Tahiti ... the Society Islands ... the Marquesas ... the Tuamotus ... isles of the Far Pacific ... or how about just “paradise”. Regardless of what you call them, French Polynesia and its Pacific island neighbors are the very essence of a tropical dream.
We invite you to make your tropical dream come true ... aboard the ultra-deluxe m/s Paul Gauguin, the superb cruise vessel that has called these gorgeous islands home for a decade. Even better, when you cruise with Vantage Deluxe World Travel, you’ll enjoy paradise and the m/s Paul Gauguin at an unbeatable value.
In today’s world of larger ships, the m/s Paul Gauguin reinforces the joys of sailing on a smaller, more intimate vessel. All staterooms have ocean view and 70% now have private balconies. With one of the highest crew to guest ratios in the industry, the m/s Paul Gauguin can offer you truly personalized service. Attentiveness to detail is complemented by a desire to be unobtrusive and respectful of your personal space.
“The m/s Paul Gauguin was flawless, the amenities were perfect, the staff and crew met our every need ... this was an experience I shall always treasure!” - Sydney Keller, Taneytown, MD
You’ll find that the m/s Paul Gauguin’s restaurants are designed to complement and enhance the dining experience, not overwhelm it. Dining is unhurried and relaxed. Sit where you like and be casual, comfortable, and relaxed. And fully enjoy the finest food served in the entire South Seas.
Catch the free spirit of Polynesia from your deck chair ... relax at the end of a long day with a drink at the La Palette Lounge or the piano bar ...stop by the reading gallery, La Boutique. Later, enjoy an evening of electrifying entertainment with Les Gauguines, the ship’s resident troupe of traditional Polynesian musicians and dancers. Whatever you decide to do on board, you’ll have the freedom to do as much - or as little - as you like.
