Great family getaway

A perfect property for everyone to have the own space with the communal area for hanging out located in the middle of the house. We loved the small touch of fresh bread, cheese, juice, milk and eggs after arriving on the late flight into Raro. Thanks Connie and family.

Wonderful location. The house is luxurious with everything one needs and a stunning garden. Connie is a lovely hostess. A minute stroll to the beach. The 'beach hut' is very spacious. A wonderful space to hang out with books and company. There is a shower to wash off after swims. There is a 'snorkel with the turtles' outing that leaves from next door.

Amazing Location!!! Perfect for the whole family

We loved our stay. Seriously couldn’t have picked a better location. We loved the ocean front covered beach hut. The kayaks and stand up paddle boards were perfect for our ocean adventures. The dogs in the island were my favorite part. Sweet and friendly. Thanks Connie

A Hidden Gem

A lovely stay in a stunning location … excellent amenities and perfect for a family of teenagers - everyone got their own space. Located super close to the beach and walking distance to some excellent snorkeling opportunities. The indoor/outdoor living at this property was perfect for us and we enjoyed the beautiful tropical garden. The home was perfectly appointed and there was nothing we needed. Thank you for a memorable and relaxing stay.

Rarotonga bliss

our family love the well appointed home with lovely sheltered garden. Ideal for my 3 year old grand daughter to play in safely and just a short walk across the road to the beach where there is a great beach hut with kayaks and a little kitchen....outdoor tables and chairs. Our family loved the location, the beach, the house....it is our second stay. I can recommend it for families or a group of friends

Home and garden

Six NZers, all repeat visitors to Rarotonga booked this house for a week. It has its own private beach house (w kayaks and chairs and shower), it has a gorgeous garden and views of the peaks and taro fields. It is back off the road so quiet and private. It’s very clean and well provisioned and the 24/7 shop is close by. We received instant help when a door slammed shut in wind gust, from lovely management staff and really enjoyed our stay. Would recommend.

Fabulous property with spectacular gardens

Wow! What a beautiful property. The gardens are absolutely stunning and the location is perfect. The beach hut is a wonderful addition giving this property the best of both worlds. This property would suit families and adults alike. Thank you Connie for allowing our family group to stay in your lovely home. We felt that Connie was available if we needed anything but we appreciated that she allowed us our privacy and space. Also, we absolutely love your dog who we nicknamed “Pete” while we were there. He was a loved extra member of the family We wouldn’t hesitate to stay again Thank you!! Joel and Daya

The cleanest property we have ever stayed at. Each bedroom had its own lock and the layout of the house was fabulous, with the lounge and kitchen in the middle. Was great having two full bathrooms, each with a toilet and shower on both bedroom wings of the house. The gardens were just blissful to sit, sunbathe and read in. The beach hut was a fabulous addition and we spent hours using the kayaks and paddle board. Connie’s thoughtfulness of all the small additions in the house was so appreciated. So many bathroom and beach towels. Great long clothesline and washing machine that took family loads of washing. The location of the house was in the perfect spot for fabulous snorkelling and so close to two big supermarkets and numerous cafes and restaurants. Connie is one of those fabulous hosts that truely loves what she does and it shows in the property and in your dealings with her. She went out of her way to help us with little things like sorting out a gym for our teen to attend, to helping sort a surprise birthday cake for the 13yr old. Can’t wait to come back and will definitely stay here again. 5Star rating for everything. Connie you are fantastic!!!
