The Edgewater Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"Great location. Very friendly and helpful staff. The lagoon rooms certainly need a bit of upgrade otherwise we had a great time at the resort."

Magic Reef Bungalows

10/10 Excellent

"We had the most wonderful stay at Magic Reef Bungalows and could not have asked for a better experience. The property is beautifully maintained, peaceful, and perfectly positioned to enjoy the stunning sunsets and relaxed atmosphere of Rarotonga. A special thank you to Lawrence and Simonne for their exceptional hospitality and attention to detail. From the moment we were met at the airport, we felt genuinely welcomed and cared for. Their local knowledge, friendliness, and commitment to ensuring guests have a memorable stay truly set Magic Reef apart. We leave with wonderful memories and would highly recommend Magic Reef to anyone visiting Rarotonga. We can't wait to return!"

Lagoon Breeze Villas

8/10 Good

"Situated in a lovely well laid out property in the South Western area of the island. 11 km from the main town. Quiet and peaceful,except for the Roosters!! Breakfast is great with a good selection of cereals, fruits and juices, breads, for toasting, plus.tea or coffee. A pool on site and a nice beach across the road. Kayaks and snorkeling gear are available free of charge. I,as a non driver, rented an E Bike and used busses and the occasional taxi which worked OK. However a car or scooter would be more convenient. Vicki and Naomi in the office were great. Always cheerful, friendly and helpful. As we're the grounds team and the villa servicing team. A very nice 11 night stay"

Beautiful private home close to stunning lagoon

Everything is comfortable in particular the bed which is definitely a plus , and there’s both indoor and outdoor ( covered) tables for dining . We loved the garden and outside space. It’s is private and fully fenced. The beach is literally just over the road .We have been to Rarotonga several times . This has been our best stay so far."
