Where is Tahiti?

Tahiti and Her Islands lie in the Pacific Ocean south of the equator, in the same time zone as Hawaii. Just 8 hours by air from Los Angeles, midway between North America and Australia is paradise. These extraordinary islands are for those seeking a unique, luxurious or adventurous romantic experience. You will have privacy, seclusion and time to do nothing but relax, sunbathe and try one of the many activities available to you.

Honeymoons, Anniversaries & Weddings

Whether it’s your first night as a married couple, your 20th anniversary, or you plan to have a legally non-binding ceremony among the vanilla scented islands, Tahiti is the “island of love.” Stunning scenery, dreamy sunsets, a private bungalow filled with tropical flowers situated over an azure blue lagoon and seclusion makes for a lovers’ paradise.

Overwater Bungalows

Like no hotel room you have stayed in, these traditional thatched-roof bungalows are perched above the turquoise waters. In many of the rooms, tropical fish swim below as you look through the glass floor.

What to see on Land

Opportunities abound for the adventurer in Tahiti. See waterfalls and grottos as you four-wheel-drive through the heart of the islands. Sunset cruises, circle island tours and cultural sites are all great ways to see the islands. Ancient maraes (temples) hold the mysteries of early Polynesians. Go biking, hiking, horseback riding, tennis—and more.

Shark & Ray safaris, swimming with dolphins and exploring the lagoons…

The Tahitian islands are world renowned for their scuba diving and snorkeling. From your overwater bungalow you can swim and snorkel in the warm, turquoise waters. Then there’s wind surfing, deep sea fishing, jet skiing, sea kayaking, sailing and world-class surfing. Or experience a thrilling shark and ray snorkel expedition or swim with the dolphins.
