Honeymoon in Tahiti - Ideal Destination?
Why choose Tahiti for a honeymoon?
Because your honeymoon must have a postal card décor, because your honeymoon must rhyme with paradisiacal beaches, coconut palms, fine sand and turquoise water, Tahiti turns out to be the ideal destination for a romantic getaway !
And for a totally successful honeymoon in Tahiti, you can combine a romantic stay with some beautiful tourist discoveries and good little restaurants to taste the exotic flavors or simply to discover the local gastronomy.
Destination Tahiti - For which newlyweds?
Unlike a tourist circuit, the mythical honeymoon rhymes with escape, change of scenery, luxury stay, relaxation and rest. Gold, Tahiti is a perfect destination for all the newlyweds who will want to completely disconnect from their daily life and unwind after the stress and tensions of the preparations for the wedding ceremony.
Indeed, a honeymoon in Tahiti will allow young married people to meet in complete privacy, to rest on the most beautiful beaches of Tahiti, to bathe in turquoise and crystalline waters, to explore the underwater fauna and flora but also to reserve moments privileged and romantic (walks under the stars, sunsets, candlelit dinners…) in an idyllic setting!
Book your honeymoon with a travel agency?
For those who do not want to get involved in the organization of their trip, contacting a travel agency will be the best solution. Indeed, the only thing they will have to do will be to take an appointment to choose the island (Bora Bora, Moorea, the Tuamotus ...) and book the turnkey trip (possibility of putting the honeymoon on the wedding list. ).
It's quick and easy, but often very expensive… In fact, honeymoon packages are often more expensive even if they display promotional prices. In addition, some tour operators offer "honeymoon" packages or packs to which you must then add the price of excursions, supplements for certain rooms or even increase the price to access certain services (diving, spa, massages, etc.).
In the end, with the price of a honeymoon trip to Tahiti organized by an agency, you could make at least 2 trips to Tahiti organized by yourself and in the same hotels ...
Organize your stay in Tahiti yourself?
If you do it early enough (ideally 5 to 6 months before), organizing a trip to Tahiti is not at all a big job and will present some significant advantages:
- A much lower budget than with an agency;
- The ability to choose exactly what you want and therefore to have a tailor-made trip;
- Avoid the pitfalls of mass tourism (large standardized hotels, swarms of other couples on their honeymoon, crowded beaches or buffet restaurants, etc.).

Honeymoon in Tahiti - How long to go?
To be able to take full advantage of your honeymoon, get away from it all, completely forget your everyday life and visit the surroundings… the ideal will be to go to Tahiti for at least 2 weeks.
But, if you are on a tight budget, it is better to leave for a shorter period but take advantage of a unforgettable trip of 7 to 10 days rather than choosing a less interesting destination to spend more time there ... Similarly, it would be a shame to arbitrate by choosing to stay in a less expensive hotel that does not make you dream ...
For an exceptional honeymoon, it is not the duration that counts but the quality!
Honeymoon in Tahiti - What budget?
The budget for a trip to Tahiti is high but will depend on many factors that can lower it considerably:
- cost of flights depending on the choice of dates (avoid school vacation periods),
- choice of hotel,
- choice of restaurants or all-inclusive package,
- choice of length of stay,
- choice of excursions and activities on site.
It is therefore up to you to calculate whether your budget will allow you to go to Tahiti on the desired dates, for 7, 10 or 15 days and in a dream hotel or in a small charming hotel ...
The best will be to prepare a “honeymoon” jackpot which will allow you to make the first reservations on the internet (flights and hotel) knowing that you will have a additional budget made up of the generosity of the wedding guests.
Plan well and book in advance
As soon as you have determined the exact dates of your trip, you will have to start comparing flight prices to Tahiti on the internet. Indeed, according to the Companies and the dates the prices can go from the simple to the double… For that, one of the best sites, serious and reliable that I advise you to use is the comparator Skyscanner.
Then you will have to book your hotel without delay (see our recommendations below).
Going to Tahiti - What formalities?
Passport
For go to Tahiti, you will have to think about the passport. Indeed, your flight will pass through Los Angeles and will require passport + ESTA to be applied for online (for the USA). To be quiet and not to stress, plan to apply for your passport 2 to 3 months before your departure. If you have one, check that it is valid for at least 6 months after the date of your return.
Insurance and banking
You can take out additional insurance with your plane ticket. However, if you pay with a Visa Premier or Mastercard Gold card, be aware that the card's insurance is generally sufficient for repatriation guarantees, loss of luggage, accidents, etc. Simply plan to take the Assistance telephone number with you. of your card (number to be contacted first in the event of a problem on site) and the number of the insurance policy (on the general conditions).
Finally, it is advisable to notify your bank of your departure abroad to prevent it from blocking your bank account once there (withdrawals or payments abroad can trigger suspicious use alerts).
