The Paul Gauguin was designed specifically for sailing French Polynesia
year-round. Paul Gauguin offers an extension of the informal, relaxing environment of the
islands, with Radisson Seven Seas' interpretation of six-star service, comfort
and luxury. Spacious Paul Gauguin staterooms (50% with private balconies), a water sports
marina, a choice of three single seating dining venues and an extensive spa are
among her six-star attributes. The atmosphere aboard Paul Gauguin radiates warmth and
informality. And her beloved troupe of Gauguines - part cruise staff, part
entertainers, part storytellers, add the unique personality of French Polynesia
to every Paul Gauguin cruise.

Paul Gauguin
Dining
Paul Gauguin's restaurants are designed to compliment and enhance the dining
experience, not overwhelm it. Dining is unhurried and relaxed on board Paul Gauguin
- you may enjoy
the pleasures of the table without the regimentation of assigned seating or
having to rush through your dessert. Complimentary Paul Gauguin wines are served with lunch
and dinner, or you may select an alternative vintage available for purchase from
the wine cellar. During normal dining hours, you may choose from the
restaurants' menus and enjoy dinner in your Paul Gauguin stateroom or suite. A special
24-hour room service menu is also available.
Paul Gauguin
Entertainment
In the evening on board Paul Gauguin, spirits are very much alive as guests enjoy Polynesian
performances, dancing, cabaret singers, a casino and the warm camaraderie of
fellow guests sharing the Paul Gauguin's highly personal, undiluted experience
of French Polynesia. Watch spectacular performances such as an electrifying
Polynesian show featuring the arts of the islands in the Paul Gauguin main lounge. One night
it might be the soaring cappella harmonies of himene songs. Another might
feature a thrilling performance of ote'a - a complex line dance accompanied by
drums telling the ancestral legends of the Polynesian people.
