Southern Cook Islands, Australia - New Zealand and the South Pacific hotel rooms at the Independent

"We had a great time. The premises is clean and well kept. Air con was lovely. Bed was comfy. Pool was fun. Breakfast delicious and staff are kind and helpful. The location is great with the beach across the street for snorkelling, kayaking and watching the sunset. Lots of gear available including water booties, life jackets, fins including kid sizes. Easy to catch the bus and there is a rental car place just down the road. One/two restaurants within walking distance. All was very easy and would definitely stay here again. "

"Very nice people and close to the airport "

"The room was well equipped, clean and comfortable. Staff were so helpful and friendly especially reception staff Frances, Inoke and Ryan and Jone in the restaurant. We loved staying at the Crown and would recommend it to others."

"The staff are friendly, rooms are tidy and a fit for purpose, we fit a family of four into a room, kids 11 and 9 on bunk beds, bit of coordination too "

"Had a lovely time at Edgewater Resort. The staff were friendly and always greeted us with a smile. The grounds and rooms were immaculate. The staff that catered for my sister's birthday did a fantastic job as well✨ Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Rarotonga ☺️"

"Great staff"

"It was very clean, the soaps and shampoo and conditioners smelt amazing and the staff were very friendly"

"Our stay with our 2 adult children was just what we hoped for some genuine family time. From the time we landed, we were treated in the most genuine and special way. Collection from the airport was faultless and arrival at the property made us feel like family. We had 2 Beachfront bungalows which were ideally furnished and supplied with push bikes, kayak and paddle board. Restaurants were perfectly serviced by the most beautiful staff. Special shout out to Terri, Jerry, Nocy, Luke, Pali and the reception lady (so sorry to not recall your name), you are wonderful kind people. Lagoon area excellently equiped with seating and water sport equipment. Property grounds were stunning and perfectly maintained. Not that we needed to leave but other really nice eateries with a short walk/bike ride. What an exceptional team of people you have that are committed to providing the ultimate stay. We will see you again. Thankyou"

"The room was fantastic and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The food wes excellent. We will be staying here again!"
