    The island seems to be recovering from the Covid lockdown.

    The island seems to be recovering from the Covid lockdown. There were more tourist businesses than we remember from ten years ago but some great ones have gone. Still a very peaceful place to spend a week and the island never seemed busy even though it was NZ school holidays. Vaima’s is still a great beach restaurant and I had my best meal of the holiday (fish curry) there. Fantastic ika mata everywhere I went, plus great tuna steaks and sashimi. Snorkelling with turtles was a treat and worth doing but do book before you arrive on the island if you can. The Round Rarotonga Road Race was a great event if you’re a runner, as was the cross island “Nutters Run”. Also the Hash House Harriers running group was very friendly. Renting a car from Raro Cars was cheap and made everything easy.

    Rarotonga is so beautiful, and the people are wonderful (well, except for the one grouchy bus driver who is tired of tourists). I appreciate how well the residents care for their island home. It’s a very special place.

    The people, beaches, lots of activities all day long, groceries to be honest, its not as expensive as Ive seen on Facebook. Considering the cooks has to ship or freight their cargo across and the mark up was not that bad, however I'm only talking about the two of us travelling, it may be for big families. Otherwise looking forward to our next trip next year

    The weather was not warm enough for swimming and snorkeling every day (which we had hoped for) as the lagoon is very beautiful. Thankfully we had no rain so we walked a few of the very beautiful (but hard) walks on the island. The groceries on the island are very expensive but the restaurant prices are on par with Sydney prices so we ate out every night although we booked self contained accommodation. The restaurants are excellent and most have beautiful views. Read reviews on Tripadvisor. There is a bus service on the island but for convenience and to save time we hired a car. People are really lovely and the day trip to Aitutaki an absolute must! Book that one early. A week was just right.

    You need at least 10 nights to make the most out of this visit and do some activities but give yourself some down time days as well. The Island is absolutely beautiful, and we will definitely be back.

  • Tropical Retreat Rarotonga

    Arorangi, Rarotonga
    Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.4
    Wonderful - What previous guests thought, 44 reviews
    One of the best locations ever! Everything is close by (best snorkelling places, beaches to watch humpback whales from, shops and locations for spa/massages, restaurants and car rentals, and the most wonderful hosts, we were greeted at the airport with beautiful flower necklaces and warm welcome, so lovely! We were also brought back to airport when we had to leave at 1.00 am in the morning! Thank you Angela and William, if we will be lucky enough to visit Rarotonga again, we will definitely book with you again!

    Beautiful views, easy access to the beach, free kayaks, daily towel change and room cleaning are just some of the things we loved about Kuras Kabanas. It was utter bliss waking up to the sound of the ocean, the breeze on our faces and the delicious warmth of the cook islands. We would certainly return here in the future.

    Fantastic view, good location for sightseeing, calm and peaceful, excellent amenities and very responsive and helpful host. The beach towels were so plush as well. Ideal for us as we hired a car. This was the best accommodation of our entire holidays in the Cook islands.
