The good part is the property was clean and the areas around and the pool was handy. The service people were very helpful and friendly. The owner does not live onsite but there are cameras everywhere outside. We spent 3 wks there. My biggest complaint is the beds were hard as. 3wks is a long time to sleep on a hard bed. The double bed couch is NOT suitable for 2 adults. I would honestly say that is for 1 adult or 2 children. However that couch bed is also hard and you could feel the springs. We did communicate this but the solution we got was not suitable either. Also just a tip it would be great if you could explain to your customers that they need to book an extra night if they are arriving at 1.35am on jetstar. Yes its on the website but in the excitement of going on holiday it could be missed. This is basic customer service, its called looking after the customer. If i could have got my money back i would have moved. To be honest we will never stay there again.

Accomodation woukd leave you to it, offering help or services every other day to check in, but overall were simply very relaxed and left us to our lovely getaway.

I stayed in unit no. 7 which was located away from the other apartments and should not have been rented. It had the electrical box for all the apartments so was often getting a knock on the door to check the box. I had to remove worms from the room, and it wasn't as advertised. The other rooms looked ok so I'm saying don't rent no. 7. Very disappointing as I had booked 3 weeks there.

Communication by host really poor . Did not realise there was no onsite manager. We’re there in middle of flooding and tropical storm and they were more concerned about a park bench that floated away than communicating with their guests on safety and finding out how we were . No one to meet us on arrival and we were left to find our room which had the wrong name on the board outside. They arrived half an hour after we got there then gave us a key that wouldn’t fit the look. By this time our luggage was in our room and we were locked out. Told the host who was onsite at the time and she drove off to go to their other accommodation and forgot about us so we were left locked out of our room for half an hour then had to ring and remind her we will still waiting to get in. Place is on the market and they were more focused on trying to sell the property to guests than making sure guests we were comfortable and looked after. They came and went at different times and seemed disinterested. The only time I hopped in the the rusty para pool for a swim the owner stopped by to clean it . Started cleaning it while I was in there and didn’t even bother to ask if it was ok so I ended up having to hop out. We had an aircon unit in our room which we werent told about usage of. If we wanted to use it had to pay $15 a day for the facility. We were only told this by another guest as there was nothing on the property information about this. I would definitely not recommend this property.

Quiet, secluded and only a short step down a leafy pathway to the ocean. Beautiful. Nice pool if just want to lie in the sun. Charming, helpful hosts. Would we return to Coral Sands? You bet we will. Xx

Great proximity & access to beach. Appreciated the chilled water, fruit juice & fresh bread to start us off. Easy bus round island. Our unit was pretty old & tired & could have done with a good overall clean. Comfy bed.

Beachfront location. Toilet seat needed attention, a pack of Tissues would have been helpful

Lovely quiet clean property just off the beach. Nice surprise to have a few extra goodies waiting in the fridge. Helpful staff and proprietors.

This place had everything we wanted and more. It was clean and spacious. Had a nice pool, Brent was knowledgeable and helpful, and the breakfast supplies for the first morning were a great touch

What we liked was the privacy to be left alone to do our own thing. It's not a large place but was very comfortable for 2 of us. Brent and Eve were contactable by phone and they responded immediately to what we needed. In our case it was a blown kitchen light bulb. There is no daily cleaning, but we did this ourselves without any concern. We never went swimming as I felt the pool was not that large and was mostly used by families with children. Plenty of ocean to swim in though. Roosters were annoying and our room was on the main road so very noisy due to traffic. Just shows how busy Rarotonga is. There is no restaurant or bar at this place but there is a kitchenette if you don't wish to eat out. We preffered eating out as it gave us a chance to see and review different places each day. Overall loved and enjoyed our stay.

A pleasant, clean, comfortable apartment. Absolutely fit for purpose, and we would be happy to stay there again.

I'm so glad we stayed at the Coral Sands! It's spacious - living room with kitchen and eating table, and a nice size bedroom as well as nice size bathroom. One of us slept on the fold out sofa in the living room (none of those fold outs are really comfortable, and this one was no worse than others). The furnishings are pleasant and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed for the first morning. We really also appreciated that the water was filtered, so we did not have to buy drinking water. The fridge even had a container of the water, so there was always cold water on hand. Another great touch was the local cell phone and phone charger. That way we had a local phone, and didn't have to get SIM cards. This was a group trip, and two of our group stayed in two different hotels not far away. We saw their rooms and they were clean and pleasant, but awfully cramped. You really didn't feel like being in the room for a bit of rest from the heat, or just hanging out a bit before going off to dinner. There's no question that we will go back to the Coral Sands next time on Rarotonga.

Good value. Clean pool and adequate kitchen. Owners adressed all problems promptly. No view of the ocean though it is close. Quite a lot of traffic noise

We have just returned from 9 nights at Coral Sands. FIve adults staying in a 3 bedroom apartment. We all absolutley loved staying here, a great alternative to a busy resort. Fabulous location very close to the beach, great pool. We had a very laid back and relaxing holiday. Coral Sands was perfect. Thanks Eve and Brent.

Coral Sands was a perfect home away from home. Our hosts were friendly and helpful, there were kayaks and snorkel gear, laundry, books and movies to borrow. Great little kitchen, comfy bed. Amazing pool. Can't wait to go back!

Just 2 min from beach on private path. Our one bedroom unit was spacious and clean when we arrived. All 4 one bedroom units have a covered patio that has shade all day. The pool is cleaned daily. It had a hideabed couch. Units have 2 burner gas stove top, 1100 watt microwave and under counter fridge. The office is not staffed, but help is just minutes away by calling. The managers come by twice daily to check out the site and see to any guest's needs. Most days a grounds keeper and a house keeper are on site for most of the day. There is daily towel exchange and linens can be exchanged on request. Brent and Eve were friendly and guest focused.
