Great staff and awesome accommodation and bar/restaurant. Couldn't be more helpful to ensure we enjoyed our holiday and loved the pool and being so close to the lagoon. Stayed for 6 days and found it a great spot to enjoy all that Rarotonga has to offer

Accommodation is right on a beautiful white sandy beach away from the crowds. I felt it had a more personalized feel than the big noisy resorts which was nice. The snorkeling was mind-blowing and all so close to the resort. The water's edge literally 40 feet from our balcony. The lagoon is safe even for novice snorkelers with the most amazing array of tropical fish which are almost close enough to touch. I saw well over 30 species of fish plus a turtle, octopus and an eagle ray. July to October is when the whales pass through. We watched the humpbacks from the restaurant and photographed them breaching, a sight I will never forget. Our accommodation was clean and comfortable with air con and everything you need. The staff are all friendly and helpful and always willing to help out. Nothing was too much trouble and always done with a smile. The Shipwreck bar and restaurant had great food and excellent pina coladas :) We planned on dining at a different restaurant every night but ended up having almost all our meals onsite as the food was really good, reasonably priced and it was just a great place to hang out. I loved the music which was just the right laidback vibe. The complimentary breakfast was good and had gluten free options available. I can't wait to go back!

We recently stayed at the A’roa Beachside Inn and would definitely stay here again. The location is amazing as you can walk straight into the lagoon for great snorkling or laze by the pool. The manager Lisa is amazing at running the place. The owner, Al, was went out of his way to assist us. Overall all the staff are terrific! Our room was as per the listing and it was comfortable and provided all that we needed. The Shipwreck Bar serves yummy food and great cocktails and is popular with those staying at the inn and also with visitors. There is live music most nights but you don’t need to worry as it doesn’t go too late.

We enjoyed 4 nights in a clean, well appointed, beachfront, self-contained room. Having the Shipwreck Bar on-site gave this place character and a good place for the sunset, meals and nightly entertainment. We loved the live music at the Bar, which always finished at 8-8.30pm. The owner has two beautiful friendly dogs, who make friends easily with guests and Bar visitors too. We saw some reviews about children at the resort - while it is an adult only resort, some outside restaurant patrons bring their children for dinner, which is fine - they don't stay overnight and the few that were there were never a problem. The owners, his sister and all the staff always provided excellent, friendly and responsive service. The resort provided kayaks and we enjoyed using these. We would definitely come back again next time we are in Raro.

The resort was very clean and tidy, the staff were very friendly and helpful. The manager, Lisa, went out of her way to exceed by far our expectations. The food in the Shipwreck Hut was excellent. Our room was brilliant with fantastic views of the ocean and a great added attraction was the whakes that came past and breached right in front of the resort. I would go back there in a heartbeat. A great experience.

A perfect place for a perfect holiday 👌 😍. Hospitality has been so amazing. The staff are very friendly. Feels like home. Lovely location. Beach front. Shipwreck restaurant literally within the resort. What more can you ask for? We stayed here twice on both visits to Rarotonga. On our return from Aitutaki, Lisa organised airport transfers for us. We arrived Rarotonga on a Sunday and wanted to go to Muri night market. Lisa kindly lent us her car and literally said "go have fun girls". We were shocked. The kindness is outstanding. I 💯 recommend this place. We'll be back!!!. From the sisters in villa 8/9 🥰

This was the perfect place for a wonderful eleven night stay. Everything you need is right here. Great location right on the beach (lovely sunsets). The accommodation has really good sized rooms; a new pool and the Shipwreck Hut bar where you get good meals and live music in the evenings. The bus stops right outside so easy to get around the island. Also just a short walk to the general store for supplies, so everything is very handy. The staff are very welcoming and friendly and the great service was consistent throughout our stay. Lisa the manager went out of her way to ensure our stay was stress free and comfortable, going above and beyond our expectations. She is a real gem. Many thanks to the whole team. Denise and Rob
