This is a nice, tidy and spacious house with balcony overlooking Titikaveka and out to the sea - south coast of Rarotonga. Perfect for solo travellers or a couple who are looking for some peace and quiet away from the main road. That being said, its only a 15 minute stroll down to the beach anyway! and when I say quiet - I'm really being forgiving towards the roosters but they'll be hootering early in the morning wherever you go! You can either use the tourist bus, or handier still is a motor scooter to explore the backroads. Enjoy! Kia manuia ##### Jonathan E.
