This place is like a family. Everyone is very welcoming from the owner and manager to all of the staff. The beach is amazing. The shipwreck bar has good food and drinks. We had a great time. They built a pool while we were there which was a great little bonus. Will come back for sure.

Staff go above and beyond to provide guests with the highest level of support. It has become like a ‘second home’ as I have visited Rarotonga a number of times and love staying at the Edgewater. It’s very clean and comfortable. It has become rather expensive like a lot of accommodation on Rarotonga as prices have risen. Special thanks to Tametoa and Martha. Kindest Regards Anni

This place was so awesome, quiet and relaxed, the breakfast in the open walled breakfast room was so good, and it was also great for rainy day activities with loads of books, ping pong, and games. The lagoon is across the road and it’s a very short walk down the road to the lagoonarium filled with coral, fish and turtles. We felt very safe and secure. The staff were awesome. The pool was perfect for the kids. We were glad we hired a car in the end as it made getting about so easy.

    We loved our stay at Manuia Beach Resort. Excellent location, close to the airport and restaurants. Beautiful sunsets. Enjoyed a lovely dinner at the restaurant. Infinity Swimming pool with a view of the beach/sunset. Heaps of lounges and places to enjoy. We had scooters and this allowed a quick 5 minute ride into town. Shop across the road and scooter hire shop across the road also. Handy.

    A good family resort, beachfront. Good facilities, particularly the lovely Spa where we both had an awesome massage. Staff very friendly & helpful, breakfast was continental but could pay for cooked items. Some theme nights for dinner. Good value & great for children.

    This was our second stay at the Crown Beach resort and will not be our last. We love the privacy of the villa accommodation. The location is wonderful with a spectacular sunset every night and whales playing right outside the door during the day. The staff are amazing we just love it. The food was so good we ate on the resort the majority of our stay.

    The location was really great. There were many cafes and restaurants within easy walking distance. The family enjoyed using the kayaks and other water gear. The staff at Muri Beach Resort were very professional and helpful. The grounds around the resort were kept very tidy. We were always greeted with a friendly kiaorana.
