“A Carefree Vacation”

Reviewed 30 April 2013

My husband and I have just returned home to Colorado after two weeks at Sunhaven Beach Bungalows on Rarotonga in the Cook Islands. We wanted a carefree vacation and that was exactly what we found at Sunhaven. We stepped into a spotless bungalow that was just a few paces from the ocean’s edge. The wide beach at Sunhaven offers big... More

We stayed at this little place in October 2012 for just over a week - We were in Rarotonga for a wedding but it was great to come back to this little place of paradise!!

Call it a bad match, planets not aligned, not meant to be or just a plain bad hair day for the owner but I have never been treated as such. I wanted to change hotels after my first night because I did not feel comfortable at this hotel. The fact that a hand written notice on the patio door of... More

My first reaction to this review was to ignore it and let readers see it for what it is. However it has become my practice to respond to all reviews therefore, for the record, I will give readers some insight into the correct version of events. Mirella D booked 5 nights in our garden bungalow online through Booking.com. When Mirella... More

Such a wonderful place to relax. Beautiful location right on the beach with well furnished, comfortable rooms a lovely pool to float around in relaxing. Kayaks, reef shoes and snorkel gear to freely borrow for exploring the reef right out front. Dennis and Patti and their very friendly and always smiling staff looked after us exceedingly well. Patti herself went... More

Kia Orana Gavin, Thank you for your review. Don't imagine you're getting a lot of coconut milk to drink right now. Or that there are many coconut trees for you to practice your newly found talent climbing. You'll have to come back to Raro for that. Hope to see you again. Take care, Kia Manuia, Dennis, Patti, and the always... More

“Absolute Pleasure”

What an absolute pleasure it was to spend our 6 nights on Rarotonga firmly ensconced within the Sunhaven Beach Bungalow's boundaries. Dennis and Patti and their small friendly team of diligent cleaners and groundskeepers do, as stated in all the other reviews here, keep what must be one of the cleanest, neatest, yet still relaxed places to stay on the...

I spent 3 weeks at Sunhaven over Christmas and New Year's. My decision to stay at Sunhaven was based on favourable comments of a neighbour who has stayed there.
