Avarua - all beaches

We had a fantastic time during our stay. The garden view room we stayed in was one of the newer ones and was exceptionally clean. The staff at the hotel were absolutely amazing, especially the guys at the Activity hut who were both talented and helpful. The location of Edgewater was very convenient as it was close to the bus stop. The food at the hotel exceeded our expectations in terms of value. It had a great selection of Kiwi tucker. The kids club was absolutely awesome, and once again, the staff there were amazing.

I had an absolutely incredible time snorkeling at the beach. The location is marked by a small Palm Tree and a Water Faucet, where you can rinse off your feet before heading out on your adventure. As you make your way towards the reef, you'll be amazed by the vast array of coral formations that you'll encounter. Keep going until you reach the spot where the coral is at its most magnificent, and you'll know it when you see it - you'll be surrounded by a plethora of fish and large, stunning coral formations. The water was about 5 feet deep when I was there, although I'm not sure what the tide status was at the time. All in all, it was an unforgettable experience that I would recommend to anyone who loves the ocean and its wonders.

Without question, the most ideal spot to stay on Rarotonga is undoubtedly here. The villas have been recently renovated and are situated directly on a stunning beach that offers a breathtaking view of the lagoon. It is incredibly peaceful as it is set away from the road leading to the lagoon, unlike many other accommodations in Rarotonga that are located along the road. The owners and management are exceptionally friendly and always ready to assist. This was our second stay and we will definitely be coming back. - Rob Towner

Wow, the beach looks absolutely amazing.

To be honest, the beds are a bit firm and the rooms are a bit worn out, and sometimes we had to remind the staff for beach towels or toilet paper... but let's focus on the positive things that Al, Lisa, and the amazing team are already addressing. This place is not like those generic and soulless resorts that you can find anywhere in the world. It has a cozy size with only 12 rooms, and it's located right on the beach (I mean, right on the beach!). We discovered the best snorkeling spot in Raro, which happens to be in the marine reserve just outside our doorstep. We even saw whales multiple times a day! The staff was incredibly accommodating and we had a blast. There were 12 of us and we felt completely at home. We definitely plan on coming back!

We recently stayed at Club Raro with our 1 and 7 year old children, and I'm really glad we had the opportunity to experience it before it becomes an adults-only resort. The staff at the resort are absolutely amazing, and I can't praise them enough. They are incredibly friendly, accommodating, and helpful. They went above and beyond to give our kids extra attention and love, which made our stay incredibly memorable. They happily catered to any of our needs. The resort itself is clean and well-maintained. While the rooms may be a bit small for a family, they are perfect for a couple or adults-only. The pool was fantastic for our kids, and the swim-up bar was a great bonus. The food at the resort is delicious, and we ended up eating most of our meals there. I highly recommend Club Raro and can't wait to visit again, this time without children, haha.
