M/S Paul Gauguin

You're invited to grab a drink at the Piano Bar and enjoy nightly musical entertainment.

Ei mikään voita auringonlämpöä uima-altaan äärellä, kun upea Bora Boran Otemanu-vuori täyttää näkymäsi. Tyylikkäät uudet tekstiilit, aurinkotuolit, pöydät ja nojatuolit tekevät tästä tilasta ihanteellisen paikan rentoutua ja nauttia Ranskan Polynesian loistosta samalla, kun saat viiden tähden palvelua altaan baarista.

Sun Bar – Solarium

Hyödynnä 9. kannen aurinkopaikat rentoutumiseen kirjan ja cocktailin kanssa tai ihaile illan auringonlaskua.

This versatile lounge offers morning snacks, serves as the backdrop for special events, hosts Polynesian activities led by Les Gauguines, and is the perfect place to grab a nightcap and dance under the stars to live music.

When the sun goes down at sea, Le Grand Salon comes alive with spectacular performances. Every night brings something different, whether it’s Les Gauguins & Les Gauguines performing ote’a—a complex line dance accompanied by drums—live piano music, Broadway show tunes, or foot-tapping rock music. Return to our main lounge during the day for a game of table tennis or lecture from a roster of anthropologists, archeologists, and marine biologists, as well as visiting experts on other popular topics.

Just steps from your stateroom, find the perfect memento of your South Pacific cruise, like genuine Tahitian black pearl jewelry exclusively designed for Paul Gauguin Cruises, Tahitian vanilla, local arts and handicrafts, souvenir apparel, and more. It’s also the perfect place to pick up any necessary sundries or toiletries, like swimwear, beach attire, sunscreen, and batteries.

The crew members onboard The Gauguin are certainly experts at providing first-class service to our guests, but they also boast many other talents that we’re proud to showcase in our crew show. Every voyage offers something different, but you’re always guaranteed a night of amazing entertainment, much of which showcases the unique cultures of our crew members’ home countries.

Soak in the South Pacific sunshine with a day spent lounging by our outdoor pool. Cool off in the refreshing water, grab the drink of the day from the Pool Bar, or take in the scenery from a comfortable lounge chair.

Laivan eri puolilla on koristeellisia näyttöjä, joissa on Paul Gauguinin taidetta, joista yksi sijaitsee Fare Tahitissa, laivan omassa ”museossa”. Matkustajilla on ainutlaatuinen tilaisuus tutustua 150 maalaukseen ja lukea Paul Gauguinin teoksiin liittyviä selityksiä. Kaikilla promenaadeilla on uudet matot, huonekalut ja tekstiilit. Kulkiessasi laivan ravintoloihin, putiikkiin ja spa-tiloihin ohitat teakkipuukannella varustettuja kahvinruskeita keramiikkapöytiä, koristeellista posliinia ja värikästä keramiikkaa. Seinät ja ikkunat on koristeltu tammi- ja luonnonkuituvalaisimilla sekä puisilla sälekaihtimilla. Valokuvagalleria esittelee risteilysi kuvia kolmella Mac-näytöllä viidennen kerroksen promenadilla.

On every voyage of The Gauguin, we’re accompanied by our own troupe of Tahitian hosts and entertainers that bring the spirit of Polynesia to life. Enjoy a retelling of ancestral legends through dance, delight in traditional songs onboard and on our private motu, and learn local handicrafts during hands-on demonstrations. Couples celebrating a honeymoon or anniversary can even attend a Polynesian blessing ceremony.

In addition to Les Gauguins & Les Gauguines, on every voyage we invite local performers onboard to entertain you. Don’t miss an evening spent with local group Mamas and Papas, whose dynamic performance of Polynesian dance and singing is a perennial guest favourite.

The former casino has been replaced with a Reading Nook so that you might steal away for some quiet time during the day, and enjoy a cocktail with piano accompaniment in the evenings.

In addition to the reception, Deck 4 also hosts the excursion and diving desk.

With its unrivaled approach to beauty and rejuvenation, the spa onboard The Gauguin combines the art of gentle pampering with services that are uniquely tailored to the needs and wishes of each individual.

Our spa offers an extensive range of services, enveloped in an atmosphere that is both tranquil and luxurious. Shipboard treatments include skin care therapies, skin exfoliation, massage, reflexology, body wraps, facials, beauty treatments, nail services, and hair styling. We are also happy to offer relaxing overwater massages during the day you’ll spend on Motu Mahana, our private South Pacific paradise.
