Place which makes you feel rich The best place on Raratonga. It’s located in Muri, just in front of most famous and the most beautiful lagoon of whole island. In Muri there’s night market 4 times a week so if you want to try local food not for “tourist price” that’s the easiest place to go. Market is located 5 minutes on foot from hotel so you don’t have to wait for bus or rent a car just to eat dinner. Two houses away are lagoon cruises departing points so we got every morning a bit of live music for free. Also, around 10 min on foot there’s Te Vara Nui - “island night” entertainment, the only one with stage on water. Beaches on Raro are public but the land in front of them is not so access to beach is a bit tricky if you don’t have accommodation with direct access. This hotel has desk overlooking lagoon and stairs to beach so from your bed you have like 1 minute to beach :) Hotel itself is tiny but that’s its great advantage. It is very private - 5 bungalows for max 2 people, with “only adults” rule and pool just next to beach it makes you feel like you are in place for billionaires, when you actually didn’t have spend that much. Bungalows have huge verandas with chairs and table, where you can have breakfast enjoying ocean or mountain view. Rooms are very spacious, high ceiling with underside of roof open, fan (you really need it to sleep), big comfy bed, love seats just amazing - so comfy I could sleep in them. There’s bathroom on one side and kitchenette on the other, behind bed. There’s everything you need in kitchen if you decide to cook - even mixer to make smoothies from fresh local fruits. I have read in description of the place there would a welcome local fruit if available and I thought it just for show, when actually we got a bowl of local bananas (banana tree was just next to our veranda) and limes. Room is equipped with everything you might need - there’s chair pillows for chairs on veranda and on desk in front of beach.

This is literally a little paradise. Greeting was warm and staff are very friendly throughout the whole stay. The room was so clean and beautiful. The whole resort has a true Polynesian ambiance. The beach was like a little gem, with plams and white sand. Water was so warm and amazing turquoise colour. Restaurant had a great selection of seafood dishes and the chef was so good. He could make us some special dishes that weren't on the menu. (Thanks William) We also had a massage session and it was a great experience. (Thanks Mary)

Best part of the beach, right on the water, big room, big comfy bed, paddle board, kayak, snorkeling. Didn’t even need to leave the hotel. We were able to get a microwave to our room which helped a lot to make lunch in our room. The little hotel restaurant right on the water is beautiful, can see whales in the distance. Restaurant food delicious and affordable. Happy hour cocktails delicious and look amazing. Conveniently located

The location was perfect, next door to night markets, tapas restaurant across the road, we had a garden room 12, right outside was the pool, great for my grandchildren who were in the room next door, stroll out the back of resort to the lagoon, walk slong the beach to pacific resort bar, and sailing club, had beautiful photos taken in the garden, it was perfect for us. Would definitely go back.

The location couldn’t be more perfect, the western side of the island is perfectly protected by wind and so close to the reef edge you get such a close up experience with the whales. The accomodation is impeccably clean and run by the friendliest staff. Highly recommend booking a beachfront suite, it truly feels like a private beach just for you.

Tashi was a great host, you didn't know she was around unless you needed anything. The location was perfect. 24 hour fuel, food, liquor right across the street. The bungalow right on the beach, the deck was perfect for coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening. I'll be back.

The rooms were huge, the pool was clean, the pool area was beautiful. Especially the restaurant staff was incredible. The room was always clean. Overall, the stay was spot on. Thank you so much for having me!

The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. Couldn’t have picked better accomodation. Groundsman Jek was super helpful and welcoming. Would recommend to a big family/ group. Thank you Kevin & Tina
