I thought I'd share a few pics I took from ridiculously expensive Bora Bora.....
You say it's ridiculously expensive though which got me thinking that you could probably do most of those things in Thailand at far less cost.

The over-water bungalow goes for around $1000 per night...Our package including airfare and 6 nights cost a little over $11,000. We had a couple excursions, shark feeding and a sunset cruise.

They are in the same time zone as Hawaii. They are as far south of the equator as Hawaii is north of it. It is their winter right now so temps are very mild. It was pretty much 80 degrees every day, no humidity, and around 75 or so at night. And also not as many bugs and mosquitos.
During their summers, it gets into the upper 90's with lots of humidity and of course the occassional hurricane or two...

It's a little over 8 hours to fly to Tahiti and then a 45 minute transfer by turboprop to Bora Bora.
