Adjust your expectations

This property does not match the pictures and descriptions on the website, but the price is good, so you have to adjust your expectations. We booked it for one night as it was the closest to the airport, but they wanted to charge us 35NZ per person for airport transfer! We declined and got taxi for 20NZ/pp. They also do not have have wifi vodafone hotspon on site, which means you have to buy internet from them at overpiced cost (twice as much as vodafone sim). Ambiance is nice, especially for young people who are there to party, food was average. There is no beach on that side and the pool is super small, water did not look very clean when we arrived at the end of the day. Strongly recommend to visit Tamarind House and Bar, just 10 min walk from the Club Raro, same prices for food but super nice property with excellent food.

Found the staff to be very slow all around the resort. Stayed 4 days and 2 of those days our room wasn’t cleaned despite having our sign hanging. Bathrooms had mould in them and found it to be overpriced for what we got. Pool was warm which wasn’t convenient considering it was so hot. Overall it was ok, however we probably wouldn’t go back.

The room was comfy and clean. The continental breakfast was adequate. The front desk was open 24/7. My wife and I stayed at Club Raro for 2 nights. We had a late night arrival at Rarorotonga and we had an early morning flight Aitutaki 2 days later. There were no walkable dining options other than the hotel restaurant. We had an ocean view room. There is no sandy beach at this hotel. If you plan to stay longer than 2 days, we recommend that you get your own transportation. There are buses but they don't run very often especially on Sundays and holidays. The hotel was a good place to stay for 2 nights.
