Amazing resort

Our stay was amazing! We would definitely stay again. The accommodations were beautiful and the rooms were clean. The restaurant was very nice and the staff was wonderful! We would highly recommend this gorgeous resort!!
Carol, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location and nice sized, comfy rooms. Only downside were some of the restaurant staff getting upset if you dont provide 5 hours notice for dinner, even though restaurant was always quiet. Overall though a minor blemish on an otherwise great resort.

Shelley, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very nice, great outdoor shower nice pool, perfect view as we had a beach front bungalow. very friendly staff. Room did have a dodgy switch on the PowerPoint but other than that couldn’t fault. Snorkelling not as good as raro as a bit murky but could have been due to current and recent rains.

Kim, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

What i really liked was being right on the beach, the privacy from others and how comfortable it was for the 7 adults and the 2 young children. The beach was safe, with plenty of kayaks to use for free. We all felt very comfortable. Lots of lounge chairs on the beach. Everything you needed was provided for from a washing machine, pegs, dish washer and all the comforts of home. Big BBQ . A big deck and two huge up stair varenders with big tables on all decks to hang out on. I would choose this accommodation next time I holiday in Rarotonga if I am going with all the family. 5 bedrooms, Two bathrooms and big family area. you can't go wrong with this choice.
