Coral Sands are amazing self contained apartments, with hosts that go way further than the extra mile! 1st days lovely food left for you, picked up and dropped off from the airport at whatever time you arrive or depart. Gorgeous pool, and only steps to the beach. Convenient location on the Island, and spotlessly clean.

A beautiful island! Great accommodation with everything you need! Fresh fruit, bread, milk, juice, butter, cereal! Don't forget your duty free when you land as the apartment has a blender for cocktail time,(with so much beautiful local, cheap fruit it would be rude not too!) as the beach is only a few meters away it was nice to make a...

We finally got to have our long awaited holiday to Rarotonga. What a great time we had, made all the more special by our hosts Bob and Karen. Their knowledge of the Island, its history and their expertise in the needs of travellers, all made a massive impact on us having the most wonderful time. Coral Sands is perfect for... More

We sought out this place after a week at a timeshare resort. What a great find, in hindsight we wished we had spent our entire 2 weeks at the Coral Sands. The place is maintained to a very good standard with plenty of lovely touches (eg tropic fruit bowl, free DVDs, kayaks and even a torch and umbrella to use).... More

We were lucky enough to be able to go to Rarotonga for our honeymoon and what a place to stay at coral sands. It seemed to us that coral sands is positioned in the perfect spot, as the airport and the town is a short distance in one direction and Miri beach and the fruits of Rarotonga (which is amazing...

We decided to fly up to Rarotonga and get away from it all. We could not have found a more perfect place for a complete break. In fact we had the whole complex to ourselves as this is a very quiet time of the year for travel to the pacific islands. Even though the weather could have been better it... More

Rarotonga is a beautiful place. I enjoyed riding the motor scooter but watch out for dogs running on road. The lagoon is fantastic for swimming. It was great to make use of the kayaks provided at Coral Sands. Went to Wigmore Waterfalls. Wouldn´t reccommend this, a bit of a non-event. There are plenty of restaurants on island. Fabulous to have... More

This place is a real gem! Bob and Karen, the hosts, go out of their way to ensure your holiday is everything you want. They organised transfers, our scooters, even drove us around the island to meet with family. The accommodation is spacious, with all the amenities you would need for self-catering, though there are magnificent restaurants within a short... More
