Top choice in Rarotonga


Many of Rarotonga’s boutique hotels look to this place as a benchmark. The impeccably appointed free-standing thatched villas have fabulously appointed interiors with luxury king-size four-poster beds, entertainment systems, flat-screen TVs and private outdoor pools. The open-plan villas are finished in earthy tones and traditional materials, offsetting the contemporary design elements.
