"We booked one night as a stopover before flying to Tahiti, but flight changes meant we had to stay longer. This small, charming property has just four rooms, a huge pool and an excellent restaurant next door. Everything you need is provided. The fridge was stocked with fresh water, fruit, cake and even almond milk for my coffee, which was thoughtfully arranged after asking about my preferences. The rooms are functional, spacious enough and spotlessly clean. Our first room had a large bathroom,...

Views were amazing - close to everything and the staff was super responsive to all requests. Air conditioning worked extremely well. Sliding glass doors need to be leveled/fixed to seal fully with no gaps. very Comfortable beds. Modern interior - would stay again! The 3br is great for friends or family and having the 2 full large bathrooms was excellent. Access to Muri beach hotel and pool was added bonus- we liked the food there alot. Snorkeling is honestly better elsewhere on island due to...

10/10 Excellent

It was sad saying our goodbyes to the Cook Islands. My niece, nephew, and I, had such a wonderful time at Pacific Resort Rarotonga that we intend to come back again. The resort had everything that we needed that made our vacation comfortable and enjoyable. It is in the best location in the entire island, on beautiful Muri Beach in the lagoon ideal for swimming, kayaking, stand up paddle, kite surfing and snorkeling. The resort provided all the gears for all kinds of water activities. We...

10/10 Excellent

Would definitely stay again! The service was great -- they even let us do late checkout so we didn't have to burn time before our flight. The pool area is nice, and the grounds are well thought out. Just to manage expectations, this isn't a luxury hotel, but it's great for a beach vacation. There was a clothing line outside behind our room for hanging wet clothes, and a kitchen as well. Plus, the room was really spacious. It's a particularly great place for families, although we traveled as a...

We cannot think of one thing to improve our experience at the Crown Beach Resort. The staff was genuinely friendly but not intrusive, the front desk personnel were competent and thoughtful, the included breakfast was excellent (lots of hot and cold dishes, with personal orders accommodated), the villas were beautifully decorated and quietly and efficiently air conditioned, the spa was lovely, and the grounds were gorgeous. The on-site restaurant and cocktails were excellent, and served under...
