Hi... Yes we went to Tahiti while doing a circumnavigation on our cat but it is now around 9 years ago so I don't have any recommendations for bars, restaurants etc. Tahiti and the other Society Islands are wonderful but with quite different sailing from the BVIs. We didn't actually go to Ra'iatea or Taha'a which is the cruising ground that is nearest to the Sunsail base, we spent our time on Tahiti itself, Moorea, Bora Bora and Huahini which are all beautiful but quite a way apart with essentially open ocean conditions between them. Unless things have changed you'll be anchoring almost everywhere, often in deep water. Hopefully Sunsail have equipped the boats with enough chain to be able to deal with this! Sorry I can't provide any info on the area around the base but one thing I can say for certain is... bring money, lots of it! I've never been anywhere in the world as expensive to buy provisions as French Polynesia. Have a great time.
