Polynesia, at your own pace Sunshine and slow days in private villas

Nothing compares to time spent together - yet there never seems to be enough of it. For these long-awaited reunions, the setting must rise to the occasion, becoming the backdrop for unforgettable memories. What better place, then, than the Society Islands? Tahiti, Moorea, Bora Bora: musical names that evoke a dream - one you’ll soon be living wide awake. Your journey begins in Tahiti, where the capital, Papeete, offers a brief introduction before you are swiftly drawn into the natural and cultural rhythms of Polynesia. Caves, waterfalls and, of course, the long-awaited beaches: cerulean waters, palm-fringed sand. A spectacular setting, matched by equally remarkable wildlife, including turtles, dolphins and whales. Diligent and generous, the “Queen of Pearls” also introduces your group to the richness of Polynesian culture, with a monoï-making workshop already included in your plans. To reach the next stop, a short ferry journey brings you to Moorea - not called Tahiti’s sister island for nothing. As the encounters continue (notably at the ecomuseum), the shared adventure takes on a slightly more active note: hiking, treetop courses, and, if you wish, a traditional outrigger canoe outing. Always as a team. A few days later, as the butterfly island recedes below the wings of the plane, the third chapter opens: Bora Bora. The idea here is to slow down - a clever way to make the pleasure last. Aside from a lagoon exploration by boat (an experience not to be missed), days are left deliberately free. From laying your towels side by side, comparing tans, to lingering over meals and talking late into the night, the schedule gradually fills in. Or maybe not at all. Back in Tahiti, then on the plane home, you scroll through photos of this getaway unlike any other. Thankfully, the images are there - otherwise, you might think you had dreamt it.

Your trip

Travelling as a group takes planning. That’s why we take care of the logistics. When it comes to transport, inter-island transfers and rental cars are already booked. So, as you travel, you can set off when everyone is finally ready, and adjust the next day's plans depending on when you go to bed. In short: freedom! As for accommodation, to ensure you feel at home and can enjoy your privacy, we have chosen independent accommodations: a duplex apartment in Tahiti, a wooden lodge in Moorea and a private villa in Bora Bora. All set back from the hustle and bustle, the sea is always within flip-flop reach. And because moving your group through airports can feel daunting, we have set up seamless logistics. On arrival, you benefit from priority lanes for immigration and customs formalities, before being met by our local representative. Then, thanks to your pre-booked vehicle, you head straight to your first accommodation, where your initial groceries have already been delivered. In Moorea, we also assist with stocking your private villa. Before your return flight, a studio is made available for your final hours in Tahiti, and before boarding, you will once again have the assistance of our on-site contact at the airport. Throughout the journey, you can stay connected - if and only if you wish - thanks to a Wi-Fi solution. Also on your phone, alongside our mobile app, are the contact details of our on-site concierge at your destination. Your travel booklet, meanwhile, brings together our recommendations and suggestions for independent activities: a turtle conservation centre, our go-to spots on each island, snorkelling with blacktip sharks and rays… simply pick and choose.
