Sanctuary Rarotonga on the Beach (Adults Only)
3.7/541 Reviews
This is my 18th trip to the Cook Islands and this trip we stayed at Sanctuary Rarotonga On The Beach for a month. The location is superb with some of the best snorkelling on the island. There are plenty of activities within the resort and the staff are friendly and helpful. A special shoutout to staff members Loata, Alice, Memory, Moana & Moana (Moana x 2), Rachel, Dave and Christopher. Due to our long stay we got to know the staff well and saw their interactions with other tourists. They were always so helpful and friendly. I believe that a new executive chef will soon be on board along with new staff/chefs which will be great and we are looking forward to tasting some new food creations on our next trip. If you are looking for a relaxed holiday in a serene location then I highly recommend Sanctuary Rarotonga.
The Edgewater Resort & Spa
4.1/5106 Reviews
We stayed at Edgewater for 12 days as part of a holiday/work scout and it was beyond everything we expected. Basic room was perfect for our needs with great air conditioning which is essential and complimentary tropical continental buffets breakfast each morning. We had an amazing room which was on 3rd floor behind the restaurant with views of the pool, sea and stunning gardens from our window and balcony. The staff were so great, always happy and couldn’t do more for us including see us walking around the island and giving us rides in their personal vehicle and on their personal time. Complimentary snorkelling gear was well used by us and we ate frequently from the restaurant and definitely used the bar a lot. Got a massage at the spa which was blissful and easy to book in for. We will definitely be coming back again, I don’t think we’d want to stay anywhere else! Special mention to staff Ngaoa with reservations help and hospitality staff Veti, Jimmy, Mila and activities team. My only negatives were we had a room that seemed it adjoined to another by a double lock door but when someone was in that room it was not sound proof at all and was very loud. The guests that spent two nights there were unfortunately loud till the wee hours so that kept me awake. Luckily that was only for two nights and then they were gone.
Crown Beach Resort & Spa
4.2/541 Reviews
When you pay over $700 a night for a villa in a resort you have certain expectations on quality and service and I'm afraid the Crown Beach Resort fell well short of those expectations. You don't even get free wifi! You have to pay extra for that and there was no guarantee it would work if your villa was too far away from reception The whole resort is run down and nowhere near the 4 1/2 star resort it claims to be. It obviously was once, but not anymore. We had a beach front villa for 7 days. The villa was huge but run down. The whole resort needs a full makeover to charge the prices they charge. If it was $300 a night we would have been perfectly happy to overlook the quality issues, but when you pay over $5000 for a week you want luxury and we didnt get it! You walk around the resort and most of the feature ponds are near empty with green stagnant water, the gardens are bare and unattractive, We didn't have hot water in the villa for 2 days, the buffet breakfast is not good, in fact all their buffet meals are terrible. We booked in for the buffet Sunday roast which started at 6pm, we got there at 6:45 and most of the trays were empty, and what was there was cold! The staff don't seem to top up the trays as the night goes on so unless you are there as soon as it starts you are out of luck. Same goes for breakfast! Not good enough! The staff are all lovely though, very nice to deal with, but could be a bit slow in the restaurant and bar. But to be fair, we did have an issue with our booking and the general manager did try to make it right so credit for that. We talked to other guests during the week and they all felt the same as we did, infact we spoke to a couple who stayed there 6 years ago and couldn't believe how badly it deteriorated in that time. Overall we enjoyed our week, but from what we seen on the island there are plenty of other resorts that are way better value for money. Seems like most of the good reviews for this place are from a long time ago when the Crown was at its best. Those days are gone
The Rarotongan Beach Resort & Lagoonarium
3.7/5104 Reviews
This hotel is very cost-effective, especially suitable for traveling with children or families. It is close to the beach on the beach. The location of the restaurant is great. You can watch the sunrise early and the sunset late. Although there are not many types of breakfast, it is perfect for children to eat. Feed fish, the lunch order is good, the price is about $ 15-28, the dinner dinner variety is over $ 18-36, there is a music party after dinner, it is good to have a drink and listen to music; the hotel's snorkeling, kayaking and other equipment They are all provided free of charge. Many children in the hotel have play areas and swimming pools for children. The scenery of the lagoon is also very beautiful, and the clean sea beaches are also very soft. Because they go in the off-season, they are generally cost-effective.
Manuia Beach Resort
4.4/541 Reviews
Overall Manuia Beach Resort is a great place to stay. It's a small adults only place which means there are not lots of people everywhere. Well equipped rooms are all close to the pool and the beach and the outside private shower is a nice touch. Rooms are air conditioned which is a nice feature and useful when you are in the room. The restaurant provides a good range of food and I recommend the $69 three course meal option as great value for money. Staff are friendly and we're always happy to help book excursions etc. The only thing, which is outside their control, is the constant crowing from the Rarotonga Roosters....a common issue all over the island..it seems these roosters have no sense of time as they started at 11pm and went through the entire night....so take some decent earplugs. Don't let the roosters put you off going though, as Manuia Beach Resort is a really relaxing place to have a holiday.
