Paul Gauguin Cruises Reviews

Great excursions, wonderful food, attentive staff, beautiful ship. Fun!

The island choices were perfect. We felt the ship could have offered educational and ecological talks and movies on the islands and its people and history. They could have also had a few more activities onboard ship like organized yoga on deck, cooking demos, Tahitian dance lessons, etc. All my suggestions were also provided to the cruise ship directly. Otherwise it was a trip of a lifetime and we had a marvelous time. I loved that everyone knows your name, the island choices were really spectacular, the food choices were great and the booze flowed freely.

Our cruise to Tahiti, Bora Bora and Moorea included fine dining onboard the Paul Gauguin, colorful presentations of local culture and traditions, and fun excursions on the islands. We had a great time!

Tahiti and the Society Islands are pristine, wonderful places and the hotels and Paul Gauguin cruise were excellent ways to experience them.

WE ARE REPEAT CUSTOMERS ! that says it all. AND we will be back.

The all cruise experience was beyond expectations

Only via Paul Gauguin ( Ponant ) can you seethese wonderful places

Since Ponant has taken over PG, it is not the same. Crew & service fabulous - balance of cruise terrible.

This was the best cruise of our lives! We have been in several cruise lines and this was by far the best service, food and attention to detail and in the beauty of French Polynesia!

Great service Great food Paradise found

All aspects of this cruise were 5 star. The food the service the attitudes of the staff I could not think of anything that would improve this cruise

For the most part it was good. Excursions were all screwed up, took them awhile to correct. Also took them a few days to get my GF diet requirements. Wine selections for dinner were poor and rarely suited your meal. Eg who wants a Malbec with their fish !! Afternoon tea was not suitable for anyone with diet restrictions. No GF items at all, except a fruit skewer.

The Air Tahiti Nui Economy seats are the worst I have ever been in. The Intercontinental Hotel in Tahiti day room amounted to only 2 hours of room time and they would not accommodate putting my elderly sister (traveling single) anywhere close to my husband and I’s room. I loved the Paul Gauguin ship and the cruise but will consider a different way to get to Papeete.

Really enjoyed the smaller ship experience. The staff was friendly and prompt; the food delicious. Cruising The Society Islands was incredibly beautiful; it’s truly difficult to describe the colors of the Tahitian landscape. I’d absolutely recommend this cruise line.

The cruise met all expectations, and that's saying a lot considering how postively it had been recommended. The only disappointment was the wi-fi which was terribly slow and cumbersome to use and the one printer being out of ink, unbelieveable on a cruise of this quality.

Wld love to do it again

Excellent service.

This cruise was fabulous and relaxing. Highly recommend!!
