The Edgewater Resort & Spa
10/10 Excellent
"Great place for our family of 4, we stayed in a standard room with ocean views, what a treat waking up to that view. We were there in late Sept, and saw the whales cruising past often.

"Great location, right on the beach with excellent snorkelling with tons of fish. Really comfy sun loungers. Can help yourself to kayaks right on the beach. Snorkels and flippers are provided in your room. You need to walk thru reception to get to the Rarotongan now, but that gives you great sunset views from the bar/restaurant there. Food options are same at both sites."
