I would have been happy to stay there a lot longer and would not hesitate to return. ##### Henry Stayed 11 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Benjamin Sep 11, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication The best part of our stay here was the owners and staff. They went above and beyond to ensure we had a pleasant stay, and accommodated our unique itinerary. Their commitment to sustainable tourism is quite evident, and little gestures, such as a sample of fresh muesli or a staff member coming in early to use your rental car to drop you off at the airport added the personal touch that’s so hard to find ##### Benjamin Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### James Aug 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication We rented e-bikes and were able to get to town, dive shop and snorkling reefs just fine. I felt safe waking and biking along the roadsThere are 6 good restaurants within walking distance (15 min). Staff was very friendly and helpful. The bungalos are clean and well maintained. I enjoyed the garden, bungalo porch and beachfront hammock. ##### James Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tamany Jul 9, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication My husband and I had a fabulous holiday at the beautiful Magic Reef Bungalows. The bungalows have every amenity (including reliable wifi) and are incredibly comfortable. The gardens, pool and beach front are immaculately maintained with gorgeous views, especially at sunset. Lawrence and Simone were welcoming and happy to help with anything we needed. We will definitely be returning with our whole family next year. ##### Tamany Stayed 10 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Teresa D Apr 10, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Simone and Lawrence have made Magic Reef a unique and wonderful holiday getaway. Bungalows are right on the beach. Excellent ocean view from the deck of our bungalow. Staff and crew are amazing. Electric cars for rent if you don’t want to take the bus that you can catch right up the road. Excellent snorkeling just up the beach and many restaurant options within walking distance. I would highly recommend Magic Reef for your Rarotonga holiday. ##### Teresa D Stayed 8 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria Sep 6, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Perfection in paradise. Beachfront with pool for afternoon swims. BBQ area and beachfront dining/seating. peaceful and private. Well looked after by our hosts. Comfortable and clean rooms. Bathe outside at night and look at the stars. Ev's and bikes for hire. A short walk to one of the best cafe's on the island. R and R easy at Magic Reef Bungalows. ##### Maria Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Marielle Apr 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Lovely smaller accommodation with the friendliest staff thinkable. You get a spacious room with a gorgeous bed and outdoor shower (none indoors but you don’t really have to with the weather). You get decent kitchen wear so you can cook yourself (2 induction pits) and a good toaster and coffee maker. Only downside for us was that they don’t have an onsite restaurant so you have to get groceries for breakfast, or any other meal, if you don’t want to go out. There are two restaurants close by (2 to 10 min walk) that offer lunch and dinner but they are not open all days. I would recommend getting a car so you can get to places to eat or swim as the reef right in front of the accommodation is nice but it doesn’t leave room to swim. The onsite pool however makes up for that too. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5cd07820-3c31-4b9f-b16c-c73d2e22bc43-1745888577096.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4d7000ac-629f-42cc-8338-ff7b846b275d-1745888580441.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ca22eb2f-a9d2-444e-8854-a375e425ba8e-1745888584230.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/dfde500e-5e39-49f2-86f7-310c0d997d5a-1745888588474.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Marielle Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert John Apr 24, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Hidden gem. Felt like a home away from home. The local staff were very friendly. Pool was lovely. Perfect sunset location. Very quiet, boutique experience. Amazing to fall asleep to the waves. The cabins were superb offering an authentic Polynesian experience with unique outdoor bathrooms. Only negative was not good for snorkelling or swimming straight off the beach. However just jump on some hire scooters, or catch an bus and pop down the road for Amazing snorkelling experiences. The location also offered hire EVs and electric bikes. Also free snorkeling gear. ##### Robert John Stayed 8 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rita May 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication We found Magic Reef to be an absolutely ideal resort property. The bungalows are very well designed and appointed and each has a view of the beach. The gardens are beautifully maintained and the waterfront gazebo and deck area was a lovely place to spend time watching the waves crash on the reef in the distance. Cars were available for rent on site which was very convenient and there were restaurants within walking distance along the beach - how great is it to walk along a sand beach to a table overlooking a Raro sunset? Magic Reef shows great pride of ownership and the staff is super helpful. There are three new beautiful bamboo bungalows with more than one bedrooms just being finished in the same design - which build on your vision of what a South Pacific ideal vacation place would be. You simply won’t find a nicer place on Raro. ##### Rita Stayed 8 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JJ Sep 19, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication This was exactly the high end, casual, accommodation I adore - ie. very high standard of lodging (comfortable bed, beautiful aesthetics, well appointed etc) but without the trappings of most generic hotel rooms (phone in bathroom and next to bed, room service etc. Instead it was glorious to stay in a place with only 7 other bungalows and consequently have the pool and beach almost exclusively for my partner and I. E-bikes, snokeling gear, ice, bbq, hire car and so much more always available. Just perfect given my preference for simple, elegant and beautiful. This is not a 'I had a wonderful holiday' rave - I am comparing it with many resorts around the world. I would recommend unless you are looking for a place with a lobby, bar and lots of other people. ##### JJ Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### shane May 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication Lovely well equipped bungalows on the west side of the island. Good location. Clockwise and Anticlockwise bus runs past resort every 30 mins I think it is. Or you can hire a car or scooter. Nothing is far. Our bungalow was closest to the beach. Balcony with sun lounges. Comfy bed. Free wifi was a bonus. Filtered water and ice free for guests. Nice pool and outdoor area. Beach unfortunately isn’t for swimming due to the reef scattered through it and the shallowness. I walked out to the breakers one day at low water, was good. They also have snorkel gear and reef shoes free for guests to use. Lawrence and Simonne are excellent, and will help with anything you need, also Jayne is there in the office as well, she can hook you up with anything needed. They also have electric hire cars and bikes. It’s a very relaxing place to be. You can do a lot, or you can just relax in a sun chair and do nothing. We had an outdoor shower and sunken bath at the rear of our bungalow, brilliant idea. We will definitely be visiting again. ##### shane Stayed 7 nights in May 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Barceló Bávaro Beach - Adults Only - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Barcelo-Bavaro-Beach-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h852099.Hotel-Information) > > [Motels Cambridge](https://www.expedia.ca/Cambridge-Motels.d10479-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels in Auckland Central Business District](https://www.expedia.ca/Auckland-Central-Business-District-Auckland-Hotels.0-n6052693-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Pitlochry](https://www.expedia.ca/Pitlochry-Hotels.d4228.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Melia Vinpearl Danang Riverfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Da-Nang-Hotels-Melia-Vinpearl-Danang-Riverfront.h24310425.Hotel-Information) > > [Moxy NYC Lower East Side](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Moxy-NYC-Lower-East-Side.h82937730.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Leavenworth](https://www.expedia.ca/Leavenworth-Hotels.d10786.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Koloa Landing Resort at Poipu, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Koloa-Hotels-Koloa-Landing-Resort-At-Poipu.h3812333.Hotel-Information) > > [Palm Grove](https://www.expedia.ca/Rarotonga-Hotels-Palm-Grove.h3636564.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Emerald Bay - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Mazatlan-Hotels-Riu-Emerald-Bay-All-Inclusive.h2461537.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Township of Woolwich (YKF) to Richmond (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ykf/yvr/kitchener-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from grand bahama intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/fpo/flights-from-grand-bahama-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Parañaque (MNL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/mnl/winnipeg-to-manila) > > [Flights from Toronto, ON (YYZ-Pearson Intl.) to Tokyo (TYO-All Airports)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/tyo/toronto-to-tokyo) > > [Flights from Kingston (KIN) to Goffs (YHZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/kin/yhz/kingston-to-halifax) > > [Flights from South Burlington (BTV) to Fort Lauderdale (FLL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/btv/fll/burlington-to-fort-lauderdale) > > [Flights from bradley intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/bdl/flights-from-bradley-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Harryda (GOT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/got/calgary-to-gothenburg) > > [Israir](https://www.expedia.ca/Israir-Flights.c6H.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [EVA Airways](https://www.expedia.ca/EVA-Airways-Flights.cBR.Travel-Guide-Airlines) ### Activities > [Things to do in Rochester](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Rochester.d602966.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [All inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations) ### Vacation Rentals
