Moana Sands Beachfront Villas, hotel in Rarotonga

Located within a few steps of Vaimaanga Beach and 2 km of Arakuo Beach, Moana Sands Beachfront Villas provides rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Rarotonga.

We absolutely loved Moana Sands Beachfront Villas. We were greeted at the airport and taken to our villa. There was fresh fruit and cereal provided for breakfast. After the first morning, we had breakfast right next door at Circles Cafe. The rooms were very clean and spacious, and each bedroom had its own bathroom. We walked straight out of our room onto the golden sands and a perfect swimming / snorkelling beach. There were kayaks and snorkel gear provided for free. There is a 24 hour shop across the road and takeaways on the weekend. Everything we needed was on the doorstep. To top it off, the staff were wonderful. Extremely friendly and helpful. We can't wait to come back, and have already recommended Moana Sands to our friends!

    Our trip was amazing, however there was one theme that was a huge put off. Some of the places we went had absolutely horrible attitudes towards us. Rude with no greetings and sour faces, it is not nice to be treated like that. This was NOT at every place we went but it was enough times to stand out. Apart from that....it was a fun filled trip

    Rarotonga is a great place to visit.

    Rarotonga is a great place to visit. Its layed back and the weather is very nice. The beaches are great. We ate at Supper Browne in Tupapa at their cafe which was reasonably cheap steak meal. The local food on the early morning on Sunday was fantastic. Going to the movies could be good for young couples to spend some quality time without being too occupied with big expensive activities.

    Enjoyed staying on the island of Rarotonga.

    Enjoyed staying on the island of Rarotonga. Also did a day trip to Aitutaki. Both places were great for snorkelling, need water shoes to protect your feet from the coral. Night markets offered delicious food. We used the local bus to get around the island.

    There is something special about this place.

    There is something special about this place. From the moment we stepped off the plane, we felt so relaxed and welcomed. We stayed at Club Raro Resort (Adults Only) and I can only speak highly about this accommodation. They have amazing staff and the restaurant offers the BEST ribs on the island! Rarotonga is so relaxed and peaceful, all the locals and business's are really friendly, helpful and welcoming. You can use your New Zealand dollars, so no need for exchanging money before your trip. Easy to get around the island via rental car, scooter, bike or bus. Koka Lagoon Cruises were excellent! Four hours of fun, beautiful fish to see, snorkeling, yummy lunch and an entertaining show on an island. Happy Hour at The Edgewater Resort were a great price and so good. I've been here twice now and Raro will continue to be my annual holiday from now on.

    We had a lovely seaview room that looked out across the top of other resort buildings, out to the ocean. Our room was very clean, very comfortable and all that we needed. It was excellent value for money. We had a couple of meals at the restaurant and particularly loved the Ika Mata. The absolute standout at the Castaway Resort was the staff. Before, during and upon check out they were outstanding and are truly an asset to the resort and as representatives of Rarotonga. Thank you for making our stay so wonderful.

    We were meet at the airport and transported to the property - about a 15min drive. We much appreciated the breakfast food and some extra's to get us started. This is a beautiful villa - directly on the beach, with its own private pool. We loved the different aspects this Villa offered, ie pool area, beach deck, lounge. But do make sure you visit Muri Beach - via the Muri Beach Hotel and enjoy what they have and a more sheltered beach.

    - location very good as far as oceanfront. Note though, this is an EXTREMELY windy side to island, and very different to outside of Oceanside of complex. The snorkelling off the hotel backside is very nice. - nice pool. - rooms are big however tv could have been more modern and better viewing options for room price. - felt “Leigh” at reception was charismatic, good laugh, liked the banter.

    Muri Beach Club Hotel has all the amenities of a large resort but is small enough to be intimate for couples and small groups. Beautiful location in the heart of Muri. We had a beachfront room with the best views of the beach and motu. The staff are friendly and we want to thank the General Manager, Liana, for looking after us on check in. She definitely went above and beyond.

    Great location on Muri Beach, responsive owner and staff with a lot of nice touches. We particularly like the availability of an in room massage. The place is within walking distance to activities and restaurants. And located right by the night market. Owner was upgrading the WiFi while we stayed there and it was much improved before we left.Hope to come next year with a group.

    Well located at Aroa beach with one of the best beachside snorkelling you will have in Rarotonga. Complimentary snorkel gear, kayaks, paddle boards were also useful. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. Attached to the Rarotongan hotel, it is good for a getaway side due to it being adults only. Good air conditioning, decent restaurant.

    The view is insane. The snorkeling out the front is the best we had all over island. The photos don't capture how beautiful it is. House is huge, comfortable and well equipped. Has everything you need. Fancy views but homey house. Little store directly across road and big supermarket 10 minute walk away. Bus stops right outside.

    Had everything we needed for the purpose of our trip. It was lovely having a large private outdoor area covered and uncovered. Being close to the popular swimming and snorkeling spots was also a bonus. Our hosts were also very attentive and hospitable. A wonderful welcome for our first trip to the Cook Islands.

    Location was ideal. Right in town with easy access to cafes, restaurants, bars & buses. Room was a bit dated, but spacious & clean. Lots of dogs and chickens to make sure you wake up on time, but I think that's pretty typical for Rarotonga. Housekeeping was every other day and they did an excellent job.

    The host Sunnie is the best. She prepared the welcome breakfast once I arrived. She also sent me to the airport on the day of my departure. I feel home away from home. All staff in the villas are friendly and caring. I definitely recommend to stay there if you plan to visit Rarotonga.

    The Rarotongan is in a stunning location - probably the best we saw on the Island - gorgeous beach and clear water with plenty of coral for snorkeling but enough clear area to swim easily at all tides. And more gorgeous empty beaches around the corner.
