I would have to say this easily tops any accomodion experience we’ve had. The villa was lovely and equipped with absolutely everything that you might need. The grounds and the pool are beautiful. Peter and Joelene know exactly how to find the balance between being amazingly hospitable while at the same time not being in any way intrusive. I would highly recommend this property. ##### Leanne Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shannon Jul 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication Great location, nice pool and Neil was very helpful and friendly ##### Shannon Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Oct 22, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Had a wonderful holiday at Arcadia!

We'll be back for sure. Great to have such a spacious apartment and private verandah. I like to cook from time to time while on holiday so it was great to have such a well equipped kitchen. Owners and staff very helpful. Across the road from a great beach and walking distance to bars for sundown beer and food! Well kept gardens and very clean pool which we had to ourselves most of the time. Quiet and peaceful (apart from the compulsory roosters of course standard to Rarotonga!) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 10 nights in Oct 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Oct 11, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Loved this property, pool and bbq area was awesome, large bedrooms, plenty of room for a family of 4 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 10 nights in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dawn Aug 6, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The location is great. Beds really comfy and general outlay fantastic. It would be ideal if there was another barbecue as only one barbecue to be shared by all villas ##### Dawn Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [InterContinental Grand Stanford Hong Kong by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Kowloon-Hotels-InterContinental-Grand-Stanford-Hong-Kong.h28082.Hotel-Information) > > [The Old Courthouse Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Powell-River-Hotels-The-Old-Courthouse-Inn.h9729171.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Woodside LaGuardia Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Woodside-Queens-NYC.h58131140.Hotel-Information) > > [Palm Grove](https://www.expedia.ca/Rarotonga-Hotels-Palm-Grove.h3636564.Hotel-Information) > > [Cabin Rentals Kitchener](https://www.expedia.ca/Kitchener-Cabins.d3000437010-aaCabins.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Huntsville by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Huntsville-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Huntsville.h1700889.Hotel-Information) > > [Sundial Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Whistler-Hotels-Sundial-Hotel.h882262.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Zion Canyon Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Springdale-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Zion-Canyon-Inn-Suites.h20392518.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Seaside](https://www.expedia.ca/Seaside-Santa-Rosa-Beach-Hotels.0-n183119-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Milestone Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Milestone-Hotel.h523756.Hotel-Information) > > [Windsor Hills Resort 7764](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Windsor-Hills-Resort-7764.h36343475.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Kitchener (YKF) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ykf/yyz/kitchener-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to San Salvador (SAL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/sal/vancouver-to-san-salvador) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Narita (NRT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/nrt/vancouver-to-tokyo) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yvr/toronto-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from New York (JFK) to Calgary (YYC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/jfk/yyc/new-york-to-calgary) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Paris (CDG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/cdg/toronto-to-paris) > > [Flights from Regina (YQR) to Calgary (YYC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqr/yyc/regina-to-calgary) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Masset (ZMT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/zmt/edmonton-to-masset) ### Cruise > [MSC Cruises](https://www.expedia.ca/MSC-Cruises.cMS.Cruise-Line-Info) ### Activities > [Things to do in Florida](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Florida.d211.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Emeryville](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Emeryville.d8073.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Jamaica](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/88/Jamaica) > > [Playland Amusement Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Playland-Amusement-Park-East-Vancouver.d6089615.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Thailand Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Thailand.d178.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Vigie Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Vigie-Beach-Castries.d6067639.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Cooper's Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Coopers-Beach-Southampton.d6326842.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Niagara Falls Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls.d6023515.Destination-Travel-Guides) ### General > [Visit Valley Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Valley-Village.dx6138315)
