Featuring air-conditioned accommodation with a private pool, Abera's Aitutaki Villas is situated in Arutanga. Located on the beachfront, this property has a private beach area, water sports facilities and a garden. Free private parking is available and the villa also provides car hire for guests who want to explore the surrounding area.

We loved that their were only two units that shared a pool. The Beach access was amazing, as was the snorkeling right off the beach. An expanded continental breakfast was hand-delivered, and the cereals, bread, pastries, fruit, meat, and cheese were perfect for snacks, too. The owners lend guests a scooter, which helps for quick trips to town. They also provide airport transportation and can set up excursions. It really is a seamless one-stop shop!

Located in the Ureia Village, Paparei Beachfront Bungalows, Aitutaki offers beach-side accommodation with free airport transfers. Each bungalow offers a kitchenette and a private bathroom.n

Paparei Beachfront Bungalows is 5 minutes' walk from dining options. It is 10 minutes' drive from Aitutaki Airport. Bike hire is available at the property and the area is popular for snorkeling.

The serenity that this property offered was surreal. The bungalow was well-equipped with ample amount of kitchen cutleries, china, and bathroom towels. Every detail for this stay to be exceptionally wonderful was thought of- from having a bin in the toilet to having a dining table inside and outside to loungers in the balcony to my favourite spot where hammocks are installed and many more that you least anticipate of. We could only wish to have the same property and facilities when we moved to Rarotonga. We missed our Aitutaki bungalow so much. Vicky was a wonderful host, making our stay so homey. Trina was excellently responsive during our pre-arrival stage. All in all, this place makes us want to go back to Aitutaki despite its wild west vibe. This is so highly recommended.

Etu Moana Boutique Beach Villas - Adults Only offers relaxing beachside boutique villas on Aitutaki Island. Rustic wood furnishings, stunning ocean views and lovely tropical gardens add to the charm of this secluded property.

Idyllic beachfront location with only 8 large detached chalets. Well equipped. Lovely breakfast provided by the pool. Very relaxed ambiance with so few guests - we were often the only people on the beach. Lagoon is shallow but OK for swimming with plentiful fish. Provision of bicycles, e-scooters and 2 electric golf carts make it easy to get around this small island.

Situated in Arutanga in the Aitutaki region, Tavake Villa has a garden. Located 2.2 km from Aitutaki Beach, the property provides a private beach area and free private parking. The property features free shuttle service, a restaurant with an outdoor dining area.

Tavake is great. Hosts are young, energetic, and wonderfully helpful. They found us what we needed through local connections when we had no idea and forgot to book transport. Pawpaw growing at the door, beautiful sunset from the back porch, great spot close to all the facilities you need, and not far from the flash beach up the road. Their cafe next door was open 7am - 9pm and the food and drinks were great and economical, and there were always locals and visitors to meet there for a coffee and a story.

    The villas are great and well furnished kitchen. We cooked many times. And they provide a lovely breakfast. They arranged everything to/from the airport which was easy. We walked nearby to rent a car and could walk to a couple places to eat (the Boat Shed and Koru cafe are both very good). They also have bikes and kayaks to use.

    Everything! Tasty breakfast, beautiful view straight out to the beach, spent hours in the pool, very well equipped villa and the free scooter is an absolute bonus. I'd come back here to stay anytime, much better than a resort.

    Rooms and breakfasts were very "tropical island" style, which was done well. there was a depression like a "50 meter lap pool" in front of the villas in the lagoon that enabled one to swim whatever the tide. This suited us as would snorkel at Base 1 or near large resorts close to high tide, and swim at any time at Tai Roto. very relaxing eating or reading on the verandah of villa. We mainly self catered.

    Cheran and her mum, were super hosts and managers of the Tai Roto Bay Resort. We were greeted at the airport with big smiles and beautiful personalities. Arriving at our beachfront villa took our breath away at the sight of the lagoon right out front. Welcome to Paradise. Villas was gorgeous, clean and bed super comfy with a yummy breakfast delivered daily and very private. Great local cafes and restaurants within walking distance.

    The location is amazing. The lagoon is very beautiful with many sandbars. The water was calm and perfect for my 5 year old. She enjoyed searching for crabs and playing on the beach. The staff was friendly and made sure we were looked after. Robyn received us at check-in and helped us feel welcomed. She helped with whatever we needed and greeted us by name for the duration of our stay. We really appreciated her friendliness. The villa we stayed in was perfectly adequate and everything we needed.

    We booked the waterfront villa so the view to the sea was amazing. A really comfortable room with a lot of space. There were free bikes that we used to explore the island or go to the mini market and the atm. There were also free kanoes. Amazing place.

    Great location. Their beach is absolutely beautiful and the snorkeling is fantastic. Two minute walk from the villas to the beach. The owners are on another level as far as operating their facility and customer service…..can’t pay them enough compliments.
