    It's not what we didnt like but the bungalow we used was a little run down and tired. A few things do need attention but understandable with the location and the economy that replacing things are hard on small businesses in small countries. We were told when we left that slowly they are being done up so we will definitely go again.

    The location was superb. The bungalows are super cute and the staff were fantastic. The view from the deck is just stunning.

    Location is awesome. Tropical breakfasts were more than adequate. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Air conditioning and fans in the rooms were helpful to take the edge off the tropical heat when it climbed.

    The bar and restaurant were great, but only open 2 days a week. This wasn’t clear on the website. If it had been open every night then we would have eaten there every night.

    Right on the beach, bungalows were tidy, and had air conditioning, and the beds were comfortable

    The location is amazing - right on the beach with a perfect view of the lagoon. But it is important to note that Paradise Cove is still recovering from COVID, and the owners are slowly renovating each bungalow. So don't expect too much. We arrived late at night and had no air con nor a fan that worked. Thankfully management had a spare bungalow that had recently been upgraded and we were able to move. If I had to rate our stay based on the first night, it would have been low; but in the renovated bungalow, it was a definite 10. In both bungalows, our bed was large and super comfy and the linen was clean and good quality. And the staff, especially the manager were very helpful.

    If you are the person who likes to have everything at your finger tips whilst on holiday - transport, endless staff, restaurants, no need to leave yiur accomodation - then this place is not for you. If you struggle to “put your phone down & have no technology” this is not for you. we love going out to explore so we loved this place. We loved the simplicitt, authenticity & the basic set up of this accomodation .

    We loved how simple & down to earth this accomodation was. It was in a good location to access all areas of the Aitutaki! It offered an authentic stay - with no TV & the beach at your door steps. It was everything we needed & it what is expected for the price range. The staff were amazing, werent at all in your face & we were given the freedom to do what we wanted, whenever. The breakfast is great - love the local fruit !

    the coral reef in front of the lodge is totally dead :/ and the breakfast could have more food

    the bungalow is just in front of the beach and very clean and comfortable. is quite roots, but like any place in the island. on Wednesdays and saturdays have a nice bar inside the lodge, which is really nice

    No microwave to cook our own food. No cupboards to store food away from insects. Coconut trees not maintained to prevent falling fruit. Quite dangerous as the balcony was directly under a heavily fruiting coconut tree which dropped a couple while we were there. Shower had a constant drip. No major issues really. We just didn't realise how isolated the island was and how simple life is there. I guess we expected a bit much and were a little surprised.

    Right on the Beach of the lagoon was fantastic! Handy to takeaway food and a 24/7 shop. Fresh local fruit every day for breakfast. Incredible views of the lagoon every day.
