Honeymoon Reviews

08/20/2007   The Moorea Pearl was very elegant and nice. We had a Garden Plunge Pool Bungalow, nestled in the gardens with our own private plunge pool - very romantic.

12/11/2006   Wonderful All-inclusive Resort. The food and service is excellent! Spend a little extra for oceanview rooms.

07/17/2006   Tahiti seemed to have a particular aura about it that we didn't think we could find on more popular islands like Hawaii. After we were told it would be like Hawaii before all the tourists came, we were sold. Our agent booked through Brendan travel, which took a few returned faxes to get right. The difficulty stemmed from our island hopping, which covered Moorea, Bora Bora and Ta'haa, our meal plan, and our activities. But once we got it all set up, the trip was a breeze. We didn't have to worry about a thing, which was perfect, considering all the stress that came with the wedding. The Polynesian people are arguably some of the most pleasant in the world. We actually tired of saying 'Ia Orana (yo-rah-nah)' (hello) to everyone! We ate some of the best French food, slept on super beds, and seamlessly transferred ourselves and our luggage from island to island. Mostly our days were filled with tanning, snorkeling, sleeping, eating and doing what else newlyweds do. The resorts had free rental of kayaks, badminton or ping pong and snorkeling gear. We decided not to sign up for too many activities so we could mostly relax. One of my favorite activities was the shark and ray feeding. You actually are in the water when the guides feed them. And I am too terrified to watch 'Jaws.' An older gentleman nearly drowned (not that it was unsafe; he had recently had surgery) and had to be life-flighted out of there. It really put a damper on the moment, but then again, I felt that if an emergency were to arrive out there in the middle of the ocean, we would have good help. We also took a guided tour of Moorea to learn the history of the islands, and we were supposed to go for a jungle jeep ride in Bora Bora but I got sick so I don’t know if it was good or not! My sickness was some sort of stomach ailment, I believe from a salad with mayonnaise, or maybe the fruit. The water from the tap, they said, was safe. I had to make several trips to the toilet, and it got so bad one day that I couldn't even stand up. At least I had one of the most beautiful views in the world. My poor husband spent a day snorkeling alone... Moorea was the largest of the three islands and had a small village center where we could shop. Mike and I bought a two-meal plan a day and then supplemented by buying cheese and crackers at the store. The other two islands didn’t have this option so we paid a pretty high price for lunch or just went without, which really wasn’t a big deal since the sun takes away your appetite. We stayed 10 days, 9 nights, which I thought got a little on the long side, but I'm a workaholic. Maybe 7 nights is best. We spent four nights in a “garden bungalow” off the water (but it had its own dipping pool) to save some money and then got the “over water bungalows” the rest of the time. It was amazing to wake up and step into the ocean. Total traveling time from Kansas City took us about 24 hours with all the boats, busses and planes we took. It was exhausting. We ended up spending almost $10,000, which is quite a chunk of change. But I will never forget it. I actually feel myself there now, it was that real and that special. In fact, we have some friends who are getting married in September. They were going to go to Fiji and we actually changed their minds. They booked through Brendan and are even staying at our resort! We think they'll be pleased with their decision.
