Paradise, the name of the place says it all!

Log box for key collection received pin via text, wifi available at extra cost, great location, our type of accommodation. Bus stop out the front if you didn't have a car or you could walk and take in the sites along the way, about 20 min walk.

The best place to stay on the island, if you prefer privacy and the beach was just down the house. Everything was perfect!

This place was a little piece of paradise, the house is open plan living with every thing you need in the kitchen and more. The views were amazing and you can swim depending on the conditions. Thank you for having us here it was a great find!

Perfection in Rarotonga

Property was on the beach, perfect view for a tropical island holiday. Owners were really accommodating when I mucked up our dates. Would definitely recommend this house to stay in and we would stay in it again. 10/10

Amazing stay in paradise

The views!!! The place has the most stunning views of the ocean and coconut trees you could ever see. Staying there feels like a dream. Moreover, you have your own beach just steps from the house. The location is also very convenient . You can walk to town in 20 minutes or if you don’t feel like walking, there’s a restaurant and a grocery store next door. If you don’t have a car or a scooter, there’s a bus stop nearby so getting around the island is pretty easy. The house has everything you can ask for and even more. The owners were in touch with us for the whole time and allowed us to check out later. Very appreciated. Thank you and we’ll definitely be back!

Fantastic

Only half an hour walk to town. Easy at low tide or along the road. Lovely setting. We could whale watch from the verandah and go snorkelling from the beach. The Fishing Club is 3doors down and great fun on a Friday night with the ukulele band.
