Hotels in Arorangi, Rarotonga

We absolutely adored the villa! It was stunning, clean, well laid out and the pool was a huge highlight of our stay. Maria our host was so welcoming and helpful!! We will 100% stay here every time we visit!

Great help from the staff - whatever you ask, taxi, scooter rental

Perfect bungalows with everything we need! The owners treat you like family! We love it

This was very unexpected but it was one of our most favourite stays during our travels. Mireka is the most wonderful host/person you can meet. We loved to stay with her and share her house. Thanks for all the help and all the conversations, we were really happy to meet you, Mireka and Poroa! The house is very big and clean. We were allowed to use the kitchen and had our own bathroom. Mireka even emptied some cupboards and one side of the fridge in the kitchen so we could put our food there. The beach is only some minutes away by foot and it is paradise because there are almost no people at the beach.

Relaxing place with friendly staff. Very clean house with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, dining room and well equipped kitchen. Everything very spacious. Very nice pool. Great location, very close to the beach and Rarotongan Beach Resort as well as bus station, everything 150-300 meters. Very good Wi-Fi. Highy recommended!!!

We loved our stay at JJ'sRetreat! Jason & Jaime are wonderful hosts. They were so friendly and easy going and shared a lot of knowledge about the island. They have a wonderful slice of paradise in Rarotonga at JJ's Retreat. The self-contained villa had everything we needed for our 10 day stay. It was very clean and tidy, the kitchen was well equipped with cooking equipment and basic cooking ingredients such as oil, salt and pepper, and a great BBQ so we could cook our own meals. Tea/coffee/milk for the first day was provided, as was basic toiletries, but we brought most of what we needed with us from NZ or bought from the local supermarket/take away, Wigmore's, which is a short easy 10 min cycle down the road. Water in the villa is filtered for drinking. The gardens around the property are beautiful and well kept, along with the swimming pool which we enjoyed everyday! We were so lucky to be the only couple there so we had the whole place to ourselves. The property is set back from the main ring road (5 min walk) so it is very quiet and peaceful. The Raro bus will pick you up/drop you off at the main road and so it is very easy to get around without a car. JJ's is located close by to the best snorkelling on the island - Fruits of Raro to the east and Aroa to the west. The bikes provided allowed us to cycle to Aroa beach to enjoy snorkelling at our own pace. We also cycled to Wigmore's Waterfall for a swim and picnic. After adventuring every day it was wonderful to come back to our villa and enjoy our evening on the deck. The use of the washing machine was great too, and there was a phone to call local numbers to make reservations. The bed was so comfortable and the villa was kept cool by its design and the wonderful big fan above our bed! They were happy to arrange a late check out for our late flight. Jason & Jaime have thought of all the little details that make a holiday extra special.

I like the whole experience at Edgewater. From the moment we arrived at the airport we were greeted with flower necklace and the cold water (which we brought to NZ as souvenir as the bottle was aluminum), to the warm welcome receptionist and so on. All the staff were so accommodating and they made us feel at home especially Adi who did our room service, she's very friendly. To Elijah and John from the bar, they're hardworking. To Apii from Coconut Club, thank you for looking after my kids. I would recommend this place to my friends and we'll definitely comeback.

Stunning view from this oceanfront and upscale villa. The deck is very large with glass partitions so the view is absolutely unobstructed! The facilities are spacious and very modern and new. The beds are super comfortable with lovely linens and pillows. The bathrooms are amazing with a shower to die for. Plenty of hot water and towels. The kitchen had every amenity possible even an espresso machine with pods provided. All the appliances are in perfect condition and the fridge was even stocked with a nice cold bottle of water and champagne!! Wow! Thanks! The living room furniture was nice and comfy. There is an excellent washer and outside clothes line for drying. We didn't need to use the AC because of the light breeze and weather we experienced but the AC is new and in each bedroom. We hope to stay here again!

Nice cosy bungalow in a beautiful garden. Close to the Muri beach. Very friendly and helpful hosts.

Place to stay 😍 An insider tip for Rarotonga, great villas right on the beach, lovingly furnished and very well maintained and tidy. The host Krystina is very warm and accommodating, one of the best hosts we have ever had. The villas have everything you need for self-catering/service and, very well equipped, there is a small supermarket within walking distance (2 minutes) and great cafes/lunch/dinner options about 5 minutes away. The night market takes place several times a week, which is outside the door 1min away. We got the tip from our host to get food there but eat and enjoy on the balcony with a sea view. There is also a canoe for each villa and bicycles are also available for free use. A transfer can also be arranged if required (25NZD p.p), we had a very nice driver. All in all, we had a great and wonderful stay and can fully recommend it, we will definitely come back. Thanks to Krystina & Team
