Just have to thank our hosts for having us The complimentary welcome bubbles, sorry i don't drink bubbles but that was such a lovely gesture. Communication on point, We felt very welcomed and looked after. Beautiful, clean Whare would definitely stay here again and reccommend to family and friends. Every morning started with the rooster crowing and that bought back childhood memories Central to everything, but in the middle of the wop wops, it was Nice to be off the main road and inland, it reminded me of being in the Hokianga at home in Motuti.

I was there only 24 hours but they made it easy for me to check in late at night. The view was spectacular right next to the ocean. Loved hearing the ocean waves as I was going to sleep. I would’ve liked to stay longer but maybe next trip.

The location was great. Was a short distance to the Edgewater where family were also staying so worked out great. We hired a car luckily and would suggest hiring a car if you were to stay in the Villa as it is a distance to the activities and restaurants. The morning Fresh fruit platters and Coconut water was a highlight for sure ! Waking up to that each morning was awesome! The pool was a hit ! Such a spacious and inviting home with so many features, especially the deck out the front with built in speakers !

Such a nice place on Rarotonga, I couldn’t have picked a nicer place. Very clean and new studio, Sharnyta did everything so to make me feel very comfy. I had the best local experience on Rarotonga, a very nice local dinner at Sharnyta‘s place and I would definitely stay again at her place!

Absolutely wonderful accommodation and hosts. I do not even know where to start as we didn't just like everything about our stay, we loved it. I can not highly recommend enough. Beautiful location and accommodation, the most amazing hosts, we have ever had the pleasure of meeting. We can not thank you enough, Jodie and Bruce, for going above and beyond in every aspect of our visit/stay. We can not wait to come back again.
