Ménage a Tahiti South Seas Cruise
July 20-27, 2013
Have you ever dreamed of that perfect Lifestyles Cruise® / Au Naturel experience, combined with great friends and exotic locales ? Have you dreamed of the crystalline cobalt blue waters of French Polynesia and the magical mystery of this unique and mysterious outpost. Or maybe sailing with an intimate group of fellow hedonists on a private yacht?
We have a very special itinerary sailing from Tahiti visiting magical islands and even a private Motu. We even have special pre and post cruise opportunities to stay at a couple of spectacular resorts for those wanting to extend their stay, all at special reduced rates.
Lifestyles Cruise® has arranged for a Super Inclusive (All of your alcoholic and soft drinks are included) private charter of the Paul Gauguin. Since this is a private charter the normal rules are thrown overboard to accommodate your deepest fantasies and desires.
The decks, pools, restaurants and nightclubs are being transformed into the hottest lifestyle / Au Naturel resort in the world all located in the most sensuous and romantic place on earth, French Polynesia.
Each island we visit in the Society chain will feature an eclectic mix of romantic and adventure-based shore excursions in some of the most beautifulplaces you will ever see in your life.
The m/s Paul Gauguin was designed specifically to sail the shallow seas of Tahiti and French Polynesia, visiting small ports that larger ships can't reach and effortlessly blending into the stunning natural beauty of the South Seas.
She offers an extension of the informal, relaxing environment of the islands, coupled with five-star service, comfort and luxury. Spacious suites and staterooms (more than 70% with private balconies), an onboard watersports marina, a choice of three open-seating dining venues and an extensive spa are among her luxurious attributes.
The atmosphere aboard ship radiates warmth, informality, and Polynesian flair. And our beloved troupe of Gauguines—a local Tahitian group who serve as cruise staff, entertainers and storytellers—add the unique personality of Tahiti to every cruise.

Dining
Unlike the All-Inclusive resorts you may have visited dining on the Paul Gauguin is a very unique experience, yes it is all included but it is not a sea of mediocre food. The food is all 5-star quality and the assortment of choices will satisfy everyone. But please don't confuse 5-star with stuffy because it is not. Like everything else on a ShoesOnlyTravel.com adventure, everything is different. So while you do have to wear clothes in the dining rooms nothing says that they cannot be super sexy and see through, as a matter of fact, we encourage it.

Spa & Fitness/Activities

Miss Andria has always been a popular girl but frankly she worked way too hard (12-14 hours a day) and still could not even begin to service, figuratively and literally, all those that wanted her magic touch. As a matter of fact she has always been100% pre- booked prior to the cruise.
We are of course thrilled that she will be joining this cruise with reinforcements, she will be bringing the lovely Miss Debbie who was such a big hit on this years Sexy Snow Bunny trip. The girls charge $80 per hour, tips appreciated.

Watersports are a highlight of the Polynesian experience. The ship's small size allows it to navigate in shallow lagoons and narrow channels where larger ships may not sail. With the specially designed retractable watersports platform, guests may descend to sea level where they can conveniently hop aboard a windsurfer, launch a kayak, try a little waterskiing or set out for a SCUBA diving expedition. A scuba certification program is offered on board.
Dive into the blue and come face to face with a colorful parade of marine life, from magnificent parrot fish and clownfish to stately sea turtles. Your first dive into crystal-clear waters will spoil you for anything else under the sun-or the seven seas.
Watersports are a highlight of the Polynesian experience, and the m/s Paul Gauguin is constructed to take full advantage of these irresistible waters, with accessibility to ports and adventures that other ships can't offer. The ship's small footprint enables it to navigate lagoons that larger ships would never dare to enter. And our retractable, onboard Watersports Marina brings you down to sea level, where you can hop aboard a windsurfer, launch a kayak, try waterskiing, or embark on our Zodiac for optional diving adventures.
Even if you've never been diving, you can take advantage of our onboard scuba lessons. The m/s Paul Gauguin is the only luxury ship in French Polynesia to offer PADI certification onboard for novice divers as well as classes at all levels, from snorkeling to advanced scuba diving techniques, supervised by our own staff of PADI dive masters. For the convenience of our guests, all necessary equipment, including an air compressor to refill scuba tanks, is onboard.

Paul Gauguin shore excursions offer the most exciting tours and dramatic scenery in the South Pacific. The opportunity to experience each destination in the most authentic, in-depth meaningful way is the very essence of luxury cruising with Paul Gauguin.
