Guest reviews for Aroa Beachside Resort
"Great value and wonderful snorkeling beachfront; good food at the bar"
"Aucun."
"Very friendly staff Al, Lisa and their staff made us feel at home from the time we arrived till we departed by taking care of all our requests. Location and views were great and live music at the restaurant at night was enjoyable. We stayed at three places on the island and this was the best"
"Aucun."
"It has all the ingredients for a relaxing holiday. I loved swimming in the lagoon and enjoyed the music at night. Anna was great at arranging my transportation."
"Although the suite description on Booking.com said that my studio had an ocean view, that would only be true if a cyclone flattened all of the trees and shrubs down to the ground. “Garden view” would be a more accurate description."
"Beautiful location with the most lovely and friendly staff. Everything was great, the room was great, the best margaritas and the food was great too. The staff went above and beyond to help out and we can't wait to come back and stay here again. Such good vibes we loved it!!"

"This place is like a family. Everyone is very welcoming from the owner and manager to all of the staff. The beach is amazing. The shipwreck bar has good food and drinks. We had a great time. They built a pool while we were there which was a great little bonus. Will come back for sure."

Guest reviews
"Incredible location near the beach and close to the shop. Beautiful large garden and extremely well equipped kitchen. And we loved the cat and the dogs and chickens in the garden. Lots of towels were a real luxury. Lovely comfy beds 😀 and very handy having the top loading washing machine. It felt like a home rather than just a holiday place and was much bigger than we expected from the photos and description on Booking.com"
Hilary Ariki Dream Villa
"We loved the privacy of the villa. It was a great size for our family of five. The hosts were super friendly and helpful. The kitchen had everything you needed. We highly recommend it. The pool was great too."
Amie Island Time Villas
"Amy's place was the perfect tropical home away from home! And the price is a steal compared to the hotels and resorts around the island. When I return from a day of exploring, I want peace and solitude with my family which is exactly what we found here. We'll definitely be back!"
Kathleen Are Ara - House of Pineapple
"Excellent location. Fantastic Lodge and HUGE! We had a couple of issues with water filter but this was soon seen to by Brendon. Thank you Muri Lodge....we LOVED our stay in Rarotonga and all promising to return!"
Yvonne Muri Lagoon Lodge
"I don’t even have the words to explain how amazing everything was at this place. They were incredibly helpful from the very beginning, assisting with everything. They took me into town and to the airport, and constantly checked in to see if I needed anything. The views are stunning, and the facilities are more than enough. The kitchen has everything you could need as well. Thank you so much for the unforgettable time."
