I was a little scared the first time we went to Tahiti. Staying only 1 night on the main island, I wanted a nice, clean and safe location before our cruise. My travel touch stone, Trip Advisor, didn’t always have the best things to say about The Le Meridien or The Intercontinental in Papeete, Tahiti….

pay attention at the muster.
I’ve laughed, drank and played through the muster drill. I certainly won’t anymore. Thirteen times to be exact. Cruising is one of the main pleasures of my life– the feeling of being surrounded by the deep blue sea is one of the most freeing feelings to me. Amazing food, exotic locations, think-less daily travel… all exhilarating. At least…

I happened upon this splendid establishment on accident. I’m not much for crowds and feeling like one of a million, so on our trip…
