Whilst the rooms are very basic compared to world standards, they are excellent for a remote island holiday.
Pool bar used every day, with excellent service both in the bar and restaurant. No children jumping in on you in the pool is a bonus!!!

Great trip. Very difficult beginning however, we arrived at Rarotonga at 6am in the morning after flying from Sydney at 9.30pm. Little or no sleep and our average age was 78. Access to our rooms were refused until 2pm that afternoon. Refusal also of any thing to eat or drink until we were officially 'guests'. So we were required to wait on the side of the road for a bus to take us into town to have something to eat and rest on a park bench. It would have been far preferable to have paid the additional day's accommodation and been allowed to rest in our rooms. Apart from that the resort was a nice place to stay.
