It was perfectly acceptable but lacking in soul

As pictured- bed a bit too firm for me personally

Staff weren’t very helpful- felt like an Airbnb

Perfect and I wish we could have stayed longer.

I liked that it was a small property with only 11 villas. The price may seem expensive but all the little extras you get when you arrive and during your stay match the price. Staff are so friendly and helpful. Perfect place to relax and enjoy Rarotonga.

The most beautiful property I’ve ever stayed at. Stunning villas right on the beautiful blue water. The staff were extremely helpful and kind. It was very clean and they had really thought of lovely touches to make our stay perfect.

The perfect holiday to relax and unwind.

The Villas were beautifully presented with generous snacks on arrival. The whole team were friendly, helpful and professional. Perfect location with the lagoon providing great swimming. We were given plenty of information regarding the bus and other great places to visit. Our stay was perfect in every way. We look forward to returning.

There was absolutely nothing that we didn't like.

5 Star Experience in the Cook Islands

5 star all the way. Everything is great. Super villa. Very friendly staff. Lovely welcome fridge full of food and drink. Daily Cook Island newspaper. Room cleaners timed their villa clean well, cleaning when you were out even if only for a few moments. The beach was perfect including the large number of free canoe, kayak and SUP. 24x7 bar by the pool (honesty system). Nice and peaceful at night. The location is good , can walk to one bar but as with all of Cook Islands, need transport. Arrival, even at 7am was perfect. Departure transport all arranged . Even a friendly resort cat!

Hard to say there is anything we didn't like.

Amazing spot with great snorkeling just in front of the property with lots of bright fish. Very comfortable well appointed villas - we weren’t at a beach front one but had a lovely view of the beach and sea from where we were. Attentive staff who helped with whatever we needed. Great wee pool with comfy loungers.

relaxing, beautiful, quiet and a slice of paradise!

beautiful! modern rattan style, Mii the staff there was amazing and so helpful. showed us activities to go to and booked our dinners, even took us to the grocery store. so comfy, right on the beautiful beach with clear waters and coral. able to use snorkel gear and a huge range of sizes too for flippers and sand shoes. so relaxing and perfect honeymoon accommodation

the ONLY downside is no food on site. but that was a minor thing as it meant we were able to explore our to get food

Best Luxury Chillout on Raro!

Motu is the best accommodation we have stayed in on Rarotonga. The staff are excellent , the accommodation superb. The welcome breakfast pack is great. Loved the snorkeling, great swimming spot 100m to the right of Motu with no rocks for swimming, lovely beach. 10 minute walk to Little Poly for great meals. Great electric bikes, kayaks and paddleboards. Saw whales breaching. totally relaxing holiday!

Great spot, book a beachfront villa if you can. Excellent staff, very welcoming and helpful. Perfect spot to relax

No food options which is fine - restaurants are around but you will need to walk, bus or taxi.

Exceptional gem right on the beach!

Amy, Claire and Machayla were amazing hosts. It’s their attention to detail and going the extra mile that made us feel special. The property is beachfront, spotless and beautifully maintained. Our villa was modern and tastefully decorated. The arrival pack was gratefully received and very generous.

Perfect little resort on the best beach in Raro

Lucile and Tim were wonderful hotel managers, everything was easy and well organized including a last minute extension of our booking because of storms and cancelled flights. The fridge was very generously stocked with lots of goodies, the bed was so comfortable and loved access to the full kitchen (a great supermarket open 24/7 is just down the road as is Charlie’s beach bar highly recommended). The snorkelling right outside the villas is the best on the island, snorkel and fins are provided and the resort is beautiful. We wanted for nothing (except maybe slightly less rain but let’s blame Mother Nature for that :)

Nothing :)

Lovely villas, with a kitchen, fantastic large bathroom, lounge and dining area. The beach was gorgeous and felt like you had it to yourself. Snorkelling gear was available to use throughout our stay. A nice easy walk to Charlie’s for dinner. Also a nice walk along beach to Muri took about an hour. Short drive to wigmores if you need supplies. Lovely swimming pool. All the staff are so friendly and helpful! We would definately stay again.

Can’t complain about anything. We loved our stay!
