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!

    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 accommodation was beautiful and very well kept, quiet and gave great views from the rooms over the pool to the lagoon and from the restaurant across the pool to the lagoon. Very modern facilities, good beach access and pool facilities. All staff were friendly and very helpful with all our needs. Great location to Muri Beach Village and all this beautiful part of Rarotonga has to offer. Would 110% stay at Moana Sands Lagoon Resort again!

    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.

    The resorts location is very central to this side of the island. 15 mins to town or Muri beach. This is the second time we have stayed here and the snorkelling is probably the best on the island. The ambience makes you feel like you are in a tropical location. The staff are very welcoming. There is so much for families to do at the resort.

    Everything!!! Location was absolutely amazing! The room overlooked the lagoon - we reckon it’s the best place to stay on the island! Staff were fantastic and couldn’t do enough for us. We loved the refreshing pool and there was plenty of food options nearby if you wanted a change from the hotel. Bed super comfy and room cleaned daily.

    The location is the star attraction for this hotel. Crystal clear water for great snorkeling (while Muri beach was very murky). The best beach for swimming on the island. Also 15mins to town to one side and to Muri to the other side. Enormous and comfy bed. Nice spacious bathroom.
