Paul Gauguin Cruise

  • Paul Gauguin – 332 Guests

Introduction

The m/s Paul Gauguin was designed specifically to sail the shallow seas of Tahiti and French Polynesia, visiting small ports that larger ships can’t reach and effortlessly blending into the stunning natural beauty of the South Seas. She offers an extension of the informal, relaxing environment of the islands, coupled with five-star service, comfort and luxury. Spacious suites and staterooms (more than 70% with private balconies), an onboard water sports marina, a choice of three open-seating dining venues and an extensive spa are among her luxurious attributes. The atmosphere aboard ship radiates warmth, informality, and Polynesian flair. And our beloved troupe of Gauguines—a local Tahitian group who serve as cruise staff, entertainers and storytellers—add the unique personality of Tahiti to every cruise.

Dining

Nowhere else is the French art de vivre – the art of living – more evident than in the sensory pleasures of our moveable feasts. Of course, at every meal select wines are generously poured, compliments of the house. All part of the legendary tasting and tempting that you’ll encounter aboard our ship. Ask any former guest of Paul Gauguin . This is the finest food served in the South Seas.
