Perfect, private, paradise

We stayed in the Honeymoon Villa and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. If you are wanting to fall asleep on a cloud and not wake up until noon, absolutely suggest requesting the mattress topper. The villa is right next to the pool and spa - perfect for relaxing after a long day going around the island or if you don't want to commit to beaches and sand, perfect on a hot day. The villa also has a giant bathtub which I almost fell asleep in. Absolute heaven. The villa has everything you could need - strong Wifi, smart TV with a DVD/Bluray player and lots of movies in the entertainment cabinet (which I only discovered in my second to last day, don't be like me) bathroom, laundry (washing and drying, even a laundry basket), full kitchen, lounge, dining table, coffee table, fridge, coffee machine, vacuum, and lots and lots of closet and drawer space (enough for two people who brought enough clothes for four). The bed with the canopy is great and has two generous bed side tables with lots of space. The outside area of the villa is also wonderful with deck chairs and an outdoor lounge - however it rained most of the time we were in Rarotonga so we were unable to make full of use of it and the small BBQ. Housekeeping is awesome and we would come home to made beds and fresh towels even if we were out for only an hour or so. The service is top tier. Absolutely recommend a massage from the amazing Nancy - thoroughly enjoyed my scrub and scalp massage with a refreshing nu (coconut) at the end to drink! Big thank you to Sane and her team for looking after us so well during our holiday. We'll definitely be back again.

Nothing per se. I'm a on the big side size wise so the shower and toilet was a bit small for me - but I just need to lose weight by my next visit and it should be all good 😂

Nice and quiet

Very private. Size of room was huge. I think they have double glazing which really helps block out any early morning noise. The staff were so lovely and welcoming

A few things that needed to be maintained. The outside gate to villa 1 was a nightmare to open, the bathroom door handle and toilet roll holder were loose. The rest of the villa was great. I also found it a bit challenging to find the place, as we didn’t have wifi and hadn’t received the email that gave us the directions. Was glad I wasn’t trying to find it in the dark!

Highly recommend. You Will not be disappointed.

Wow were the first words all 7 us said when we opened the door to our apartments. I had a poolside 2 bed apartment. Stunning is an understatement. Very modern, very calming. Our apartment became the poolside hub for evening swims or spa, bbq, chilling on the deck with cocktails. A short walk to Avarua shops, Punanga Nui Market, Trader Jacks.

I had to leave.

Falls short of what's advertised.

Not applicable.

The bed was uncomfortable. The outdoor bathroom was awkward. A few things were falling apart. No tea bags. There was no TV and this was the same for multiple villas.

Very enjoyable Winters Break at Kia Orana Villas

Host Sane was great and helped arrange a late check out as we had a late flight. The room was awesome with full cooking facilities and dishwasher, Washer , Dryer, Big 4 Post Bed, Big Bath and shower room. Swimming pool and 3 x Spa Pools

The only thing I didn't like was the bed was a bit too soft for me and I got a sore back.

Fab place will be back with family next time. Close to everything but secluded. A beautiful place

We were very well supported by Sani & David on our arrival and much appreciated their kindness in getting a rental car on Saturday morning which was the busiest day of the week. Loved the pool and spa baths an extra bonus. Beautiful towels and bed linen. The unit had everything washing machine and drier

Strong home feeling in Rarotonga

The host Sunnie is the best. She prepared the welcome breakfast once I arrived. She also sent me to the airport on the day of my departure. I feel home away from home. All staff in the villas are friendly and caring. I definitely recommend to stay there if you plan to visit Rarotonga.

We enjoyed our stay at Kia Orana Villas and Spa. The staff were great & helpful. Sane & Joe were very friendly & hospitable. When we arrived the weather wasn't the best but it was ok cause it gave us time to relax & booked us a foot massage, hot stone & pedicure for the next day. Thanks Nancy. 😊 Thanks Tevita for helping out with my Husband when he was having issues with connection to the WIFI & Henry with the chair.

The only thing that we found was the floor was slippery especially when it's wet but other than that everything else was great.

Very friendly and professional staff. The propert was clean and tidy. Had everything we needed. Kitchen was immaculately maintained. Swimming pool and Spa were tops as the weather was not great for Swimming and going to the beach. Message service was awesome and great to be able to access it

There was no view or window for the bedroom and seemed dark. Shower outside was a bit slippery and might need a bar to hold on to for safety. Towels were clean but poor quality. The shower in the second room was small and adult children were not confident to use it so they used the main bedroom shower outside. Bath were not used. Overall I think it was worth the dollars and will definitely go back there

This was a Home away from Home; I felt extremely comfortable.

Friendliness of the host and staff on site. The accommodation was peaceful and perfectly equipped. Sane - the Host - was very helpful when an emergent situation arose. Quick to assist! I went with my elderly grandparents, and they loved it! The pool and hot tubs were also very nice! Parking was easy and there were many options open to the guests! The location is perfect as it is out of the hustle and bustle of the city centre but is also close enough if you were to walk/cycle. We had a car however I cycled and walked most places! There is an amazing assortment of DVDs at reception, so ensure to have a look and enjoy! Air conditioning is available and worked perfectly! 10/10 stay! I recommend Kia Orana Villas and Spa to travellers looking for great accommodation for an affordable price! It really does have everything you need.

Absolutely wonderful, we will be recommending Kia Orana Villas to our friends.

We loved the comfy bed, coffee machine and the aesthetic of the whole place. Sunny and her team are super lovely and professional as well as helpful. We enjoyed our conversations with them and other guests at breakfast. It was nice to be away from the main hustle and bustle and nestled on the back street amongst the green! We had a hire car so getting around was easy.

We came during the holiday period so at times we didn’t get the included breakfast as it was a public holiday/Sunday. No matter, it was something we overlooked when booking and we had plenty of fruit around to fill us up.

Kia Orana Villas is a hidden gem for Rarotonga Accommodation ! Beats Resorts and Hotels!

Amazing Location, the facilities were better in person than in photos, everything was clean, and this facility had everything we needed as a family of 4. The swimming pool was great for those hot days and yes we even tried the Spa (hot tubs). Breakfast in the morning was great - exactly what we needed before heading out on a big day. The staff made us feel welcome every time they saw us. Highly recommend WIFI at Kia Orana Villas as staying on Mobile on Raro is very average. if the staff offer you thermal bottles for drinking water (free offering - we didn't have to pay) - take it! keeps your water refreshing and cold throughout the day! that really helped us when out and about.

It rained a bit in Raro - but because the facilities are so good - we had no complaints from my daughters (aged 16 and 20).

An absolutely relaxing, fantastic and well needed break. We will be definitely go back.

The complex was well maintained (thanks to Joe & his team) and our Villa (Villa 10) was immaculate. Sane is a fantastic & welcoming host, and Lai is superb in the Café, baking exceedingly naughty, but lovely pancakes & doughnuts. The Housekeeping team were fantastic, sorry chaps, shame on me, but I can’t remember your names. The Owners are very lucky to have this team on board. These guys are what makes the place tick as smoothly as it does. We had made a bit of a whoopsie with our dates (forgetting that Rarotonga is a day behind us), however on emailing Sane, it was sorted out easily. Our villa was spacious and airy, thankfully it had both aircon & two ceiling fans so it was very pleasant in the room. The villa had a fully equipped kitchen and we had no problem in catering for ourselves when we wanted to or on a Sunday when almost everything is closed. Apart from at breakfast we were hardly aware of the other residents. Everyone was well behaved with no raucous parties late at night. We are not great beach people, so Kia Ōrāna Villas was ideal for us, but it does have a great pool and spa baths. It is nearer the main town than the resorts around Muri Beach, the villa is an easy 15-20 minute walk to town and there is plenty of parking for cars / mopeds. Despite what Booking.com says, they don’t have airport transfer, but there are plenty of taxis available at the airport ($15 per person to anywhere on the island). We went into lockdown and the Cook Islands closed the travel bubble the night that we arrived back home, however, we would have been more than happy to stay at the Villas until the bubble reopened. We rarely use an accommodation more than once, but Kia Ōrāna Villas will be top of our list for our next visit. Thanks Chaps for a wonderful holiday.

There wasn't anything that we didn't like about any aspect of our stay.

Exceptional Stay,

The owners are very lucky to have such excellent staff. It makes the business what it is and sets it apart from other places. Sane, Lai, Joe and the rest of team are so welcoming, nothing is a problem. Exceptional service Lai does our breakfasts and every morning gives us new delicious morsels to eat. I can't wait to see what he has created. That is why Kia Orana Villas is a standout.
