Tropical Sands
We can't fault the attention and excellent service Kanoe & Rudy gave us. The room was spotless and very well equipped and the deck was huge which we found a real bonus.

Ocean Escape Resort&Spa
Amazing stay! Great location close to Miri beach but you will probably want to rent a car either way. The staff including Barry and Nick are all outstanding. The onsite spa also great!

The Edgewater Resort & Spa
Nothing wrong with the hotel, room or staff but also not particularly inspiring. Spaghetti House was good for supper. Only stayed one night whilst travelling back to the UK. Much better places on Rarotonga if you’re staying longer.
