Aranui Cruises

The Aranui 5 is a luxurious passenger cruise vessel, offering experiential travellers a unique and unforgettable travel experience in French Polynesia’s Austral Islands. But, at the same time, it serves as a vital lifeline for the remote Marquesas Islands in French Polynesia, delivering essential supplies and goods to the various villages across the archipelago. This hybrid model makes Aranui 5 a true one-of-a-kind – a working cargo ship that provides both a crucial logistical service and a gateway to authentic cultural immersion. Read More...

About Aranui Cruises

Onboard the Aranui 5

Unlike the grandeur of luxury cruise liners, Aranui 5 prioritises authenticity and a strong sense of adventure. Its appeal lies in offering travellers a more intimate and genuine journey through the heart of Polynesia. Hosting around 254 passengers in 103 cabins, accommodations onboard range from basic dormitories to premium suites equipped with private balconies. The overall atmosphere is relaxed and encourages interaction between passengers and the Polynesian crew, fostering a unique sense of community and camaraderie.

Passengers can find all necessary and choice amenities onboard, including a dining room, three bars, a lounge, a large swimming pool, two conference rooms, a small boutique, a gym and probably the world’s first tattoo studio at sea! That said, the focus remains squarely on the breathtaking destinations and immersive shore excursions. These excursions offer a deep dive into Marquesan villages, ancient archaeological sites, and awe-inspiring landscapes – the true heart of the Aranui 5 experience.

Aranui 5 caters to adventure seekers and experiential travellers, who crave exploring remote destinations and engaging with the local culture far more than onboard extravagances, find this journey incredibly appealing. Cultural enthusiasts, fascinated by Polynesian traditions, history, and way of life, will find themselves enthralled by the experiences offered. The Aranui 5 stands for authentic encounters and remote exploration over onboard amenities. The onboard atmosphere is simple but comfortable, always prioritising the extraordinary destinations that await passengers on their journey!
