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

Moana Sands Beachfront Villas, hotel in Rarotonga

Located in Rarotonga, a few steps from Vaimaanga Beach and 2 km from Arakuo Beach, Moana Sands Beachfront Villas offers pool with a view and air conditioning.

We absolutely loved Moana Sands Beachfront Villas. We were greeted at the airport and taken to our villa. There was fresh fruit and cereal provided for breakfast. After the first morning, we had breakfast right next door at Circles Cafe. The rooms were very clean and spacious, and each bedroom had its own bathroom. We walked straight out of our room onto the golden sands and a perfect swimming / snorkelling beach. There were kayaks and snorkel gear provided for free. There is a 24 hour shop across the road and takeaways on the weekend. Everything we needed was on the doorstep. To top it off, the staff were wonderful. Extremely friendly and helpful. We can't wait to come back, and have already recommended Moana Sands to our friends!

    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.

    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.

    The situation was superb: right on the beach, and a stroll to the water. It was tidal, which was fine. At full tide it was only waist deep, but the water was clear and warm, with sand underfoot. The bungalow exceeded expectations: it was roomy, well decorated, excellent furniture (including large bed), and stove top for the coffee pot, and really really clean.

    Pacific Palms Luxury Villa was most amazing. It exceeded all of our expectations. Everything was just as the photos show. Close to wigmores store and great food outlets. Viamaanga Beach was idyllic with great snorkeling. A short bus or car ride to Muri Beach. We will definitely choose Pacific Palms Luxury Villa again when returning to Rarotonga.

    Was easy to communicate with owner on booking.com messenger and easy to pick up key. Had full kitchen facilities. Convenient location to airport as we were flying out the next morning. Host organised taxi to pick us up in the morning which was great. Host also gave us advice to stop at shop and get supplies before heading up to apartment.

    On the beach with sea about 5 meters away at high tide (!) and best beach in Rarotonga. Generously endowed with cooking utensils and condiments. Also lots of fresh fruit. Host supplied generous bonuses of fresh fish (Wahoo and Tuna) which were superb.
