People are warm hearted, fun and friendly.
People are warm hearted, fun and friendly. The countryside, mountains or hills and coastline very beautiful. Weather was good. Was easy to get around and loved the markets as well as food restaurants or eating places.Guest review byMarjNew Zealand - 8.0
This is a good area, it's not to busy with tourist.
This is a good area, it's not to busy with tourist. You might feel your left out from all the fun places. But if you have your own transport or you don't mind using the public transport then your not far from anything at all. Your on the right side of the island for the sunset, go next door and have a drink at the resort bar on the beach while the sun sets in front of you.Guest review byMiro - 10.0

Had a great time, I worked when there was no wind and went kite boarding when there was. The beaches there are beautiful with three different locations for kiting and a whole island if your not. for kiting, depending on wind direction, any one of them is an awesome place to kite. If you don't kite and you just want an awesome holiday near a beautiful beach, I couldn't recommend it more. Other islands within the Cook Islands offer great options, but cost more. If budget is an issue, then there is plenty to do on Raro and you will still experience the beauty of the tropical islands.Guest review byJasonAustralia - 10.0
Reflection is a beautiful and relaxing stay.
Reflection is a beautiful and relaxing stay. You have options to cool down from a beautiful private pool or the ocean within a few steps from your doors. Weather was not on my side but that did not stop me from having the best swim ever. I highly recommend this place.Guest review byMrs FataiNew Zealand - 10.0

Beautiful clear beaches with beautiful sunsets to go with it. The water is so clear, you can see the Coral as clear as day. Absolutely calming and stunning!

A truly relaxing break with an excellent reduced pace of life. Food superb and plenty of walking done by us but extremely easy to get around by private and public transport. Staff everywhere are friendly and welcoming, proud of their country, and rightly so.Guest review byMartinNew Zealand - 10.0
My partner and I personally feel that Arorangi is better...
My partner and I personally feel that Arorangi is better than the Muri area. The roads are a bit rougher and less maintained, but the lagoon and snorkelling is by far superior! We loved hanging out at the Aroa Marine Reserve which is by The Rarotongan Beach Resort & Spa. We swam with turtles almost every day - they just cruise past you. PLEASE DO NOT touch the turtles and respect their space - we always stayed at least an arms length from them or further away. I was sad to leave Rarotonga, we were there for 11 nights and it was just right. Not too long, not too short. The water seems way saltier than NZ water. The water quality is great and so clear in some places. The temperature of the water - WOW!!! Pretty warm and it was amazingly pleasant to swim in there. We went middle of March and it was perfect. Please never forget to apply reef-friendly sunblock even on your face as the UV rays can reflect on your face in the water. I burnt my face the first day I went snorkelling and the back of my legs - I learnt fast. The sun is not as harsh as the NZ sun though.Guest review byLee-Ann VHNew Zealand - 10.0

Beautiful beaches, just be mindful not to swim on Saturdays as it is their Sabbath day (head to Nikau beach on that day 😊) Wigmores is a few minutes away, cheap ice cream and donuts, hot meals too. Bring ear plugs if you’re a light sleeper, the roosters love to serernade the place all day long lolGuest review byStephenAustralia - 10.0
The warmth of both the Rarotongan people, the sun and water.
The warmth of both the Rarotongan people, the sun and water. We thoroughly recommend the self drive mud buggy adventure, lagoon cruise (we went with Captain Tamas) and visit to both the Muri night markets and the Punanga Nui market. tGuest review byAnnette and TonyNew Zealand
