The Rarotongan Beach Resort & Lagoonarium

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was pleasant and very helpful. Made vacation a delight to be in paradise."

The Edgewater Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Literally everything about the Edgewater Resort & Spa was first-class. Location, staff, food, service were faultless. Hats off to all at the resort for providing such an experience and can confidentally say this one of the best places we have stayed anywhere around the world on our travels."

Serenity Villas Rarotonga

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location’ beautiful sunsets, very clean and comfortable’ lots of things to do and made to feel very welcome thank you so much Ric . It was one of the best tropical island experiences, did not want to leave. We’re able to completely relax when we needed and have fun and enjoy the local sights and meet fabulous people!"

Lagoon Breeze Villas

8/10 Good

"Situated in a lovely well laid out property in the South Western area of the island. 11 km from the main town. Quiet and peaceful,except for the Roosters!! Breakfast is great with a good selection of cereals, fruits and juices, breads, for toasting, plus.tea or coffee. A pool on site and a nice beach across the road. Kayaks and snorkeling gear are available free of charge. I,as a non driver, rented an E Bike and used busses and the occasional taxi which worked OK. However a car or scooter would be more convenient. Vicki and Naomi in the office were great. Always cheerful, friendly and helpful. As we're the grounds team and the villa servicing team. A very nice 11 night stay"

The Black Pearl Beach Side Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was awesome. Small unit but very clean and updated. Common areas are well-kept and beautiful. Beach is right across the street. Parking on the street is a bit of a drawback, but other than that I recommend this accommodation, and I would definitely stay here again."

Magic Reef Bungalows

10/10 Excellent

"The Magic Reef was just what we had in mind and we had a great stay. There was some early misses on how the fans, AC and stove worked but quickly remedied. The pool was attractive but no one actually uses it as the ocean around the island is much better. The conceiege and management were so nice and so accommodating. Hiking the needle was worth the time and effort. Bruce is the best guide - try to get in a small group, even if in the afternoon. We hope to be back some day"

Sanctuary Rarotonga-On the beach - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at 3 locations during our 2 week trip and Sanctuary Rarotongan was by far the best😊 The room, location, staff and daily activities were amazing. We are planning a return trip to Rarotonga next year and will be booking here again no questions asked. All staff were beautiful but a special shout out to Sake at the bar. Ron at reception and Va in the restaurant they made our stay memorable"
