Property was new. We were the 1st to stay at the property. Bonus was the pool. Felt like we were living in a hotel. Recommend this villa to anyone travelling to Raro. Host was always there when we needed things. Would go back there when we visit Raro.

Kia Orana Sharnytas Studio! Meitaki maata Sharnyta for the fabulous stay and for being such an amazing Host. From picking me up at Club Raro Resort and dropping me off and offering to stop at the shops to pick up a few essentials. It just made my stay extra special at Sharnytas Studio! It was nice, clean and cosy and close to everything. I enjoyed chillaxing on the deck and outdoor area. I will definitely stay here again and I can't wait to come back to Rarotonga!

I liked that the host Liana was very accommodating when making last minute adjustments. The suite itself was very beautiful, it was a 5 minute walk to the city,and very private. The air conditioning in both rooms was great for those muggy nights, the pool was fantastic too,it was just a great stay,would definitely stay there again.

The place is perfect for exploring the local culture. It’s close to the museum, library, church, and there are several restaurants nearby, as well as the Saturday market. You don’t need a car because the bus stop is just a few minutes away. The best part, of course, was the amazing staff who truly cared about me during my stay and pick me up from the airport and a different accommodation. I stayed twice at this small hotel. The pool is great, and breakfast at The Trout was fantastic. If you are picky with cleaning, this is your place 😉

The property had everything you needed for a stay it had everything from cleaning products to kids beach toys. We absolutely loved this stay the air-cons and wifi was an extra bonus especially being away from home being able to contact family was needed. Coffee tea sugar and salt and pepper was suppled as well this really helped when cooking having those little things we didn’t have to purchase. We hope to be back again one day.

The staff and location were great. They have hot and cold drinks plus affordable breakfast/lunch meals available by the pool. They changed the linen daily and were very trusting. We saw whales and had a friendly cat that we got attached to.

Lovely budget friendly place with everything you need for a relaxing holiday. Has a nice clean pool for swimming because the Inn is on the rocky side of the island so not ideal for beach swimming but stunning and picturesque view of the lagoon, ocean, sunrise and we even saw some whales, reef surfers and vaka training teams going by. Only a short (maybe 8 min drive) in either direction to some lovely swimming/floating beaches. Friendly, helpful staff and the takeaway hut prepared yummy fresh food.
