Hotellit lähellä Rarotonga

Plussat: Staff was basically ok - had Ant-Highway in my room (expected in these regions). Everyone was friendly.

Miinukset: Since I had to reduce my stay to one day due to changed flight - I found it inappropriate that booking.com/LagoonBreez refused to reduce the price in any way. I will never book through booking.com again. Wasted ~200EUR. I simply expect more flexibilty here It should be emphasized that there is no free Wifi on Cook Islands and that on weekends the whole Island falls into hibernation.

Plussat: 1. The service was friendly, helpful and went the extra mile - ie, called ahead our bookings. 2. Cleanliness - rooms were serviced each day. 3. Breakfast - good for a continental breakfast. 4. Equipment - great to have access to these. Overall, fabulous place.

Miinukset: The wifi was a bit slow and patchy.

Plussat: Excellent resort. Very friendly staff. Pool clean and refreshing. Room clean and adequately supplied.

Plussat: This is a wonderful place to stay.Rooms are very spacious. Service is fantastic.The location is right across road from beach and the gardens are lovely. There is a supermarket close by and rental cars just down the road.. would highly recommend to stay here..

Plussat: Nice environment, good pool, good location, airy room, near good snorkeling, park like. Roosters didn't bother us but there are lots

Miinukset: Not enough fins for use A few ghost ants

Plussat: Breakfast was just what we needed, continental. Easy to take local bus and to walk to places.

Miinukset: We would have preferred to have a screen door to stop chickens getting in!

Plussat: Hosts were fantastic with lots of useful information. We had everything we needed for our stay, including bikes!

Plussat: Great breakfast on first day. Free bicycles were handy. Host was very helpful and friendly.

Miinukset: Breakfast included each day would have been great.

Plussat: The Resort was ideally situated about halfway from Avarua to Muri. Very quiet and peaceful set in beautiful surroundings. The apartment had everything you wanted and the pool was spotlessly clean and refreshing. Rob and Anna were lovely hosts and Angel was a superb housekeeper and of course not forgetting Lulu the dog.

Miinukset: Nothing comes to mind that you don’t expect in Rarotonga eg roosters!

Plussat: We loved everything about our stay here at Day Dreamer resort. Arriving in the middle of the night was easy and with great communication form Anna and Rob we found our key and could get in our unit with no trouble at all. We loved that Anna and Rob let us use their bikes to cycle around the Island, which is great and helped us save money. We loved meeting Lulu and talking with Anna and Rob about the Island and what to do. We had a great time and would return in a heart beat. Loved our short stay here at Day Dreamer Island.

Miinukset: Nothing, it was all great

Plussat: La amplitud del apartamento. The size of the apartment.

Plussat: Lovely small intimate location. Friendly helpful hosts. Would highly recommend

Plussat: Rob and Anna are wonderful hosts, the grounds are beautifully kept and Angel kept the unit lovely and clean.

Plussat: Despite a few cons, we all loved staying at this hotel and would recommend others to stay here. The beach outside the resort is probably one of the nicest that we saw on the island and felt very private. If you want to relax undisturbed on a hammock then this is the right place. The two pools were good sizes and very clean. The whole resort felt very well maintained. We were very impressed with the standard and amenities of our rooms in the pool side villas. The quality of food in the restaurant (a la carte) was also very good (although breakfast is quite standard) - we also found the staff in the restaurant very friendly!

Miinukset: Unfortunately we found a couple of the staff on reception to be quite unfriendly and unhelpful when we had questions about activities on the island. We didn't have the best check in experience as we had to wait over an hour for our transfer (knowing this we would have got a taxi which works out the same price). We stayed at Sunset over Christmas, and it was a shame that more effort wasn't made around the hotel to put it in the Christmas spirit (E.g Christmas songs/ decorations on Xmas day, or even a special morning breakfast would have been a nice touch). The pool bar was also unstaffed the whole time we were there.

Plussat: The Sunset was everything we wanted plus more. Our meals including the daily continental breakfast were excellent. great cocktails made by Rua :-) very friendly helpful staff. Housekeeping ladies were fabulous even with all our questions and the unit was serviced daily apart from Sunday but the staff made sure we were substantially supplied. Facilities were fantastic, the pools were very clean and always very tidy.

Miinukset: The only thing we were not really happy with was the bed being two singles pushed together was not ideal, we would have preferred a complete mattress. Also the resident rooster was a pain crowing from 1.30am everyday.

Plussat: Lovely staff and facilities

Miinukset: Rooms were quite noisy

Plussat: Room 6...the best. Excellent ocean view and access. All staff..dining room, bar, cleaning..so helpful. And front desk staff...exceptional. Great location..quiet but easy access to town and Muri area. Food excellent.

Miinukset: The bed!! Sooo soft. Mattress very thick but no firmness. Needs replacement!!!! My only complaint.

Plussat: The very friendly hospitality.the general ambienceof the resort..

Miinukset: The price.far too expensive

Plussat: Loved its simplicity- not commercial, quiet, stunning location and wonderful, friendly staff. Delicious food as well.

Miinukset: Nothing except maybe the bed, 2 doubles pushed together with egg crate. It could have been more comfortable.

Plussat: The two large and deep pools in proportion to the number of overall resort size, and beautiful garden surroundings make it an excellent place to relax and unwind.

Miinukset: Some improvements to the blinds could make the rooms more sound proof to keep out noises of roosters and guests that don't know how to keep their voices down outside when it's dark.

Plussat: This is our 3rd stay at the Sunset over the last 8 years and we'll keep coming back as we love it. The relaxing atmosphere, cleanliness, beautiful gardens, and fantastic pools make it the perfect place to enjoy and unwind. This we we tried another resort but only lasted two days before cancelling and booking into the sunset. The extra cost was worth it. Continental Breakfast was good with fresh local fruit and fruit salad every day.

Miinukset: The roosters....But that's part of life in the Cooks and you get used to them!! Maintenance on the metal window shades would help.

Miinukset: Facility was not airconditioned

Plussat: This is a compact Resort and I loved there was no hustle and bustle with masses of people. The staff are friendly, interactive and incredibly helpful with sharing their knowledge of the "Things to do" in Rarotonga. I am looking forward to heading b ack there again in a year or so.

Miinukset: It took a little while to get used to the roosters that roam wild but these are a challenge all over the island and are not restricted to just this area.

Plussat: The quite west facing beach. The approachable staff. the sound of the sea. The live music. Suggestions and advice on tours. New local doctor

Miinukset: The road noise. the cockroaches, the poor wifI at times. Could have been offered 3 days wifi hotspot free.

Plussat: Loved the staff , proximity to beach

Miinukset: Shipwreck bar which is part of the property only serves very limited food options, mostly heated in microwave. BBQ on the beach on Saturday night was cancelled,not enough people booked, very dissapointed.

Plussat: Location - a few steps to the water, great spot for snorkelling, wonderful sunsets. Friendly and helpful staff - all with a sense of humour! Accomodation - spacious, well laid out - all the basics for self catering - super strong shower! Substantial breakfasts included - fresh fruit, warm muffins, toast and spreads and of course the local coffee. Welcoming hosts, Steve and Geraldine have a depth of local knowledge which they willingly shared when approached for information eg local places of interest, walks, restaurants, markets.

Plussat: Great breakfast at the Shipwreck Hut Beachside, colourful tie-dye bedspread & curtains & cute bungalows

Miinukset: Lots of roosters around the property that start crowing at 4:30am right outside the bungalows!!!!

Plussat: Great breakfast experience! Great staff and the owners are utterly lovely. Really can't fault this place one bit, the bar serves a relatively limited menu but the food itself is very good and the bar staff are friendly.

Plussat: Position and privacy and loved the sound of the waves on the reef. Sheryl and John, the managers, were very helpful.

Miinukset: Thought room rate a little high. Pool was too cold. Wouldn't have liked to stay at a very hot time of year and had to pay for the aircon on top of room rate. We were happy with ceiling fan in July weather.

Plussat: Facilitys were great, staff friendly and extremely clean. Felt peaceful tranquil

Miinukset: Absolutely nothing

Plussat: Owner and staff were 100%

Miinukset: nil

Plussat: Beautiful secluded little place right on beach

Miinukset: closeness to restaurants

Plussat: n/a

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: Nicely situated between the main town and Muri with a regular bus stop outside the property. Good pool and free kayaks.

Miinukset: Restrictions on cooking in the apartment, lack of hanging space for clothes and although there is a lovely beach the rocks and coral makes swimming in the sea a challenge!

Plussat: This property was kept very clean, lovely hosts. Had everything you need on a holiday, beautiful pool which we used a lot

Miinukset: Air Con was set on one temperature, happy to pay $2 per hour & 1/2 but would prefer to be able to increase as required, was super hot & was hard to get to sleep. Unit 6 not sure what the other units were like.

Plussat: VERY HAPPY WITH THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE OF MY STAY AT SUNHAVEN.

Miinukset: THERE IS NOTHING I DIDNT LIKE

Plussat: Beautiful Beachfront Bungalow on the edge of the lagoon. Very low key and friendly. A little off the road so no traffic noise. Owners & Managers were fantastic. Would definitely come again

Plussat: Close to beach and good restaurants

Plussat: Owners are very nice and helpful. Room is clean and tidy. You can access the beach within one minute.

Miinukset: It’s not by the beach. The owner built too many villas on a small land. no view at all, all you can see on your balcony are the other villas, roofs, and someone else’s bed.

Plussat: The villa we got was perfect! The kitchen had EVERYTHING we needed and more. The living room was great and comfortable. It was a very relaxed feel throughout. The beach was just a very short stroll away - hammocks and lounge chairs!!! Great to watch the sunset or just have an afternoon nap! Location: close to some very nice restaurants and a great bakery! Matt and Adele are great hosts - great knowledge handed to us as first-timers to the Island. We'll be back! THANK YOU!!!

Plussat: Adele and Matt are lovely hosts and happy to chat or help with local advice. The apartment was spacious and well equipped, except the oven wasn't working which meant cooking options were restricted. Good sized fridge. It's a short walk to the beach for beautifully warm swimming/snorkelling, and their swing seat on the beach is a perfect sunset spot. A scooter is handy for transport as it's a way from the main centre, but you need a full motorcycle license to hire. Otherwise there is a bus once an hour. Free-range (friendly) dogs on site.

Miinukset: Only niggle is paying top dollar for an 'Ocean View room' which wasn't as advertised. There is no ocean view, apart from a glimpse through trees. They are new owners and have since changed the listing description. The pre-arranged airport taxi is overly expensive for a ten-minute ride ($22 per person), although you get a fresh flower garland (lei) on arrival which is nice. Internet access is prohibitively expensive for this day and age.

Plussat: Loved the staff/owners friendliness! Very informal settings including DVDs, laundry, small pool (we never used), water toys such as masks, snorkels, water shoes, ocean kayaks. Well landscaped alleys, private villas. Not exactly waterfront, but 50m (150') walk from the beach is still a great location!

Miinukset: In USA early check-in, late check-out is a common courtesy (of course based on availability) that appears to be not the case here in the Cook Islands.

Plussat: Very friendly and helpful hosts. Great location

Plussat: Host were great! DVD selection saved the day. Restaurants next door. Plenty of souvenirs downtown and convenience store nearby. There are two fitness centers in town that open in the AM and have showers just in case. 2 miles from the center of town. Beach access is two minute walk.

Miinukset: Cable news or some sort of TV programming would be great. Free AC would be even better. Tourist information and pamphlets about the island, restaurants, etc. Taxi over charge was unexpected. :-(.

Plussat: The cleanliness of the property the comfort of the bed the stunning beachside’ with kayaks&beach shoes provided’.No faults thank you Cooks Oasis

Plussat: Matt is a CHAMPION. Top setup. Reasonably priced. Lots of little extras to make the perfect holiday spot.

Plussat: Clean, comfortable beds, friendly and accommodating staff.

Plussat: The location was excellent and the hotel grounds well maintained. We liked the restaurant: food, staff and the nightly entertainment there were very good

Miinukset: Reception - nothing we have asked or ordered through reception was done correctly: * Booked a table for dinner, the restaurant wasn't notified * Ordered boxed breakfasts for the next day, the restaurant knew nothing about our request. * Ordered a prepaid transfer to the airport - not a cheap option at $60 for party of three for just 4km taxi ride. The pickup time was set to 9:30 p.m. and the reception closes at 5 p.m so given the prior experience I have twice confirmed the time and got assured that the driver will be available. When we showed up for pick up there was no driver to take us to the airport, worse, the security person did not even have our name on the transfer list that night. AC Unit in the room was randomly stopping and had to be manually activated several times a night. Stray dogs and chicken were roaming freely throughout the property, roosters making loud noise all night interrupting sleep Beware - the resort charges a 3% fee for all credit card transactions. You can charge the restaurant bill to the room number, but then the hotel will add the credit card fee to it. There is no extra fee if you pay directly to the restaurant.

Plussat: The Location is Paradise and in my opinion way superior to the more 5 star known resorts on Raro. The restaurant staff and food quality also superior to the Muri competitors.

Miinukset: This time only 8 days.

Plussat: Great food at restaraunt

Miinukset: No free WiFi. The resort is over run by wild roosters crowing at 3am in the morning very annoying

Plussat: The location is amazing,easily the best thing about Manuia. the pool area is awesome, restaurant is ok, expensive. Rooms are very spacious, love the outdoor shower.

Miinukset: Noisiness. Our room was beachfront and close to the restaurant. Loud pepple early in the morning and close to the sevice alley was a downer. Had to buy data that didnt work in our rooms and no real help from staff. Had to sit outside office to contact family.

Plussat: Staff really nice! Great location!

Miinukset: The chickens walk freely for the resort woke up me very early in the morning! Every morning!

Plussat: I liked the proximity to the beach

Miinukset: I thought the room looked average - sparse furniture, not very inviting.

Plussat: The pool was nice and bar staff friendly.

Miinukset: The plumbing was inadequate with poo coming up the basin. I could not eat at the restaurant as there were lots of flies. The mattresses on the loungers were dirty and smelly.

Plussat: enjoyed the consistent and high level of service, great food nice off beach private bungalow - well setup

Miinukset: beach not as nice as muri for general swimming activities due to the closeness of the outer reef and lack of much open area for swimming

Plussat: Private pool

Miinukset: Food was booring & not kept topped up

Plussat: Staff were fantastic

Plussat: Loved our private cabana and pool, very romantic and peaceful!! Very nice cottage!!!!! Enjoyed snorkeling out front and close to getting a scooter to travel around the island!! Ordered a drink of the day and it was delivered to private cabana...very nice service!!

Miinukset: Breakfast would run out of a few things...sometimes short on food items...

Plussat: Buffet breakfast was excellent, and they had eggs cooked to order.

Plussat: The beachfront location is stunning and the bungalows are well designed. Access straight onto the beach was a real bonus. The staff were always happy and cheerful. Although small, the pool was perfect.

Miinukset: Having to pay for wifi which was narrow and severely limiting. The single channel tv was annoying when it was raining and nothing to do and 50% in Chinese. Mosquito's and Sand Flies were a real problem with no deterrent issued by the hotel. I got bitten a lot. Storm damage repairs were being carried out in front of our bungalow during our stay, but no compensation or discount was offered although the workmen were there every day in front of our beach front bungalow. They were our view.

Plussat: Very friendly staff always welcoming, breakfast was always well made highly recommend to try rukau, delicious. Always peaceful and quiet, felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. Security, housekeeping and swimming equipment were amazing. Highly recommended.

Miinukset: The beach wasn’t really visible from our beachfront villa due to untamed trees. I know it would have been a lovely view.

Plussat: Excellent, friendly staff who did their utmost to ensure that our family were informed of the best local shopping, rental car hire, favourite restaurants, Entertainment, Markets, the Tides (which is really important), loved that we had our own private beach outside the gates

Miinukset: thicker toilet paper would have been better

Plussat: Clean and convenient

Plussat: Location and the staff

Miinukset: No air conditioning. Furniture tired looking and could do with an upgrade.

Miinukset: Everything

Plussat: My parents enjoyed their stay. It was easy to find and it wasn't far from the city. The beach is right across the road and the rooms look just like the pictures. The staff there were very accommodating. Overall my parents were very happy with their stay and I would recommend this place to everyone.

Plussat: Friendly. Across from a great beach.

Miinukset: No bar that I remember

Plussat: Rangi and her staff are amazing. A superb location and fab service. Thanks Rangi for a magic stay!

Plussat: The staff were friendly

Miinukset: The fact we had asked in advance to be picked up from airport and nobody came...we had to find our own way at 2am... linen wasn't changed until the day we left...,we were there for 7 days

Plussat: We had a beachfront villa, lovely sea views and private beach..bus stop at gate, established gardens.

Miinukset: Washing machine pretty old and dated, only 1 for all the units to share. Rooms pretty basic, with AirConditioning unit above the bed being old, disconnected, so not working .

Plussat: Good location for the airport if you’re stopping over for a couple of nights but not the best place for long stay in Raro. Big room, well equipped, large bathroom. Short walk from the Blackrock Beach (less than 1 min).

Miinukset: Basic finish and expensive for the standard offered. Staff never on site so all communication done by email. Not much around apart from beautiful beach. Shower only suitable for short people (below 175cm).

Plussat: Sijainti hyvä, terassilta rantanäkymä. Ranta rauhallinen, vain bungalowien asiakkaat, eli muutama. Henkilökunta ystävällinen ja avulias Perushuone, astioita vähän, meille riittivät.

Miinukset: Bungalow pidetiin siistinä, mutta mm. kylpyhuone oli kärsinyt kosteudesta niin, että kaapit ym. kosteat ja mustuneet.

Plussat: Didn’t have any so I wouldn’t know

Miinukset: The taxi driver ripping me off

Plussat: We stayed at the Reef Motel because of its proximity to a wedding venue we were checking out. It also is close proximity to the airport. We were very happy with the accommodation. Unfortunately the weather wasnt the best but we felt safe in our room whilst the wind blew and it poured with rain!!!

Plussat: The room was nice, and close to the beach. It is a nice resort close to the Edgewater Resort, and with well kept grounds.

Miinukset: I was not happy to pay 3.5% fee for paying with a Debit Card (not a credit card). I was not happy to hear that the staff are paid a very low wage, and that they did not receive what they were contracted to get.

Plussat: The location of the property is a major plus, being so closed to the airport and downtown area. A local bus stop is in front of the property making it very easy to ride buses everywhere instead of having to rent a car. A small property and the owner is very considerate and helpful in every way to make my stay as enjoyable as it can be, such as early check-in and late check-out which is very important for U.S. travellers since flights usually arrive early in the morning and depart very late at night. The nice porch in the villas is very suitable to see the sunrise and sunsets. The staff was also very helpfull and friendly.

Miinukset: The property really needs a good fumigation because of insects inside the rooms such as ants and some other flying bugs. I even saw rodents in the property. Faucets should be replaced in some showers. A few upgrades will change the property for better since it has a nice but rocky beach. Agua socks are must to walk on the beach and also for swimming., It is cozy and basic and good for the money .

Plussat: The location was great 10 min walk to Edgewater where rest of family was staying. Has its own beach area which was very nice. The staff were very friendly and approachable and helped in any way possible to make your stay stress free .

Miinukset: Roosters wake you up every morning they run wild all over Rarotonga does not matter where you stay, but got used to them.

Plussat: Perfect location for my work being close to town. Clean and the room was quite spacious.

Plussat: Close to town and the beach. Chantelle was super friendly and helpful! Good value. Bus stop right outside. Flexible check in/check out and easy transfers to the airport.

Miinukset: A little lonely staying there on my own, and it was quiet, but it was a great location and close to town with a bus stop right outside so easy to get out and about.

Plussat: After traversing the many wonderous places on the Island of Rarotonga during the day, it was great to retreat to the paradise Inn at night. I really was surprised by the staff who make it a pleasure to stay at P.I Cookislands. They went above and beyond expectation to help make my stay an enjoyable one. Manager Chantelle & all the support staff were very understanding & always willing to facilitate assistance with travel plans or give valuable advice when it was needed. Great beach access, close to shops&town. To further explore the Island, it's easy to rent a bike or car from www.polynesianhire.co.ck My room was 3star (as advertised), but I felt like I got the 5star treatment. Considering the price I paid for the length of stay; I would look to revisit Paradise again.

Miinukset: The place could do with an upgrade

Miinukset: Chantelle is a great host, very helpful, told me evertyhing I needed to know, where to go, where to eat, best beaches. Room was tidy, cleand ever day. Tea, coffee, refrigerator, toster in the room. Close to stores, bus stop in front of the hotel. Small beach right next to it. I loved staying there.

Plussat: Chantelle and the size of the rooms were the best parts.

Plussat: Close to beach

Plussat: great location great veranda very friendly very helpful late checkout no problem great value

Miinukset: some renovations needed

Plussat: Good shower. Nice and clean. When we didn't have the room serviced, we were offered a $15 credit to spend at the bar or restaurant which was lovely.

Miinukset: Our room was so far from the front of the building. Was a tad to quiet for what me and my husband wanted but still lovely.

Plussat: - nice hotel for Relaxing - perfect snorkeling - great views

Miinukset: - poor breakfast - staff could be more motivated

Plussat: The staff were amazingly friendly and the resort is in the most beautiful location with great facilities!

Miinukset: The food was average

Plussat: I stayed here briefly at the end of my fortnight's holiday touring and hiking in Rarotonga and Aitutaki. My first week in Raro had been in a lovely Airbnb private apartment but I wanted a touch of luxury before my long flight back to Los Angeles and London and onward. Check-in was friendly and efficient when I arrived late evening from Aitutaki and the receptionist was very helpful over the phone when I had a query during my stay. The room was really lovely and had been cooled down especially for my arrival. The bed was super comfortable! Breakfast offered plenty of choice and was available during several hours. I didn't eat in the restaurant or drink in the bar so cannot comment, neither partake in any of the Spa treatments as there wasn't enough time during my short stay. Housekeeping was excellent, replenishment efficient . Maintenance man fixed a small issue with TV volume control promptly. The local bus calls in to the connecting adjacent resort which is convenient for exploring Raro. I had booked Pa's Trek cross-island on my last day (highly recommended if you're fairly fit) so I didn't spent much time at the resort nor try out the swimming pool. The beach is separated by a stream on one side and wall on the other so is quite private and the lagoon is lovely for a dip or to go snorkeling, etc.

Miinukset: I booked TWO nights even though I only slept one because I had a very late check-out to LAX on the second evening. Other guests who were passengers on the same flight had merely requested a very late checkout which would have been a much cheaper option but presumably not always guaranteed to be available (it's currently low season though).

Plussat: The hotel is on a beautiful bay for snorkeling

Miinukset: The Breakfast was terrible, the fruit was off and little to choose from. Not worth the money at all. I had arranged a taxi from the hotel to pick us up from the airport, when we arrived they didn't pitch. We never received an apology either. They also sprung a $100 nightly deposit on us when we checked in. This was not mentioned on any previous communications.

Plussat: Great location and very friendly staff - they are easily one of the best parts of staying here. Cosy rooms with everything you need.

Miinukset: Some parts of the resort/rooms could use a little TLC but only minor things. Some of the restaurant food was hit or miss.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Facility really needs a lot of TLC.

Plussat: Location, room presentation and organisation around resort in general. Really nice staff!

Miinukset: More or less all was ok, but the resort is definitely UNDERSTAFFED!

Plussat: Good location. Clean and tidy. Beautiful facility. Yummy food in the restaurants. Jug of drinkable water supplied in fridge. Free use of kayaks and swimming equipment. Easy parking. Bed was big and very comfortable. Gorgeous decor in room. Air conditioning made the room comfortable in the heat. Beautiful beach location. Restaurant staff are so lovely and friendly. The entertainment was beautiful.

Miinukset: Wasn’t told at any stage of communication before arrival that a room bond of $100 was needed, or that I had to leave my passport there if I didn’t put the bond down. Room was not what I thought it was, said “beachside” but instead got an upstairs room and no view of the beach at all. It was more like garden side. Room was expensive for one night so I was expecting a lot better. No one had canceled the taxi for the airport transfer even though I messaged them 2 days prior. Activities hut was closed so no beach towels were available for a night swim. Pool closed at 8pm so no night swims. Upon check out, I was asked if I had argued with someone at checkin, which I didn’t. This indicated to me that staff must write things about you in their system. I didn’t feel good about the place after that.

Plussat: Loved it all . best holiday

Miinukset: Spa bath didn't work

Plussat: The Fijian staff were lovely..and the lady who taught us how to tie pareu. Room was clean.

Miinukset: Some of the staff at front office. Down right rude! We got no hello welcome just where's your booking..a cruise ship had come in so they took 1 st priority..I waited in line at the bar like everyone else and they kept serving everyone but me. Rude rude rude..not all..the Fijian staff very nice.as for the others rude. Will never return and will spread the word not to go their either

Plussat: The people, the views, the water, the animals and the food were all so amazing I can't recommend this island enough! Even traveling from so far away we know we will be back for our next big special celebration. An absolute must on a travel top ten list! Kia Orana!

Miinukset: The bed is my only complaint. It says we booked a king and the size was accurate however it was actually two twin mattresses put together and one was a very different firmness so it sank down on one side. This was very disappointing for our honeymoon as we are a snuggle to sleep type couple. But this is the only thing I can complain about, everything else was incredible.

Plussat: - perfect Location for snorkeling - great views - Rooms were fine

Miinukset: - very poor breakfast - staff not motivated - AC loud

Plussat: The bed was extra large with mosquito nets which was helpful. Generous breakfasts with plenty to choose from including an array of fruits and breads, pastries, cereals. The staff were all really lovely and helpful. You need to be aware of and get adjusted to island time! I required a hospital visit whilst there unfortunately but the staff were only too willing to help with taxi arranging etc - be warned though as everything is so expensive

Miinukset: Could have been cleaner and more modern although it had island charm. We were asked for a bond if $100 per night we were there which we weren’t expecting. WiFi very expensive and was used up very quickly so for checking in online for fights and me wanting to sort travel insurance for hospital visit worked out very expensive.

Plussat: Great

Miinukset: Front desk staff and old bathrooms

Plussat: Liked being close to the beach and pool. Very friendly staff with good level of activities

Miinukset: Wardrobe space was very limited. What have liked a can opener.

Plussat: The beach and the snorkling. Probably one of the nicest beaches on the Island. Good live music in the evenings. Good activities desk and free water sport equipment.

Miinukset: The day after the Corona Virus was declared a pandemic the Cook Island allowed passengers from a cruise ship to visit Rarotonga and the Rarotongan Resort (other passengers went to other resorts and the Muri Markets). The resort had about 70 passengers visit by bus and use the facilities for the day, including lunch. Many passengers from the ship independently made their way to the resort and mixed with resort guests while dining. We have since been told that the ship was denied access to Aitutaki yet cruise ship passengers bypassed that ban and flew there instead from Rarotonga. Other cruise passengers are leaving the cruise and flying on commercial flights back to Auckland to beat coming travel bans. Just madness and an unneccassery risk. What will the Cooks Is do if any of those passengers are confirmed with the virus in the next two weeks?

Plussat: Air con

Miinukset: WiFi was expensive

Plussat: I loved a lot. The staff were very friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble for them. I liked that they greeted me every time they saw me. I loved my service in my room. I loved the pool and the seating area around the pool and the restaurant. I loved the evening menu, the food was great and the area was was spacious.

Miinukset: I didnt like The rocks in the water at the beach in front of the resort.

Plussat: lots of people around that made it lively and really nice staff

Miinukset: You couldn't drink the water from the tap in Rarotonga (this was a surprise to us) and the Edgewater resort only gave us one bottle of water for free when we arrived. That means we stayed at a hotel for a week where you had to purchase your drinking water from the bar. I think this is unacceptable. My view is that your accommodation has an obligation to supply you with free drinking water. I also think you should add to your website that drinking water is an extra charge.

Plussat: Generous room size in the Garden view rooms. Friendly & helpful staff everywhere, and a pleasure to interact with. There is construction going on, however with the doors closed you can barely hear it. Location is good too.

Plussat: The whole hospitality service, friendliness, kindness, helpfulness & beautifully surrounded representing the 15 islands of the Cook islands

Miinukset: None

Plussat: Happy friendly staff and great value

Plussat: I had always heard the edgewater waa quite run down and old school but the staff were very friendly, it was tidy and well presented. Food was great and amazing cocktails. The pool was nice for all ages and the coco lods club sounded great for our children. The night crab races were a hit. Unfortunately we missed the island night but will definitely do that next time. Loved our 3 bedroom villa, even had a washing machine. We would stay again with our family.

Miinukset: The beach itself isn't very nice, very stoney and not ideal for children. Also being a big resort it was a big walk in the heat to get breakfast. A bit of construction going on around the beach area too

Plussat: I like the relaxed friendly atmosphere

Miinukset: I liked everything

Plussat: Breakfast, location and people were very good. Resort giving us room at end while we waited for flight was much appreciated. Missing that place and the trip we had with our family provided great memories for us all. Thanks

Miinukset: Nothing to report here.

Plussat: Great spot close to the airport. Just a short walk to town. Fantastic bar and food.
