Sep 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxing retreat in Rarotonga Great accommodation setting off the main road, the house was perfect for our stay. At the end of the road is one of the best beaches in Rarotonga, we tried other beaches around the island but nothing compared to this spot. We had a car (which is recommended) as the shops, restaurant options and Muri were a short drive away. The house had a fantastic outdoor seating area and was well equipped. The owners were helpful and just a phone call away, they responded quickly to any of our requests. Would recommend to all. ##### Jo M.

Dec 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Hospitality Plus Perfect house and location with fantastic hosts who were delightfully helpful, entertaining and informative. House is close to great beach which we swam in every day - who knew you actually just float here! The location was perfect being away from main centre and had everything we needed. Our hosts spoiled us with fresh fruits and local fish - they even cooked our last meal for us which was amazing. I would never expect the level of care and help they gave to us to make our stay there so fabulous - just the best. We are all senior citizens so relished the lovely surrounds so close to the beach but still within easy driving to any entertainment we wished to attend. Would recommend to anyone, we loved it ! ##### Gabrielle K. Stayed 8 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brian L. Jul 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Tiare Ata Excellent My wife and I and three grandchildren stayed for the July school holidays. It was a quiet location away from Ara Tapu Road, but close to Bellas Beach, Muri, Wigmores and Turtles. Unlimited starlink wifi was great for us. The grounds were spacious for bikes and play. Children enjoyed collecting fresh passion fruit falls. The home was true to advert and can now be found on Google maps. Solar water heating is supplemented with electricity when required. Allen and Isabelle were wonderful hosts and clearly communicated throughout our booking and stay. Meitaki ##### Brian L. Stayed 11 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicola W. Jul 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Our stay ar Te Ara Ata, in Titikaveka was nothing short of amazing. The accommodation was beautifully maintained — clean, tidy, and with more than enough space for our family of five to relax and feel right at home. Set back from the road, the house was peaceful and quiet, with a spacious lawn that our son absolutely loved running around and kicking his ball on.the most difficult part was locating the property after arriving at stupid o’clock in the morning - but it was very much worth it! Just a short 5-minute stroll took us to one of the most beautiful beaches on the island — crystal clear waters, vibrant marine life, and the unforgettable experience of swimming alongside two sea turtles! With a supermarket just a 10-minute walk away and everything else we needed within easy reach, the location was incredibly convenient without losing that tranquil, tucked-away feel.But what truly made our stay unforgettable were our hosts, Isabelle and Allen. Their hospitality was beyond anything we expected. From fresh homegrown fruit dropped off to the mouthwatering raw tuna dish Allen prepared (his secret sauce is out of this world!), we felt so warmly welcomed and cared for.Thank you so much, Isabelle and Allen — your kindness and generosity made our Rarotonga holiday truly special. We wish you all the very best and hope to return one day!Ngā mihi nui! ##### Nicola W. Stayed 9 nights in Jul 2025
