ITINERARY

11 Days Cruise From Papeete to Papeete - WindStar Cruises

Have you ever dreamed of your private motu in Bora Bora? The scent there is fresh floral, lingering in the air with the soft glow of fire dancers, illuminating the night—a sight to behold.

Above all, the rhythm of the South Pacific surrounds you as you indulge in a scrumptious beachside feast, personally presented by Windstar’s executive chef.

…and let me tell you; this is beyond just a cruise—it’s an immersion into Polynesian paradise. From the overwater villas of Bora Bora’s Conrad Nui Resort to the intimate luxury of the Star Breeze, every detail of this journey is incredible.

WindStar Star Breeze

Voyage dates: July 13, 2026 to July 24, 2026 (other dates available)

Day 1: In Tahiti, a warm Polynesian welcome awaits at the Intercontinental Tahiti Resort & Spa, where you'll spend the night unwinding by the infinity pool, cocktail in hand, as the sun sets over the South Pacific.

Day 2: Board a short but breathtaking flight to Bora Bora, where your overwater villa at the Conrad Bora Bora Nui awaits. Take a leisurely swim in the lagoon, a private paddle boarding session, or simply soak in the view from your glass-floor bungalow.

Oh, while you’re in Bora Bora, you might enjoy these 5 hidden gems on the island!

Day 3: Wake up to the soft sounds of the ocean and a floating breakfast delivered to your villa. Spend the day exploring—snorkel in coral gardens, set sail on a private catamaran, or take a 4x4 safari to hidden viewpoints. 

Day 4: Take a scenic flight to Papeete, where the luxurious Star Breeze awaits. Sip champagne on deck and watch Tahiti fade into the distance, the first of many breathtaking sights to come.

Day 5: Spend the day in Moorea, discovering its magic—perhaps a dolphin-watching tour, an exhilarating ATV adventure, or a peaceful afternoon on a secluded beach.

Moorea Islands

Day 6: Arrive in Raiatea, known as the cradle of Polynesian culture. Explore the Taputapuātea Marae, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Glide along the Faaroa River by kayak, then spend your day in a leisurely afternoon of pearl shopping and fresh island cuisine.

Day 7: Reach Motu Mahaea, a private island off Taha’a. Lounge on powder-soft beaches, snorkel in vibrant coral gardens, or visit a family-run vanilla plantation to see how this prized spice is cultivated.

Day 8: Return to Bora Bora and experience a night like no other. On a secluded motu, a feast awaits—handcrafted by Windstar’s executive chef.

Day 9: Take a private jet ski tour around the island, a scuba dive with manta rays, or a blissful day at a five-star resort spa. In the evening, bid farewell to this dreamlike destination as the ship sails into the horizon.

Day 10: Visit sacred blue-eyed eels in the Huahine and explore centuries-old Polynesian temples, or take a traditional outrigger canoe tour through the island’s hidden lagoons.

Day 11: Enjoy a leisurely morning on board before spending the afternoon at the Intercontinental Tahiti Resort & Spa, where a private day room is reserved for you.

Day 12: Depart with unforgettable memories of turquoise waters, luxurious indulgence, and the magic of French Polynesia.
