Rarotonga GolfSeaView, hotel in Rarotonga

Rarotonga GolfSeaView in Rarotonga provides adults-only accommodation with pool with a view and a garden. The air-conditioned accommodation is less than 1 km from Black Rock Beach.

Being up higher meant it was so much cooler than the beachfront accomodation we had before this. We couldn't believe that we weren't dying for AC here. The apartments are great, modern and very clean. The staff here are so helpful and friendly!

Muri Retreat Apartments, hotel in Rarotonga

Boasting an outdoor pool and stunning tropical garden, with lagoon and ocean views, Muri Retreat Apartments is just a 1-minute drive or a 5-minute walk to Muri Lagoon.

Simon and Denise were great. Simon picked us up from the airport, gave us a few pointers as we drove to the accommodation and then showed us to our room and explained everything on arrival. They left a TV with lots of movies for us to watch during our stay, which we ended up doing a little of due to the weather. The apartment had everything we needed, the laundry was a bonus and the pool area was very cute with the ability to have a bbq by the pool. Overall we loved our stay and would definitely be back

Betela Beach House, hotel in Rarotonga

Located on the beachfront in Rarotonga, this self-contained holiday home features a patio with barbecue facilities and sea views.

The location and beachfront are idyllic. The house is well equipped with all the basics that you could possibly need for a relaxing holiday, and a few nice little extras like snorkelling gear that were appreciated. Rex and Lorraine were very helpful and facilitated early access to align with our flight, and checked in with us regularly to make sure everything was ok.

    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.

    Perfect location on the Muri Lagoon. You can walk straight out of the hotel restaurant onto the beach with the most stunning lagoon views.The team at muri beach are extremely polite and helpful and go out of their way to ensure everything about your stay is looked after. Great breakfast with a plate of fruit every morning and a hot breakfast option as well as the ususal tea,toast,cereal cold meats etc... As a resident 3-4pm everyday you were trated with a complimentary cocktail and canapés which was a very nice gesture.

    Breakfast no options for hot food. very simple even if you order isn't a good option. Room is comfy pretty good mattress and pillows. Shower doesn't have pressure. but is ok. Beach is very close to the room. we stayed on DELUXE, is wonderful! go out from de room 10 steps on the white sand and will be in the water! Kids Club and Kids Activities - our daughter had a really good time. Every day the Hotel offers different activities to keep your child busy. Due Dinner time they offer a Movie time for kids.

    Absolute beachfront with easy access. Lovely view from covered deck Out to, reef and beyond. Adequate private area for sun loungers, outdoor furniture and dining. House is comfortable and has very well equipped kitchen. It’s not 5 star but certainly ticked all of our requirements. Has a great holiday home vibe. Easy walk to several excellent eateries, Island bus stops right outside and a good stretch of beach for walks. Annie our on-site hostess was friendly, helpful and unobtrusive.

    Location great . Short walk to the lagoon, but being a little south meant there was no foot traffic in front of the resort. No children was wonderful!! I have four great kids, but just found it so relaxing not having to listen to any children (mine or others) squeals, complaining etc. The bed was the best I've ever slept on in a hotel. Room was clean and very spacious. Small size of the resort keeps it intimate. All decks look out to sea. Was great Anniversary destination.

    An oasis. Surroundings peaceful and beautiful garden and pool. Great for a solo traveler. Safe and relaxing. Very clean and everything there to make my stay wonderful. Enjoyed the bike supplied. Close to areas I enjoyed, Rarotongan for swimming, shops 10 mins on bike and a host of beaches great for snorkeling or swimming close by. Thankyou for your wonderful hospitality. Make sure your bring your own snorkel and reef shoes and check them before you leave home. THANKYOU!

    Well located at Aroa beach with one of the best beachside snorkelling you will have in Rarotonga. Complimentary snorkel gear, kayaks, paddle boards were also useful. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. Attached to the Rarotongan hotel, it is good for a getaway side due to it being adults only. Good air conditioning, decent restaurant.

    The view from the property was great. The pool and inside courtyard was the best part of the whole property. The check-in process was easy and the hosts were a pleasure to communicate with. They were extremely helpful when planning our trip. Would highly recommend this property to anyone going to Rarotonga.
