Tamanu Beach, hotel in Arutanga

Boasting beautiful sea or garden views from your private veranda, Tamanu Beach features a beachfront restaurant and bar and a private beach area.

We came here for our honeymoon in March 2024 and had the most wonderful time. We loved the relaxed nature of the place, the beauty, the wonderful swimming, snorkeling and kayaking in the calm waters just in front of our rooms. The food esp breakfast was wonderful and we would commend the Island night completely.

Sunny Beach Lodge, hotel in Arutanga

Located in Amuri in the Aitutaki region and Aitutaki Beach reachable within a 9-minute walk, Sunny Beach Lodge has accommodations with free WiFi, BBQ facilities, a garden and free private parking.

Where do I even start… Nik is by far the best host we have ever had in all our years of travel! He checks in with you everyday to make sure you are having the best time possible. If you need anything- he says “leave it to me” and takes care of it all! He went above and beyond to help us find out important information when we ran into issues with our flights home. I can truly say that he is one of the kindest people you will ever meet, and we cannot thank him enough for making us feel like family! We were also lucky enough to be able to upgrade from the garden units to one of the beach front bungalows for 4 out of the 5 nights of our stay - which was fantastic! The amenities at Sunny Beach Lodge go on and on: Free airport transportation, free wifi, free toiletries, free use of kayaks and bicycles, and a laundry service! It is also located right next to a convenience/takeaway store, and a 24 hour store that sells food and alcohol a short walk away! I could go on and on about how great this place is - so please, do yourself a favour, and stay here when you find yourself in the paradise that is Aitutaki! You won’t regret it! Thank you again, Nik, and see you next time!

    The weather was not the best, so hampered our judgement.

    The weather was not the best, so hampered our judgement. The people were very nice and we were very pleased to have a rental car with Aircon, so we covered the whole island on driving adventures! However, it would be more convenient if the car hire places were at the airport, and/or they would work in more closely with the plane arrivals and departures (We had to wait 2 hours for our plane because the company dropped us there at 5pm, which is the latest they will work...) The two cafes (Avatea & Koru), and the Pacific resort, were excellent!

    Include a walk around the island to get the feel of its fabulous location. We put the ambience before our food expectations - breakfasts were generous, lunches were our most enjoyed and the dinners relaxing with Thursday happy hour, local musicians playing and the location adding to a great holiday. A great Resort particularly suitable for young couples with as much or as little activity available as one could wish for.

    The island of Aitutaki is not for everyone.

    The island of Aitutaki is not for everyone. There are no fancy shops or malls and limited deluxe restaurants. It is a place to get away from the busy life and enjoy peace and quiet. Walking the beaches and swimming are the main attractions.

    Requests were not always met.

    Requests were not always met. Mostly closed on Island. restaurants would not allow us to book for dinner, they informed they were booked out. Couldn't get on excursions as they were saving them for a cruise ship. Waste of time going there.

    Beautiful beaches and crystal clear sea surrounded and protected by a reef. Great location for those amazing South Pacific sunsets. There is no public transport so would highly recommend hiring a scooter or car unless you are in a hotel that caters for your every need and you don't want to explore the island.

    Awesome Island and people; great food and easy living. Hated to leave. Untouched island. Hope they preserve their way of life for years to come. "Enjoy your visit in Aitutaki and don't forget to leave".

    Overall the whole stay was great. Big shout to Maine and all the Paradise cove stuff for getting things done and being so accommodating and helping with all our queries and requests. The hotel's location is excellent, and the beach is cleaned regularly. The included breakfast is absolutely fantastic and generous. You will definitely find more fancy and luxurious places down the road, but you can hardly beat Paradise cove's value for money.

    The location is amazing, the room offer is really good and easy access to kayaks, bicycles etc- very self contained. The staff is friendly and try to give you the best experience, they all remember your name. The hotel is very quiet and tranquil and also located in a really good area of the lagoon. There’s a great local restaurant nearby and easy access to the main road for a bike ride. Aitutaki is beautiful and definitely worth the stay.

    Tai Roto is steps away from a gorgeous bay in the lagoon surrounding Aitutaki. The staff are friendly and helpful and warm. The breakfast is a tropical delight and delivered to your bungalow each day so you wake up to coffee, fruit, cereal, yogurt and other treats. I would highly recommend this property for a stay in Aitutaki.

    Well maintained traditional island style resort with two pools and a good restaurant. Bures are of a high standard and are very well maintained. The beds are comfortable. The front desk can book activities etc - a lagoon snorkelling trip is really a must. The Aitutaki Lagoon really is sublime!

    Good location with a nice beach, nice, clean and cozy huts with everything you need. Lagoon tour was really good. You could walk along the beach to restaurants of nearby hotels in case you didn't want to cook. Free bikes were great to explore the island.
