“We would like to say how thrilled we were with the wonderful cruise on September 8 2003. From the pick up at the Bora Bora airport everything went so smoothly. French Polynesia is such a special part of the world you are so lucky to be living and working there. The cruise yacht Tu Moana was magnificent and the service from everyone could not be faulted. Our highlights were many here are just a few. Food superb, dining room team for marvelous service, decor of ship fabulous, cabin great, the space and room on all decks more than enough. We enjoyed our excursions very much and the beautiful breakfast was a dream on the lagoon. Everyone did their jobs well and were so helpful. When we left the Bora Bora wharf to leave for home we could see the next passengers arriving aboard we felt so sad to be leaving Tu Moana as we felt it was OUR ship.”

“My parents returned from Tahiti almost a month ago and they are still smiling. I would like to thank you and the crew of the Tu Moana for making my parent's 50th wedding anniversary cruise so special. It was truly the trip of a lifetime for them, a dream come true. They loved the Tu Moana, they felt it was the perfect way to see the islands. Their comment was that they were "treated like royalty."

"Thank you  for the wonderful holiday aboard the Tu Moana in September.

You exceeded my expectations! I have never had such a luxurious holiday.Your crew on board were fantastic and they made me feel very special.”

“She said that they spent a wonderful, unforgettable time on the luxury TU MOANA! It was the best service onboard they ever had. All the crew have been lovely, very nice and helpful, perfect service on board and during excursions, they enjoyed the Champagne breakfast in the lagoon, the safe snorkelling together with helpful crew members. They will never forget the delicious meals, the warm atmosphere...”

“My wife and I had a magnificent trip on Tu Moana this summer. Please pass on to the crew of Tu Moana that we wish to personally thank all of them for making our trip so memorable and so enjoyable. Special "thanks" have to the crew. They went far, far beyond what anyone could have expected. We miss you all, and we will definitely be back on Tu Moana in the future!”

““Our South Seas cruise has not included glitzy floor shows or casinos. But nights on Ti’a Moana’s (one of two Yachts) upper deck, spent locating the Southern Cross and watching for shooting stars in the galactic expanse, have hardly been dull. And with her access to the tiny Polynesian motu and lagoons, Ti’a Moana has exposed us to a new universe.”

ROBB REPORT

“Luxury comes in many guises, but few can match the heady combination of jaw-dropping natural beauty, a rich, colorful and vibrant culture and two private super-yachts that are the cornerstones of Bora Bora Cruises.”

LUXURY TRAVEL

“One of the most distinctive advantages of the yachts over the cruise-ship competition – aside from their intimacy and luxuriousness – is the yachts astoundingly short draft (7.5 feet), which allows them to venture into waters where not one else can go. The yachts cruise the lagoons of Bora Bora and Huanhine, as well as the spectacular lagoon that encloses both Raiatea and Taha’a.”

TRUMP WORLD MAGAZINE

“The 70 passengers are like a family, and the family gets to do some pretty enchanting things, all included in the fare price, during seven-night cruises. In addition to movies on a deserted islet, passengers are invited to breakfast in a lagoon, where, ankle-deep in warm, turquoise water, with soft white sand underfoot, they sit at white-linen-set tables, dining on eggs and pastries, island fruits and French Champagne.”

“For style these boats win hands down..The two smart cruisers are like trendy hotels on waves…The ultra-slick décor is softened with traditional Tahitian sculptures,floral pieces and a gallery of black and white photos of Tahitian culture.” TIME TRAVEL (UK)

“Escapism,honeymooning,Polynesian culture and simple island addiction are other compelling reason to make the cruise”

DESTINATIONS (NZ)

“South Seas escapade…A week –long voyage aboard a luxurious yacht off the coast of Bora Bora is punctuated by swarms of manta rays,loincloth-clad locals and massages on the motu.”

ANGELENO (US)

“Life on board - the sleek contemporary interiors,and the sublime food and service – is only part of the concept.Although it is tempting to spend all one’s time on the sun deck’s teak steamer,melon daiquiri in one hand,salmon roulade in the other…The charter also provides a range of innovative excursions.”

PLATINUM MAGAZINE(amex)

“An upscale entourage can charter for visits to Raiatea,Huahine,Taha’a and Bora Bora.The 226-foot TU MOANA and TI’A MOANA yachts only have 30 cabins,and because they only have a seven-foot draft,they can navigate the shallow lagoons and offer unparalleled access to the motus.”
