Didn't want to say, but I agree with you, Ngaire. I was at the Pearl in June, didn't stay there, and it seemed very nice, but frankly, given the chance, Le Taha'a sounds like a real win in this case. Babs, if you really want to do Bloody Mary's you can go during your cruise, but I would give that a pass too, except for maybe a drink. Aside from the beautiful lagoon, Bora is the most touristy of the islands, and Taha'a the least--you will be in for a magical experience there, I am guessing.
