Independent in Southern Cook Islands from NZ$246

"A lovely quiet resort on the lagoon. Pool is away from the beach which makes it perfect when the wind is up in the lagoon. Small pool, quiet resort. Good for small families with older, quiet kids and/or couples. No restaurant but options nearby. Bar is open weather permitting. Staff friendly and very helpful. Our flight was cancelled and they gave us a late check out and helped us to find alternate accomodation as the Island was almost full."

"Wonderful staff. Great beach at the front. Restaurant food portion is too big and we all gained weight. Perfect place in paradise. "

"Lovely place with super-friendly staff. Comfy room with mini kitchen and self-catered breakfast provided. Are at restuarant most nights. Great snorkelling at high tide/rock pooling at low. Fab sunsets. Very quiet but we loved that."

"Friendly staff good amenities "

"Everything was right there in the resort beach , snorkeling, restaurant, They had kayaks,paddle boards , snorkeling gear. Lots of activities for all ages. One thing I wish they had was a kitchen area in rooms. Other wise had a amazing time.."

"Great low key relaxed location - on the beach, tidy facilities and all the things you need for a self contained stay. Definitely go back"

"We really enjoyed our 3 night stay at the Pacific Resort Rarotonga. It is in a great location on the beach and the rooms are spacious with large bathrooms. All staff were incredibly friendly. We ate dinner at Sandals every night and enjoyed the food. We would definitely stay here again. "

"Excellent for what we needed."

"Highlight recommend this little hidden jewel. Amazing big spacious comfortable room. Great pool and garden areas. Super friendly hosts. Just opposite the prettiest view and water "
