We had an amazing time at the hotel. Complementary kayaks and breakfast were awesome. Location is one of the best snorkeling spots on the island. The room was spacious with a stunning ocean view and golden sand beach. It was also great that the restaurant had some gluten-free options that is quite rare on the Island.

We liked that nothing was too much trouble. Very easy place to stay with everything in the room we needed. Great location on I believe the best beach in Rarotonga. Quite small and personal. Beach straight in front of our deck. We prefer this to a big resort and we had a real rest. Sandi and Glen
