The place is perfect for exploring the local culture. It’s close to the museum, library, church, and there are several restaurants nearby, as well as the Saturday market. You don’t need a car because the bus stop is just a few minutes away. The best part, of course, was the amazing staff who truly cared about me during my stay and pick me up from the airport and a different accommodation. I stayed twice at this small hotel. The pool is great, and breakfast at The Trout was fantastic. If you are picky with cleaning, this is your place 😉

It’s beautiful there, off the main road so nice and quiet. The house is huge and it was nice and cool there too. Host is so friendly if you have a family to accommodate I’d suggest going there.

Property was new. We were the 1st to stay at the property. Bonus was the pool. Felt like we were living in a hotel. Recommend this villa to anyone travelling to Raro. Host was always there when we needed things. Would go back there when we visit Raro.

Where to start?! Right from the very first communication with Liana we felt like this was going to be an exceptional holiday and wow, it sure was!! Liana was simply outstanding in everything she did for us before we arrived and during our stay. She arranged to have our bags delivered to the villa and met us when we arrived there. We got a personal tour of the villa and everything was explained so clearly to us. The cleaning staff were amazing and the property was in superb condition. The pool was just gorgeous and the perfect size to swim in, laze in and play in. The location was brilliant. It literally was less than a 5 minute walk to the beach, the night market, the bus (you really will enjoy taking a ride at least once around the island!), scooter/car hire companies, a 24hr mini supermarket, and so many wonderful food outlets to choose from. We would definitely stay there again and it's a reason to want to go back.

    The location was great. Was a short distance to the Edgewater where family were also staying so worked out great. We hired a car luckily and would suggest hiring a car if you were to stay in the Villa as it is a distance to the activities and restaurants. The morning Fresh fruit platters and Coconut water was a highlight for sure ! Waking up to that each morning was awesome! The pool was a hit ! Such a spacious and inviting home with so many features, especially the deck out the front with built in speakers !

    Such a nice place on Rarotonga, I couldn’t have picked a nicer place. Very clean and new studio, Sharnyta did everything so to make me feel very comfy. I had the best local experience on Rarotonga, a very nice local dinner at Sharnyta‘s place and I would definitely stay again at her place!

    Absolutely wonderful accommodation and hosts. I do not even know where to start as we didn't just like everything about our stay, we loved it. I can not highly recommend enough. Beautiful location and accommodation, the most amazing hosts, we have ever had the pleasure of meeting. We can not thank you enough, Jodie and Bruce, for going above and beyond in every aspect of our visit/stay. We can not wait to come back again.
