I can't speak highly enough about the staff and crew aboard the MS Paul Gauguin. This is a luxury vessel that somehow manages to never feel stuffy - Polynesian hospitality at its best! Our room attendant knew us each by name before we had ever been introduced in person - I was thoroughly impressed and immediately felt at home on board. I'll list just some of the many ways we were completely won over by the Paul Gauguin crew throughout our 8-day cruise.
You might find a few favorite waiters and always request to be seated at their tables. For us it was Jaypee & Flo:
Jaypee, our favorite waiter of the week! (Jenna Fedyschyn) Our waiter Flo knows how to selfie right! (Jenna Fedyschyn)
The bartenders may come to know your favorite drink and have it ready for you when you walk in the door - for me it was a Manhattan (with extra cherries!):
Pre-dinner cocktails (Jenna Fedyschyn)
You might giggle like a school girl around the Les Gauguines performers and learn them each by name and attend every one of their enrichment sessions throughout the week (dance classes, shell bracelet making, Polynesian culture Q&A, musical performances). We were their biggest fans:
Our favorite Les Gauguines - can you blame us? (Jenna Fedyschyn) Sister participates in a Polynesian dance lesson (Jenna Fedyschyn) Learning about Polynesian life from Les Gauguines (Jenna Fedyschyn) Les Gauguines teach us about the many uses of the coconut (Jenna Fedyschyn) Another pre-dinner show from Les Gauguines (Jenna Fedyschyn)
very easy to deal with kassandra. she listened to what our interests were and planned a great trip for us. nothing to worry about!

My tour operator was helpful. Unfortunately she was unable to get my single-supplement canceled. Not too many tours charge for that anymore and I almost canceled my trip because of that.
