This place was amazing. We stayed in beach front cottages only steps from the crystal clear water. It was like having your own private beach. The staff were amazing & knew everyone's name. The food at the restaurant was very good & cheap, so that we didn't really have to dine anywhere else. I will definately come back.

A beautiful spot to stay with the beach on your doorstep. We stayed in the beach bungalows with a stunning ocean view, private deck and the beach on our doorstep. Snorkelling was wonderful and the turtle snorkelling tour is 5mins walk. The staff are super friendly, greet you by name and go out of their way to assist you, which only adds to the experience. The rooms are clean, tidy and well maintained. The beach is stunning and this are of coast is a beautiful spot to stay with safe swimming/snorkelling on your doorstep. There is a welcoming pool also and the gardens, grounds etc are kept immaculate. The restaurant ha beautiful food and the complimentary breakfast was also a great start each morning. Will definitely be back!

Beachfront villa was an absolutely superb location to stay in Raratonga. 100% recommend. The private beach and lagoon snorkeling was the best I've every experienced (turtles, octopus, eel and a huge variety of fish!). With kayaks and snorkels you can use free, it made this accessible and easy to enjoy. Staff were lovely, they helped us book activities and serviced the room regularly. Great breakfast buffet, shared book library and laundry facilities. Their Yellow hibiscus restaurant was yum and well priced for lunch and dinner; and located a short walk to Wigmores (supermarket) and adjoining food venue provided essentials and variety to allow us to make home meals and try some local kai. Would be great for couples or families who want special but more affordable options in Raro.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Palm Grove in February. We stayed in one of the pool side garden suites which was very comfortable. Loved being close to the pool and surrounded by the beautiful landscaping. The property does have beachfront cabins but the garden side cabins are cheaper and it only takes a couple of minutes to walk across the road to the private beach. When a cyclone was forecast the beachfront cabins were boarded up for a few days so we were happy to be across the road away from the brunt of the storm. The beach is one of the nicest we found on Raro, in my opinion nicer than the very busy Muri Beach. Kayaks and snorkeling gear are available for guests to use. A light breakfast is served to guests every morning in the restaurant on the property. Cabins have kitchens but we ended up eating out more than usual as the restaurant and takeout food food was consistently good and affordable. We ate dinner at the Yellow Hibiscus restaurant several times and the food was delicious. Five minute walk to grocery store with cheap takeout food, coffee shop with free wifi, a nice beachfront restaurant Vaiana's, and a delicious takeout pizza place Fridays and Saturdays. Highly recommended.

Great location on the island with a beautiful coral reef right outside. Stayed in beachfront bungalow, which I highly recommend. Some of the other resorts along lagoon are nice, but no coral, all waist deep sand. Breakfast of fruit, bread, and cereal was fine. Bus stops right outside resort and major grocery store is a 5 minute walk.

We stayed at the Palm Grove at the end of our trip in a beach front bungalow. Wished we stayed here the duration of our stay. Our bungalow had absolutely everything we needed. The room was huge and we had a beautiful deck area which led you down to the beach. Great place to snorkel and laze around! Breakfast was also included. Nice having fresh fruit etc. Would definitely stay here again!

We spent 6 nights in a Garden bungalow facing the pool. Unfortunately as a family of 3 adults we couldn't book a seafront unit, but we found our accomodation lovely, clean and spacious enough and just few steps across the road you are on the beach...and what a beach! Something to die for! Breakfast is good and with wide choice (banana bread my favourite item). The Yellow Hibiscus Restaurant offers a good option for lunch and dinner onsite. Superstore 5 minutes walk, Vaima Restaurant 10 minutes walk (via main road or via beach with low tide). Bus stop in front of the hotel. We used free Sunday church shuttle. Friday night happy hour is a must: FREE drinks, live music, happy people...touching! Sunday BBQ is nice too: good grilled meat or fish, live music, happy people...touching again! Well educated roosters and cats all around. Last but not least: Palm Grove staff....simply AMAZING! Special notice to Kitty, thank you Kitty for your kindness! We hope to come back to Rarotonga soon and our happy place will be Palm Grove Resort Carlo, Roberta e Giacomo

Just returned from another stay at Palm Grove and we will be back again in the future! Can’t beat this place for the value and location! Spend the few extra bucks and upgrade to the beachfront studios, they are fantastic! Staff is always friendly and the free tropical breakfast is great! Thank you SO much for another wonderful stay at Palm Grove!
