I loved cruising with Paul Gauguin! My husband and I have been a two other cruise ships and nothing compares. This is an all inclusive cruise, which I loved, everything is taken care of, gratuities,beverages (yes even alcohol) and of course the food. The Paul Gauguin is a smaller cruise ship and so it is more intimate. The customer service is top notch, very friendly, sense of humor and respectful. The food is delicious and there are lots of choices. Whether you prefer gourmet or your basic hamburger and fries they have it all. Loved every port we stopped at! Motu Mahana (I think that is how it is spelled) is a private island owned by the cruise line and we had a fabulous bbq and got to drink cocktails out of a coconut :) We rode a wave runner on Bora Bora, learned about and got to see dolphins in the wild on Moorea and rented cars on Moorea, took a safari ride around Huahine and learned about the culture. There were lots of fun activities on the ship too, dancing, making jewelry, pareo tying, etc. The entertainment was very fun! My husband was picked to be a part of the magic show. I didn't think he would ever go on a stage in his life but he did. The whole trip was magical. We thought it would be a once in a life time experience, but i think we will be going back. Next time I want to swim with the whales in the wild! So if you want to have the cruise of a lifetime I HIGHLY recommend Paul Gauguin!!!!
