“Our South
Seas cruise has not included glitzy floor shows or casinos.
But nights on Ti’a Moana’s (one of two Nomade Yachting Bora Bora’ Yachts) upper deck, spent locating the Southern
Cross and watching for shooting stars in the galactic expanse,
have hardly been dull. And with her access to the tiny Polynesian
motu and lagoons, Ti’a Moana has exposed us to a new
universe."
ROBB REPORT
“Luxury comes in many guises, but few can match the
heady combination of jaw-dropping natural beauty, a rich,
colorful and vibrant culture and two private super-yachts
that are the cornerstones of Nomade Yachting Bora Bora.”
LUXURY TRAVEL
“One of the most distinctive advantages of the yachts
over the cruise-ship competition – aside from their
intimacy and luxuriousness – is the yachts astoundingly
short draft (7.5 feet), which allows them to venture into
waters where not one else can go. The yachts cruise the lagoons
of Bora Bora and Huahine, as well as the spectacular lagoon
that encloses both Raiatea and Taha’a.”
TRUMP WORLD MAGAZINE
“The 70 passengers are like a family, and the family
gets to do some pretty enchanting things, all included in
the fare price, during seven-night cruises. In addition to
movies on a deserted islet, passengers are invited to breakfast
in a lagoon, where, ankle-deep in warm, turquoise water, with
soft white sand underfoot, they sit at white-linen-set tables,
dining on eggs and pastries, island fruits and French Champagne.”
SUNDAY OREGONIAN
“For style these boats win hands down. The two smart
cruisers are like trendy hotels on waves… The ultra-slick
décor is softened with traditional Tahitian sculptures,
floral pieces and a gallery of black and white photos of Tahitian
culture.”
SUNDAY TIMES TRAVEL (UK)
“Escapism, honeymooning, Polynesian culture and simple
island addiction are other compelling reason to make the cruise.”
DESTINATIONS (NZ)
“South Seas escapade… A week–long voyage
aboard a luxurious yacht off the coast of Bora Bora is punctuated
by swarms of manta rays, loincloth-clad locals and massages
on the motu.”
ANGELENO (US)
“Life on board - the sleek contemporary interiors,
and the sublime food and service – is only part of the
Nomade Yachting Bora Bora concept. Although it is tempting to spend
all one’s time on the sun deck’s teak steamer,
melon daiquiri in one hand, salmon roulade in the other…
BBC also provides a range of innovative excursions.”
PLATINUM MAGAZINE(amex)
“An upscale entourage can charter Nomade Yachting Bora Bora
for visits to Raiatea, Huahine, Taha’a and Bora Bora.
The 226-foot TU MOANA and TI’A MOANA yachts only have
30 cabins, and because they only have a seven-foot draft,
they can navigate the shallow lagoons and offer unparalleled
access to the motus.”

“Nomade Yachting Bora Bora was born and the result of Degage’s vision,
the TU MOANA and TI’A MOANA, surely two of the most
stunning craft afloat anywhere”
CENTURION (amex)
“Reach one of the most exquisite yachts available to
the general public. Two Australian-built, custom made ships
carry up to 60 guests on six-night tours of the islands. My
favorite events was movie night, when the crafty staff tied
“movie screen” between two coconut trees on the
beach and served popcorn. The onboard cuisine is similar to
that found at famed restaurant Jean Georges.”
GOTHAM (NY US 2006)
“Who could believe a yacht could have its own French
Chefs to make anything your heart (or stomach) desired. Not
to mention the outstanding service where the last sentence
uttered by our waiter, Jordie, is “my pleasure”
in his French accent… The only fault with Tu Moana is
you eventually have to leave.
TRAVEL CORP. MAG. (UK 2004)
“Nomade Yachting Bora Bora... The two smart cruisers are like
trendy hotels on the waves… The ultra-slick décor
is softened with traditional Tahitian sculptures, floral pieces
and a gallery of black and white photos of Tahitian culture…
For style, these boats win hands down.”
THE SUNDAY TIMES TRAVEL (UK 2005)
“We were pampered in a galaxy far, far away. A well
traveled and trained international staff read our minds and
catered to every want and need… The food on the Ti’a
Moana, a stylish Tahitian-owned yacht, is the best we’ve
ever had on a ship, and it offered the best French food we’ve
had in years.”
BANGKOK POST (Thailand 2005)
”I boarded the Ti’a Moana… The vessel offers
sumptuous appointments, attentive service, meticulous attention
to details and delicious food…
Michael SHULMAN, OCEAN DRIVE (US 05)
“Meet Mata he is not your typical cruise ship entertainer
– but this is not your typical cruise. Nomade Yachting Bora Bora
was founded by Mehiti Degage, a Tahitian business woman. Because
of the narrowness of the gaps in the coral rings that access
the lagoons, and the shallowness of the lagoons themselves,
large ships cannot cruise those waters. So Degage commissioned
two shallow-keel luxury yachts, had them fitted out to the
standards of the finest boutique hotels, and adorned the decks,
guest spaces and corridors with exquisite original Polynesian
art and furniture from top Italian design houses.”
Mike CARTER, THE OBSERVER (UK)
”Nomade yachting by Nomade Yachting Bora Bora, a South Pacific
dream come true… Our accommodation lay upon a gorgeous
lagoon of brilliant blues and greens, with a direct view of
the mysterious Otemanu. For the next seven days,the elegant
and very exclusive luxury yacht “Ti’a Moana”
was to be our new home…”
