Boasting pool views, Atupa Suites provides accommodation with balcony, around 1.6 km from Nikao Beach. There is a private entrance at the apartment for the convenience of those who stay. The apartment features rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. We absolutely loved the private and homelike feel. Tucked away on the back road but super close to all that we needed. Last minute, we requested an extra night’s stay and the staff were so accomodating and helpful in making this happen. Staff were fast to respond and made us feel incredibly welcome. We will be booking Atupa Suites on our next Rarotonga stay.

Set in Rarotonga with Aroa Beach nearby, Aroa Kainga Bungalows and Apartment offers accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking.

The lodge provides guests with a patio, garden views, a seating area, a flat-screen TV, a fully equipped kitchen with a fridge and a microwave, and a private bathroom with shower and a hairdryer. A stovetop and toaster are also offered, as well as a kettle. Nev & Deb made us feel really welcome. The huge deck made it easy to enjoy our holiday even with the range of weather we experienced. Loved the opportunity to catch up on some old favourites on TV at night - especially the IT Crowd. The bed was really comfortable and having breakfast & some grocery essentials in the fridge was a god send after an overnight flight.

The Cooks Oasis is an apartment set in the Arorangi district of Rarotonga. The property features pool and garden views, and is a few steps from Black Rock Beach. There is a picnic area and guests can make use of free WiFi, free private parking and an electric vehicle charging station. The Cooks Oasis has hospitality down to a T. From the warm welcome, to a comfortable suite with a good bed and attractive decor, the generous fruit basket and flowers, to the thoughtful accommodation of my travel arrangements: it all added up to a great stay. Of the three places I stayed while visiting the Cook Islands, this was my favourite.
