Very good location and setting. Staff friendly and helpful. Local bus picks up and drops off at front of resort. WIFI not free which is disappointing as it's an essential service. Only 1 TV channel in room so cable option would be handy as well. Swimming pool temperature was very cold even on warm days so not very useful.

Pros and Cons
Resort is fine and has all the facilities that you need. Staff are mostly very friendly and helpful. Restaurant food is good and reasonably priced. Rooms: Our room (Apartment) was spacious and well equipped. Shower was good. Housekeeping was good. On the down side, there is virtually no soundproofing between rooms and even normal conversations (or snoring) can be heard from neighbouring rooms so no chance of sleeping until they all go to bed. Location: We found that there was always a strong onshore wind on this side of the island (July) compared to the side, and a stoney beach (not sand) which was not as ideal for beach lounging or snorkeling. All in all it was still a nice stay and if you consider the pros and cons and what is important to you, then this is still ok value for money.

we stayed in the self contained garden room, situated at the back of the pool villas, good spot was much quieter than around pool area. room was ok could do with a bit of a update. Funny vibe at this hotel, staff didn't seem very happy and only did the minimum of what is needed. Was a cheaper place to stay on Raro and fine if you wanted to spend most of your time elsewhere around the island. Its beach isn't very good and quite windy. Food very average at best We were overcharged on our card, which we questioned the following week when we returned from Aituutaki, management said it was an error and would refund amount.. 2 mths later haven't seen it.
