorated with a concern of combining a respect for the local traditions with non-conspicuous contemporary luxury.

Your Overwater Bungalow features a private terrace with direct access into the lagoon for swimming. You will enjoy spacious comfort and a complimentary range of guest amenities. Rooms feature king size beds ... individually controlled air conditioning and ceiling fans ... a mini bar ... Internet access ... sheers and blackout drapes ... and much, much more.

The InterContinental features two restaurants for your enjoyment. The delightful Fare Nui Restaurant and Terrace offers gourmet dining overlooking the resort pool, with views out to the beautiful lagoon beyond. The Fare Hana Restaurant offers a more informal mood ... lighter fare snacks either inside or alfresco on the pool terrace. The hotel's rendezvous spot is the Motu-Iti Bar, and ideal spot for watching the sun go down over the lagoon as you sip a tropical cocktail. Entertainment includes live music and a daily presentation of Polynesian cultural arts.

Regardless of whether you are looking for relaxation or excitement ... tranquility or adventure, Moorea in Tahiti is sure to have something to suit your taste. We've arranged a variety of optional activities for your enjoyment - be sure to look at the Itinerary for your optional trip extension.
