It was clean, comfortable and we felt at home

Dor was a lovely host who made sure we were comfortable and settled in. Went above to make sure we were set up with our basics and fresh fruit/water. The Villa has everything you need for a short or long stay. Super clean and comfortable, we felt right at home. We loved lounging by the pool outside or inside with the aircon if it was too hot. Great location close to town and Muri! 10/10 would stay again

Easy Breezy

Our stay at Villa 1 was exceptional, super comfortable, private, clean and great location in between the township and muri. All the amenities of the home was great, I would highly recommend Te Etu Villa to a small family and or group. Crisp sheets, HUGE bathroom, aircon and fan which we fully appreciate and a great pool to cool off. Our stay has been so good we have moved into Villa 2.

Dogs are super friendly so best to keep the gate closed. No negative feedback, fantastic experience

This place had such a lovely homely feeling to the place we felt at home and very comfortable

This was one of the best experiences for our first time in raro and we had the best accomodation it was so clean so spacious and had such a lovely homely feeling to the place , I love how it has its own privacy for the pool area and a big parking space , I also like how big the bathroom area is and love that we weren’t far from the shops or the town area

Absolutely loved our stay at Te Etu Villa 1. Highly recommend staying here.

We stayed here in April 2023. Dor (the host) is exceptional! We got greeted at the airport with flowers (locally called as 'ei) with Dor's beautiful smile and happy vibe. We felt like we knew her since forever, she was so warm and welcoming. She helped us find our rental car and took some of our luggage that would no longer fit (in the boot). The drive to the villa is short. The views when you leave the main road are amazing - so lush and green all the way to the villa. The villa is as what we expected - absolutely loved the pool! Since the villa is off the main road, it is really quiet at all times. To say that we loved our stay at Te Etu villa would be an understatement. It really added to the whole amazing Cook Island experience. We will definitely be back!

Nothing at all.

Sensational Stay @ Te Etu Villas

Dor is amazing she greeted my family and I at the Raro Airport with beautiful Tiare Maori Lei Necklaces. We got the "Kia Orana" Welcome to beautiful Rarotonga vibes with her beautiful smile 😊 Upon booking accomodation Dor was informative, professional and forever communicated effectively & efficiently. Top service and highly recommend any couple, friends or families to stay at Te Etu Villas. Immaculate home inside and out, very comfortable, relaxing, peaceful and private. All what we required. Added comforts for convenience, air-conditioning, WiFi and the pool. Super Superb!! Our family experience at Te Etu Villas was sensational. We will definitely book & stay at Te Etu Villas again. Thank you for the most outstanding service ++++++A Absolutely loved our stay @ Te Etu Villas 😊😊😊😊😊

Hidden Gem Piece of Paradise!

This place is amazing inside & out! Hidden gem on the island I say! Very homely & accomadating fitted with everything you will ever need well on holiday. I love the book shelf & board games provided, the rain ponchos if required Dor has everything sorted. Home is very clean, well looked after & lovely open plan layout onto the deck, roof fans & aircon so you dont need to worry about the heat. Dor was soooo amazing & made us feel at home making sure we had everything we needed. If your looking for a quiet spot on the island away from the rush then this is the place for you. There is nothing to not like about this place! The outdoor area deck / pool is well set out with furniture to relax, overlooking the pool and plantation, spent most of our time there. Your own private pool is a super bonus! Thank you Dor & family for letting us enjoy your piece of paradise. Good things always come to an end, we were sad to leave but look forward to returning Te Etu Villa is top pick for us!! Highly recommend to others who are looking into booking, Dor will make sure you are well looked after & nothing is to much of an ask. Appreciate you Dor 😊 thank you!! thankk you!! thank youuu!! x

there is nothing not to like apart from leaving lol.

HOST & VILLA Next level amazing

Absolutely everything we combined with our family next door which the gate opens up so you can enjoy the company of all the family, if you didn't want 2 you 😂 you can also close the gate. We had a couple of home cooked dinners and lunches and both villas offered so much utensils and appliances e.g blender, slow cooker,stove tops,BBQ,big fridge with freezer on top great for storing your big bag of ice in and 2ltre ice cream.This is my 5th time on the island and have stayed somewhere different all the time but these villas were top notch and the host was so accommodating and super nice and instantly made us all feel welcomed from the airport when she meet us there on arrival to take us to our villas. Air con amazing in all rooms and washing machine was easy to operate also had washing powder already there with a hand sewing kit and a first aid kit just in case. So much more than the pictures.Cant wait to bring more family n friends here this host and villas truly made our trlp unforgettable thank you again Doris

Our whanau had an amazing stay at Etu Villas, fabulous host, perfect location, beautiful home.

Etu Villas is situated in a perfect location, a short drive to Avarua and a 20min drive to muri beach/markets. Etu Villas is emaculate, aircon in both rooms, large bathroom and the added luxury of the pool kept our whanau happy and entertained. Great depth for adults and kids to enjoy, younger children will need a floaty. It is also good to know there are two houses next door to each other which will be perfect to accommodate for a larger group or families. Dor is also a fantastic host who accommodated our whanau for an early check in and a late check out. Really appreciated this as with children it made our experience and stay that much more enjoyable and relaxing. Our whanau felt comfortable to enjoy the luxuries of this villa and thats a big thanks to Dor. We would love to stay again.

Totally fantastic!

I wish I could give Te Etu Villa (1) a higher rating! The Villa exceeded our expectations, it was extremely clean, spacious, perfect for kids and in a great location. Dor and her family were SO accommodating, friendly and all round fantastic people. The communication with Dor was easy and stress free, she even greeted us at the airport and waited while we sorted the wifi and rental car. We were able to cook/BBQ if we wanted too, do washing and of course swim which is very important with children!The pool was a good depth for our children (8 & 11). We can’t wait to stay again! Thank you Dor and Halatoa for giving us a space which we could unwind and relax in, we will see you again in the near future! From the Munro/Soper family, Dunedin NZ

It was a home away from home. Kids are already asking when are going back to Rarotonga.

Dor was an excellent host. She was very generous and accommodating and made us feel at home. The place is fantastic. The pool is great. The kids were never bored (they had lots of books). They had answers for our questions.

Love the cleanliness, Dor was amazing with communication/accommodating us. Amazing pool.

Would recommend having a hire car/bike as it's a bit out the way. We had a car so it was no problem but definitely needed.

An awesome stay with a host that really cares about her clients!

Forget about booking into a resort-the Te Etu Villa experience is a must! Dor is an amazing host and we felt like we were being treated as royalty from the time she met us to show us around the villa. The villa itself is very clean and with the decent size pool, complimentary bikes and very comfortable living area what more could you want? We decided to avoid the lockdown in NZ and book Te Etu and we were so glad that we did. Thank you Dor. We'll be back!

From the moment we were met at the airport by Dori (the host) we were made to feel welcome and relaxed. The property is a short drive from the airport and set in a quiet location yet still close and accessible to local amenities. Dori couldn't do enough for us and made our stay memorable. The villa is immaculate and has everything you need. We all loved the pool which was bigger than we expected and the bikes were an added bonus. We would highly recommend this property and would definitely stay again.
