Beautiful veiws from the deck, easy to keep an eye on kids. Good Shallow lagoon for the kids to swim in also. Perfect house for carefree holiday. Everythings there including insect screens and dishwasher.

We had an amazing holiday and the house was a key part in making that happen. Often you are never sure whether the photos you see of a place actually represent what you will get, but in this case, you get even more. The house literally is right on the beach and we had several evenings enjoying drinks either on the deck looking out to the sea, or on the beach in front of the house. All the necessaries are available for you, making life so much easier when you travel. We really enjoyed our stay and can honestly say to anyone considering the place that you will have no regrets about staying there.

Only meters to the Beach! The family loved staying at the house, swam every day as the beach is right there. House suitable for a family or adult group if you want to hang out at the beach and be close to your accom. Great value for money being this close to the beach. House is a little dated but was clean and suited our family group. Terry was great to deal with and prompt with communications, the property manager popped in to say hi, no problems with our stay.

Perfect location right on the beach. Relaxing bach. We had fires on the beach most nights. Excellent communication from Terry. Thank you!!

The house was perfect for our needs - the lagoon is quite rocky but there's a little sandy bay right in front of the house that was perfect for cooling off and very safe for our three year olds. Beautiful sunsets and lovely big deck to enjoy them from. Well equipped kitchen with yogurt maker. Great water pressure in the shower. Having a timber lining (like a Lockwood) and very high timber ceilings makes it very hard to maintain and clean those surfaces but the tiles, kitchen, bathroom etc were lovely and clean. The bus system isn't 100% reliable so you need your own transport. Would definitely stay there again if we're lucky enough to return to Rarotonga.

We absolutely loved our stay, communication and instructions from Terry were through and clear, the house is fantastic (a lot like a kiwi 'batch') with beautiful grounds/garden and access straight onto a stunning beach. We had rented a car for our stay and it was great to have transport for getting to snorkeling spots/turtles/waterfall and walks. Tho it is walking distance to nice cafes etc so you could use bikes or busses. The kids adored the chooks, cats and fell in love with a local pup. Such a great stay, thank you Terry!!

Thank you Terry for excellent communication and a great spot to enjoy our family holiday 🤩

We just love staying here - this was our fourth time. Perfect! We'll be back...

Great house! A few quirks - the hot water system broke (probably fixed now) which also meant the water pump ran a lot, but we just turned it off at night - easy work around! Great spot!

Lovely property in a great location. The house has everything you could wish for including the two resident cats Stewie and Leo. A warm welcome from Matariki was a great start to a perfect holiday. We look forward to returning

We are regulars to the Cook Islands and this has become our new favourite place to stay. You can sit on the deck all day and feel you are right on the beach, it couldn’t be closer. The reef is also really close to the shore on this part of the island so the water is very clean and fresh. Lots of local life nearby but also very private spot. The house was super comfortable and had everything you need for a great holiday. Ticks all the boxes plus more.

We always feel at home here. The house has everything we need. The location (and that view from the deck) are as good as it gets in Raro. Very grateful to return again this year...

Great little house with all the necessities to enjoy a quiet holiday. Beware the roosters which start their call very early in the morning. Beautiful outlook onto the water and reef from the large deck, but not the best part of the lagoon to swim in. Good location, half way between Avarua and Muri beach with small shops close by. Great instructions and local information provided by the owner. Overall, a good option for relaxing or being as active as you want.

Another great family vacation. Stewie the cat a welcome bonus to make it feel like home away from home. Thank you Terry & Kimi, see you next time.

We booked this house for a family holiday and it was just perfect for my family of 6. The house had everything we needed and the views, amazing. 30 steps to the beautiful water and most of the time we felt like it was all just for us. The owner Terry was easy to communicate with & very accommodating. Kimi the caretaker was wonderful too, very helpful & there for us if we needed anything. I cant recommend this house enough and if your looking for the perfect place to stay & unwind from the world, this is it. It was our own private sanctuary yet walking distance to resorts & shops & only a quick bus trip or car ride into town. Thank you so much for having us Terry & thank you Kimi for looking after us while we were there. We're already looking forward to our next visit :)

Really enjoyed staying at this lovely property. Right on the beach and had everything we needed. Thanks Terry and Kimi.

Our stay was perfect , house has everything you needed , plenty of space both inside and out. Views and sunsets were amazing - we were lucky to see whales most evenings. Canon fault this place and highly recommend- we will certainly want to stay here again. Already miss Stewie the resident cat and his snuggles.

Fantastic spot for a family holiday. We particularly enjoyed eating the coconuts and fresh pawpaw from the garden and were luckily enough to see whales swimming past outside the reef. The house had everything we needed and was clean, comfortable and within walking distance of a couple of cafes and a dairy. Terry is prompt and easy to communicate with and Kimi the property manager is friendly and ready to help. Hopefully we will make it back to stay again one day.

We had a fabulous time. The house has everything you need. It is right on the beach and very private. Close to supermarket, cafes and beachside restaurants. Can highly recommend it. Felt like a home away from home.

Lovely Kimi most helpful. Good location for town and restaurants

This our second stay at this home. We enjoyed it so much two years ago, we decided to book again. A great location not too far from town and a great place to enjoy the beach and sunsets. The home is nicely maintained and has some recent updates including new windows with screens and dishwasher. The home has a well equipped kitchen, so we were not limited in our gourmet pursuits. The owner responded to inquiries very promptly and provide helpful and useful information on the amenities near the home and use of the home. The housekeeper came to welcome us to the home and provided us with an orientation of the home. We would stay at this home a third time. Kia Orana!
