Muri Beach Club

10/10 Excellent

"10/10 -Best location on the island!! Absolutely loved our Deluxe Beachront accomodation! Couldn't get any closer to the sea & the views over the lagoon & to the motus were amazing!! Clean rooms & comfy beds & staff so warm & welcoming!! Property is really well maintained with a lovely pool area where everyone loves to gather at 3pm for canapes & cocktails!! Can't recommend highly enough!!"

The Rarotongan Beach Resort & Lagoonarium

10/10 Excellent

"The Lagoon is the $M location. Employees in all areas were excellent, friendly and professional. Food at Breakfast Buffet was great with side Chefs offering personalised cooking. Only problem with breakfast was constant broken Coffee Machines, really need to be updated. Rooms were great and excellent team members cleaned daily, professionally with a smile. Only problem we had was only 1 washing machine working for whole resort. Will stay here again and recommend."

The Cooks Oasis

8/10 Good

"Jayne and her daughter in law were very approachable and helpful. We had an issue with a new build directly behind our unit with the builders banging at 7.45am. We asked about it and they talked to builders and asked if they could delay morning start until 9am which they did. We had a problem with Ants in the kitchen. They got into muesli and other food, so keep everything in containers or fridge. We even tried microwave, but got in there too. The bed was very comfortable and large. We did ask for new towels after day 5 of 9 as they hadn’t been replaced. It wasn’t a problem though. We used the BBQ which worked well. One hot plate Didnt work and the other one took ages to heat. Only used it once so wasnt a problem. Beach a short walk away and great for sunsets as sun goes down right there. Overall was an ok stay, just the builders ruined the first half of it. (Not oasis problem)."

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"
