Had a lovely time at Edgewater Resort. The staff were friendly and always greeted us with a smile. The grounds and rooms were immaculate.
The staff that catered for my sister's birthday did a fantastic job as well✨
Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Rarotonga ☺️
The staff were absolutely amazing from the front desks, securities, those who were cleaning the grounds and our rooms. All resort amenities were great no issues. We had everything we needed in our room and will recommend to all.
The room was very good. The staff were friendly and helpful. It was nice that they replaced the towels every day. It was great that we could use the towels off site. Service and the food was very good.
Amazing location! Staff were friendly and helpful wherever I went on the property. Room was really big, so had more than enough space. The room and bathroom were both impeccably clean, and the air con was a blessing! The beach was just down a few steps from the pool/restaurant. The local bus, both directions, stops right at reception.
We absolutely loved the beach front villa plenty of room for me and my 4 nieces and nephews.
The staff are so friendly and lovely to deal with. The complimentary wifi was an unexpected bonus too.
Recommend for the budget friendly families
