4.0 out of 5 stars Very up to date, but less info than previous editions, August 30, 2008

By	Lauri Campagna - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Jan Prince really knows French Polynesia. She has lived and traveled there and it shows. Her descriptions of the resorts and restaurants is far beyond that which you find in most travel books; much more detailed and personal. However, I have the previous edition and felt it actually contained much more information (indeed it was a larger book). Still, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this for anyone thinking of traveling to French Polynesia. It's great for both planning your trip and using while there.

Great guide book. Tons of very good information. Helped me a lot! Recommend it highly especially for someone planning to do a land vacation on any of these islands. We are using it as a guide to help us decide what to do and where to go while we are in ports on our French Polynesia cruise vacation.
