Ah, Tahiti! Lush vegetation swaying in balmy ocean breezes, glittering aquamarine waters, white-sand beaches, and some of the best diving and snorkeling in the world.
It’s an uncontested fact that a Tahiti vacation is one of the most romantic, relaxing getaways in the world.
Tahiti? Why not?
But if a Tahiti getaway is so fabulous, why aren’t more people doing it?
“People constantly tell us that visiting Tahiti is on their bucket list, but they feel it’s too far away and only a once-in-a-lifetime trip,” says Daniele Venuti, Hilton French Polynesia Director of Sales & Marketing.
In reality, Tahiti, which is just an 8-hour, non-stop flight from Los Angeles, is a shorter hop for West Coast travelers than most Caribbean islands. And in fact, the flight is only a few hours longer than one to Hawaii.
Cost, too, is often cited as a deterrent by travelers considering a Tahiti getaway. For a limited time, however, the question of cost has been rendered moot.
Tahiti Vacation Package, From $2,599
Islands in the Sun, a leading South Pacific wholesaler, is offering a six-day package starting from just $2,599. Five nights, six days, and oh yeah, international airfare.
“We put this package together to take the guesswork out of booking your stay – including some important essentials – and to prove that it is far easier to disappear into the magic of Moorea than you think,” said Venuti. “Why wait to celebrate the South Seas together in style.”
Islands in the Sun, one of the first wholesalers to “discover” Tahiti back in the ’60s, created this package, which includes a four-night stay at the award-winning Hilton Moorea Lagoon Resort & Spa, international airfare from LAX on Air Tahiti Nui, daily breakfast, with a variety of in-country extras, including a local Lagoon Excursion.
Hilton Moorea Lagoon Resort & Spa
Uniquely Local
The Hilton Moore Lagoon Resort & Spa offers guests a variety of free cultural activities daily, including cooking classes, kayak racing and lei-making.
On Tuesdays and Fridays, the hotel hosts free, one-hour Marine Conferences led by area marine specialists.
The Hilton Moorea, located between the mountains and the sea, with its own private, white-sand-fringed, ten-acre lagoon, was recently named one of Trip Advisor’s Top 5 Resorts for Romance in the World.
Arguably best resort location on the heart-shaped island of Moorea, the 10-year-old Hilton Moorea teems with Polynesian “mana,” or spirit, is just a 30 minute ferry ride from French Polynesia’s capital city of Papeete.
The package includes accommodation in a thatched roofed garden bungalow with a private plunge pool, but guests can also opt to upgrade to one of French Polynesia’s famous overwater bungalows, starting from $499.
Like all good things, these rates won’t last forever, and travelers must book by Nov. 23, 2014.
