In one more year, I’ll graduate from nursing school and hopefully pass my NCLEX to become a Registered Nurse. The first thing I’m going to do is take my parents and brothers to Bora Bora on my nursing salary because they deserve it and I’ve had this goal for the longest time!

[@sherrylin7041]

[@blazensnow]

Thank you!! xoxo from Los Angeles!

[@TheTruthSeeker235]

That's cool. I was raised by my mother and I became an engineer. I made my first $100k/yr when I turned 23. Since then I've taken my mom to Las Vegas, Aspen CO, Grand Canyon, Miami Fl, Ruidoso NM, New Orleans, and next I will be taking her to Grand Cayman in May 2019. Update: I ended up taking my family to Maui, Hawaii instead. The total trip for 5 ppl for 6 nights and doing one excursion a day was $15k.

[@bojanaivastanin5278]

Wow your nursing salary must be really good if you can aford to go to Bora Bora and take your family with you 🙄🤔😌

[@Peizxcv]

How much do RN and specialty nurses make after tax?

[@elvaduong]

Just came back from the Maldives for 5 nights, staying at overwater villa in Angsana Velavaru. Hotel only all inclusive was $5k for 2 ppl, plus seaplanes of $800 and international flights, private beach dinner. Total cost probably around $8k? We went to Bora Bora, Moorea, Tahiti for 11 nights back in 2014. We stayed in overwater bungalows for every night (Le Meridien, Sofitel, Intercontinental), including one excursion per day, private beach dinner at Moorea Sofitel (totally worths it), fine dining (is there any other options at the hotel besides fine dinning?), international and domestic flights, speedboat transportation, total $15k almost $16k. French Polynesia overall is more expensive, but food quality overall is better. Maldives has way more hotel options therefore pricing is a little more competitive. Love both. Maldvies however is too far from us :( Thinking of going back to French Polynesia next year. After Maldives and Bora Bora, I no longer find any other beaches as impressive, it did kill other beaches for us.

[@neilprasad7093]

[@devon5812]

Which hotel did you stay at in the Maldives that is all inclusive???

Devon most of them give discounted all inclusive packages as an add on. But sometimes they aren’t very good cause you can normally they by with a buffet breakfasts and dinner. Lunch is somewhat unnecessary.

[@christinefilipski6714]

I've read a lot of the comments. Most saying how it's not worth the money, etc. We went for our 50th anniversary. It's not cheap. Our trip added up to just under $20,000.00 but included airfare from Buffalo, NY to LAX then LAX to Tahiti and return, trip insurance, lodging, inter island flights, ferry, transfers, meals, excursions, car rentals, scuba diving for my husband, souvenirs but not including what I spent on pearls. We had 16 nights -6 in Moorea, 7 in Bora Bora, 3 in Tahiti. Had 7 nights in overwater bungalow on BB. But that color water in Bora Bora we've not seen any where else. The closest color water was the Turks & Caicos. We thought the food in TCI was the best of all the places all over the world we've been. I'm sure the trip could have been done cheaper but this was to celebrate 50 years and we felt we deserved a dream trip. Which we had! I'm glad we went even though it was pricey. I'll cherish our memories for many years.

We just came back from Bora Bora on June 3 for our 20th anniversary. We booked thru Costco, flew from DFW to LAX, then to PaPeete, then BB. Stayed at the same resort, Intercontinental Thalaaso. Yes, it was really expensive, but absolutely magical. Costco price for 5 nights included flights, boat transport from BB airport to Intercontinental Thalaasco, breakfast & Dinner each day & 2 free towels was $10,000. We have been to many places, but there simply is no other place like Bora Bora. For a minute there, I thought you stayed in the same bungalow as us! Thanks for posting your video, as I didn’t think to videotape the airports & boat ride to IC resort. It was like being there again! We have decided to go to Fiji next, though now I’m curious about the Maldives!

She definitely did the all out 5 star version. There is definitely a cheaper route to bora bora. Slashing half of what she spent and you don’t have to go the millennial hostel 2 star route to do it. You just have to be strategic on your flights, use every available flight site to get the best deal. I’ve caught flights from LA to bora bora for 750 RT. So it’s possible. You may have to sacrifice staying in those bungalows but you can find some nice places on the lagoons. Or get more people to split the cost.

I went in November and this is what the cost was: Four Seasons Bora Bora for 4 Nights with Breakfast Included and flight from Tahiti (promotion 3 nights 4th free) $4000 Boat from Bora Bora Airport to hotel for 2 roundtrip: $300 Food and expenses at Hotel: 1300 Flight from San Diego (Points from Chase, so it was free but cost was 1500 per person, so lets add it) $3000 Hilton Moorea; $1000 for 3 nights Hotel in Tahiti: $150 1 night Food and car in Moorea: $1000 Total: Around $11,000 U.S. Dollars. (minus the flights, get those credit card points!!)

[@jackiestarr2881]

I bet none of the money from Tourism is going to the people who live on the island, it's the rich who are benefiting from the high-cost lodging, and food, etc.

Ever since I was a little girl it was my dream to go to Bora Bora for my honey moon but our budget was small and we had to settle for Kauai which was also beautiful and fun with lots to explore there. It is known as the honeymooners island. Traveling to Bora Bora is still on my bucket list.

OK, let's be real here, $700 per night for 6 nights in this place is exorbitant, it's a glorified huts with a nice bath tub. You're much better off finding a place on airnbnb, same sun, same sea, odds are you can get real luxury for less than half the price. I mean c'mon, you've travelled so far, you're spending $700/night on hotel and then you eat in 7-11? It doesn't make sense.

[@BoraBora_Sasha]

Its Bora Bora no many people have a chance to go there! It's far away g;ad you make it :)

[@PlanetBlake]

Nkauj Hmoob Yaj : 10,000K is pretty cheap for Bora Bora in my opinion. The total of our flight costs alone were almost twice that much. Our plans in total were over $30,000k ( that's including flights, hotels, food, activities, tips...). However, as with all things, I guess a lot depends on how budget conscious a person wants to be about their travel, or how budget conscious a person has to be. We wanted to do it up big because this was not the type of place most people usually go to more than once or twice in a lifetime, if at all. We figured we might as well do it all top-shelf, rather than going with lower-end accommodations, coach flights, and lower cost food options. We booked first class plane tickets, though we did have a numbers of flights and so we booked overnight stays in three different countries before our final flight into Bora Bora. We booked the Over the Water bungalows at the Conrad Resort in Bora Bora for 1,600K+ per night. Conrad Resort is one of the most expensive on Bora Bora, but it's beautiful and recently underwent a renovation. Plus, it's secluded from the other resorts that are on the East side of Bora Bora. The Conrad faces out on the South-South West side of Bora Bora and has unobstructed ocean/sunset views. Also, we booked a stay in the Over-the-Water bungalows at the Intercontinental Hotel on Tahiti for two days on our way back from Bora Bora. Overall for our trip, we booked lots of actives and excursions which added up to lots of money. Jet Ski, ATV motor bikes, private boat for snorkeling, catamaran sailing tour around Bora Bora, multiple Spa treatments at the two resorts, and we pay to swim with Dolphins at the Dolphin Center on Moorea Island on our way back. Obviously, food and drinks is very costly if you eat mostly at the resorts, but it's more convenient that way, rather than running all over the main island trying to find budget food opinions like food trucks and convenience stores. Bora Bora can be VERY expensive, but an experience like this is worth paying for at least once in your life in my opinion. However, no matter if your budget is in the $5000 - $10,000 range, or the $30,000 range, or $50,000+ range, you will have fun regardless I am sure.

Honestly. I spent between 14,000-15,000.00 for 3 of us to fly to Italy for 2 weeks. We flew out of NY to Rome. Took an excursion down to Naples to climb Mount Vesuvius. Hopped on the high speed train from Rome to Florence. From Florence took the high speed train to Venice. From Venice flew to Sicily and stayed 4 days. Flew from Sicily to Rome and then flew from Rome to New York. Mind you we did it all through tour groups which is costly. Our trip seems a better deal by comparison. If I had a choice I would rather go to Italy.

Go to palawan in the Philippines. Its more fun there. A lot of small lagoons and the chance to visit the one of the seven wonders of the world the underground river. The beaches is fantastic and the water is crystal clear. But of course 95% cheaper than what you have spent in bora-bora

Good Review! We have traveled to St. Lucia, D. R., Jamaica, Mexico, Belize, Costa Rica, Bahamas, and have seen very similar gorgeous views of the mountains and the crystal clear waters in Costa Rica and St. Lucia that you've shown at Bora Bora. We have not ever been at a bungalow but I do know they exist and are available in Caribbean as well , among islands of Belize as well as other Carribbean islands for a fraction of the cost mentioned since it is obviously so much closer to U.S. We'd still love to explore Bora Bora but due to such a remote location and long flight we'd hate to spend so much time getting there and back plus the time lag, so instead we decided to pick other locations like Bermuda, Hawaii, the Azores, Capri, Yalta, Cyprus, Malta, and few others :) They are much closer and still cheaper for this range of days and interesting to explore, each in its own way :) Thank you for your honest opinion and awesome review. Beautiful island and happy you guys had an awesome time there!

I love to my wife to bora bora but never new the cost like you just laid it out thank you so much now I can plan our trip out great video

[@charlesv3962]

If I’m gonna go to bora bora, I know already it’s going to be a expensive trip. It’s so remote. Most everything has to flown in or shipped by a boat. I totally get it. But if you really do your homework and good planning, you can get a better deal. Most girls pay with their natural credit card.

[@tomschuelke7955]

Totaly out of range for 99.99 percent of all people of the world.. i admit a dream Destination exept not enough wind for kitbording.. exept of that.. the money would be enough to feed a 4 person family in the poor regions of the world for 3 Jears ! Never forget this..

Where did you find the swimming with string rays for such a low price?

[@rickya.t1208]

our trips twice a year are always caribbean,always all-inclusive,always 4* resorts or better. french poly is a complete ripoff for these reasons: 1= food(a fish is a fish,no matter HOW its cooked,same goes for veggies) but cuz most is imported,its expensive. 2= air travel(cuz its soooo far out there, Airlines hike prices. to compare,you can travel across atlantic to europe for a fraction of the cost,so airtravel to french poly is way inflated for no reason and it shouldnt be,an airport is an airport,no matter WHERE you travel). 3= the water( same color as anywhere in the caribbean,so wtf?? ). so to recap,for $10 to12K,WHICH WOULD YOU RATHER DO,1 trip to french poly for a week or 6 fourteen-day trips to all-iclusive caribbean? a no brainer.

[@TravelMangoMedia]

This is too much logic for some people lol.

[@TOFJR1]

That is providing of course you don't get raped, robbed or murdered which is a common occurrence in the Caribbean.

[@sarahmueller3402]

ricky a. T but it’s the experience. i personal have no interest in the caribbean and even if i did go i wouldn’t wanna go to the same place twice regardless of it was cheaper than somewhere as cool as bora bora. and in bora bora you get to see the culture which is really cool and i did a huge project in when i was in school. just because it seems better to you doesn’t mean it is seeing as you’ve never been to bora bora.

[@Cta2006]

French Polynesia is a wonderful place with great scenery, culture and people, but it s just so riddiculisly expensive. I have been there twice but never gone further than the main island of Tahiti and the sister island Moorea. The thing is, if you go to other islands than Tahiti and Moorea, the various price range is either bare bones or very luxury, there is nothing in the middle. I have however been 3 times to the Cook Islands and I have also been to Tonga and Samoa wich is far cheaper.

[@BBBYpsi]

I went to Tahiti in 1987 for two weeks. First week was on Bora Bora & second week was Moorea. It was all inclusive. All food & ventures were part of the price to be there. I did have to pay for my flight separately. Sounds like same for me as time to get to Bora Bora. I left Metro Detroit & by the time I got to Bora Bora with a layover in LA & lay over in Pape'ete which is what the main Island used to be called not just Tahiti. My cost for those two glorious weeks back in 1987 including gifts I bought came to $4000. Sounds like it is approx. around $15K now

[@neilmodino9284]

A trip to French Polynesia is very expensive. However the trip can be planned and it can be done. If you love the beautiful ocean then this a good place to visit. I think it's worthy. Everyone wants to go to Vegas because it's cheaper and there's more to do from parties to sex--- you name it!!! It all happens in Vegas and every one is willing to loose more money and feel the thrill because it's fun in Vegas. I think a trip to paradise like these island are just as fun but different. You will feel more relax and you will feel captivated by the awesome beauty of south Pacific which is going to be a good experience. I think it's worthy even though it's expensive because once you experience such awe I bet people will want more and learn about the custom the food and the beauty of such things. I think it is worthy and gives you an idea how it is different from Hawaii Fiji or the other Polynesian islands.

The more you talk about this the more I realize that they trap you on your little island and for nearly everything it will cost you. I think you're better off going to Hawaii as a traveler in the beginning than going here. You need to make at least $10k a month to begin to afford this lifestyle there.

[@rogerdodger8415]

Use the four part plan.. Save the first 1/4th. If you can't save the first quarter of the total, you should go to taco bell instead. Use your income tax return for the next quarter. (thanks Pres. Trump) Then put the next quarter on your charge card to pay when you get back. For the last quarter, sell some junk, work overtime, cut coupons, buy cheaper gas, take clothes to the resale store, cut unnecessary bills. Have fun!!

[@saggiteightyfour8367]

My sisters and I just went to Vanuatu, (from Canberra) $3.5k for all of us..just over 1k per person That's flights, bus, accommodation, food (yes it was seafood: prawns, sashimi, coconut crab- not cheap but not a rip off like Bora Bora)...and we went snorkelling, kayaking, horse riding, got massages....you name it, we did it. 21 degrees every day, perfect weather, no mosquitoes And French Polynesia sucks. The locals live in poverty while a few French guys build $35million mansions from taxpayer money.

This video is for the people who loves luxury but the fact is that if we are going to Tahiti we will be going for fun and experiencing the island not to stay in a luxury hotel and have luxury foods , if anyone goes to Tahiti the first step he takes should be that booking a cheap hotel where you will save a lot of money , spend all you have to explore the island not to spending in hotels that’s not fair

[@TheMeliNavarro]

Nice video. We are in Moorea now and are heading to Bora Bora next week. Planning to take the local transport to our resort as well. We weren't aware of food trucks on the main island however. Will definitely be looking out for them.

[@svongsa]

Thank you for posting the video. Now I have an idea on the cost for transportation, hotel, meals, etc. I've been to Hawaii before and I think the cost at Bora Bora is quite significant. For a couple vacation in Bora Bora, they could easily drop $10,000 USD and that's for two. Keep up the good job! I don't think I can spend $400 a day for meals along! That's way too much moola ($) for me. 😂😂😂

Did you stay as long? What were your accommodations? What time of year did you go?

[@andybroer651]

@@deborahrosario4255 We went for our 25th Anniversary and her 50th Birthday in early June. We only stayed a week as we left our kids at home. We stayed at the Private Island Soffitel Hotel made famous by many Hollywood types in the 1960s. Only 33 bungalows (from memory) and 1 restaurant on the island. They have a sister hotel a short boat ride on the main island which you can use their pool and restaurant too. Boat shuttle is free and runs every 10 mins. The Private Island hotel doesn't have a great sandy beach as its small. But with maybe 40 guests at one time it was never crowded and you can always use the sister hotel's larger beach if you want to. We would grab a lift to the main island, then walk to shops for authentic French bread for like $0.70 a loaf and some paté and chilled French white wine for lunch for 2 ...maybe $10-15 USD. Breakfast was complimentary, so then only needed dinner and that wasn't too expensive.

[@Akumaa2000]

Me and my wife and her brother and his wife and about 4 other people went as a group to Bora Bora and just got back 2 weeks ago, it cost everyone about 4 to $5000 a piece but the trip is worth every penny. The resort itself is amazing like your in another world, the island and the clear blue water and the cozy romantic bungalows being above the water and the beach is simply gorgeous and makes you want to stay and not return home (seriously it’s that beautiful). We stayed at the Pavilion Bleu Bora Bora Resort (there’s like 3 or 4 resorts around the island), I have to say of all the trips me and wife have been on this one tops them all and It’s really gonna be tough top Bora Bora….lol 😎✌🏾👊🏾
