    Our trip was amazing, however there was one theme that was a huge put off. Some of the places we went had absolutely horrible attitudes towards us. Rude with no greetings and sour faces, it is not nice to be treated like that. This was NOT at every place we went but it was enough times to stand out. Apart from that....it was a fun filled trip

    Rarotonga is a great place to visit.

    Rarotonga is a great place to visit. Its layed back and the weather is very nice. The beaches are great. We ate at Supper Browne in Tupapa at their cafe which was reasonably cheap steak meal. The local food on the early morning on Sunday was fantastic. Going to the movies could be good for young couples to spend some quality time without being too occupied with big expensive activities.

    Enjoyed staying on the island of Rarotonga.

    Enjoyed staying on the island of Rarotonga. Also did a day trip to Aitutaki. Both places were great for snorkelling, need water shoes to protect your feet from the coral. Night markets offered delicious food. We used the local bus to get around the island.

    There is something special about this place.

    There is something special about this place. From the moment we stepped off the plane, we felt so relaxed and welcomed. We stayed at Club Raro Resort (Adults Only) and I can only speak highly about this accommodation. They have amazing staff and the restaurant offers the BEST ribs on the island! Rarotonga is so relaxed and peaceful, all the locals and business's are really friendly, helpful and welcoming. You can use your New Zealand dollars, so no need for exchanging money before your trip. Easy to get around the island via rental car, scooter, bike or bus. Koka Lagoon Cruises were excellent! Four hours of fun, beautiful fish to see, snorkeling, yummy lunch and an entertaining show on an island. Happy Hour at The Edgewater Resort were a great price and so good. I've been here twice now and Raro will continue to be my annual holiday from now on.

    The view was outstanding from our room, and the blue lagoon waters were beautiful and relaxing to look out on. There was also a pool if you preferred to swim somewhere away from the sea. The resort is only a short walk from lots of amenities such as restaurants, supermarkets, car hire and the museum. Also we were able to attend the Muri night markets a few times which was a fun alternative to restaurant food. The staff at the hotel were very friendly and obliging at short notice. So we enjoyed our stay very much. Would recommend to others.

    The property is so beautiful! Comfy, quiet, spacious, clean and scenic. Easy walk to the beach and down the road from The Rarotongan. This is a must-stay if you're looking for something more than just a hotel room. The pool is fantastic on those super hot afternoons too! Hosts are so wonderful, kind and helpful. You may want to get a car or scooter to get around quicker but the bikes are great to cruise around on and you can flag down the bus at the end of the road Thanks Jaime and Jason again for everything!

    We were meet at the airport and transported to the property - about a 15min drive. We much appreciated the breakfast food and some extra's to get us started. This is a beautiful villa - directly on the beach, with its own private pool. We loved the different aspects this Villa offered, ie pool area, beach deck, lounge. But do make sure you visit Muri Beach - via the Muri Beach Hotel and enjoy what they have and a more sheltered beach.

    Motu is the best accommodation we have stayed in on Rarotonga. The staff are excellent , the accommodation superb. The welcome breakfast pack is great. Loved the snorkeling, great swimming spot 100m to the right of Motu with no rocks for swimming, lovely beach. 10 minute walk to Little Poly for great meals. Great electric bikes, kayaks and paddleboards. Saw whales breaching. totally relaxing holiday!

    It was perfect for a family holiday. Facilities top notch. The owners were amazing and nothing was too much for them to make sure we had a great holiday. They arranged in house massage, and there was an endless supply of fruit for us to eat. They were happy to drive us to collect our car after the cross island walk. I honestly cannot recommend this property enough- 5 star.

    I loved how private each place was and quiet. We travelled with a 2 &4 year old and made use of the perfect size pool and often had it to ourselves. The villas are just down the road from the best snorkelling spot (close to the Rarotongan Resort). We had a couple of bbqs. The facilities there are set up perfect for any type of traveller. Would stay again.

    Had everything we needed for the purpose of our trip. It was lovely having a large private outdoor area covered and uncovered. Being close to the popular swimming and snorkeling spots was also a bonus. Our hosts were also very attentive and hospitable. A wonderful welcome for our first trip to the Cook Islands.
