Houses in Cook Islands

Amazing vacation spot! 🏝️ location is great, with a beautiful beach and peaceful environment. Clean spacious house, including a private clean pool made the stay even more enjoyable

A nice private place to stay close to Avarua. Also easy to catch a bus from there and get around the island. Jaewynn was friendly and helpful.

This Villa is situated at the best location in the island. Your front yard is basically the lagoon. The villa was spacious and all of the amenities were great. There are air conditioning units in each bedroom for those hotter days. Nora was super helpful and responsive. Richard, Nora’s dad, was extremely nice and knowledgeable about the island. He gave us tons of information. Richard also owns a boat and took us on a private lagoon tour. He is a retired fisheries officer with over 30 years of experience and still volunteers to help with conservation efforts of the island. Amazing family and an amazing stay.

Great little short stop stay for us as a family. Close to Muri beach and stores and convenient. We will be back.

A wonderful house in a stunning location - supported by a fantastic property manager. I've been fortunate to be traveling to Rarotonga and renting houses for around 25 years and this is by far the best accommodation I have ever stayed in. The house is cleverly designed with large open areas and sheltered terraces on both sides, with one opening to a courtyard with a lap-pool. The location is very private and quiet, yet gives direct access to the beach. The open plan living space works well for small or larger groups and the house is very well equipped. All that and an amazing property manager that ensured we were well supplied on arrival and responded immediately to our txt questions. Very highly recommended indeed. Now to plan for next year....

The accommodation was perfect for our needs. My family was able to rent out two of the three available units. The location was nice, quiet and cool and a nice getaway from what seemed like more crowded and less privacy at the beach. The laundry accommodation was a huge bonus and much needed. Also the neighbor was very sweet, helpful and was even nice enough to share stories and food with our ʻohana. We would definitely recommend this place, and if/when we do return to Rarotonga we would love to stay here again! Mahalo Scotty!

The location is perfect, right on the beach like on the main photo, the lagoon is very good for snorkeling and kayaking.

We enjoyed our stay at Tuvaine and Mary’s Villa. Clear instructions were provided before our arrival and the place was easy to locate even though our arrival was nearly 11pm at night. The house is across the road from the beautiful Aroa beach and it was the perfect spot for snorkeling. We loved our daily snorkeling trips. The place offers everything you need. It was easy to cook some homemade meals and the washing machine and dryer was a real bonus when we went to the sea daily. Looking forward to coming back soon!

Wow! This place is so beautiful, we woke up every morning greeted by complete ocean front views and watched the sun set over the water every afternoon... Perfect for our family trip (5 adults), there was enough space for everyone to spread out and have their own space as well as areas to hang out all together. I would definitely recommend this place for larger groups! Lotu was an amazing host, always replying to messages in a timely manner and being so helpful! Rarotonga is literally paradise and having a slice of that at your back doorstep every day is such a special experience. What are you waiting for, book it in!

The house was great, the location was perfect: it was easy to get to the beach and Muri town, and Cathy was wonderful to deal with and very helpful. We had a fantastic time!

Eileen was a good host and we enjoyed our 3 nights in her villa. It was as described with everything we could have needed. Close to 2 good resorts if you want to eat out ...very few local restaurants open in the evening when we were there. Pomegranate bush and lime tree in the garden. Lovely terrace to sit out on. Would recommend 👍

We felt relaxed the moment we arrived! The view is spectacular, having our ‘own’ beach amazing & the snorkelling on our doorstep fabulous. The house is well set up, there are lots of places to stock up nearby, plus loads of eating out options close. We did most of our living outside because the view really is unbeatable. The house is simple but had everything we needed.

Popongi manea, Absolutely beautiful home with great secure decking & gates. Lots of dining spaces for capturing the shade or sun. Spacious indoor outdoor flow with more than enough seating. Comfortable and safe at all times. Laundry room was accessible and appreciated. I had an injury so being able to walk around whilst enjoying the roof fans and big open windows was amazing. Pool was perfect to take a quick or long quiet soak. Benefits of the vehicle was amazing and so accomodating. We loved our stay at Nevaeh Holiday Home & will definitely book again in our trips. Thank you ra Kia Manuia 🌺

It was such a lovely stay, 2 of my friends and I stayed for 4 nights and enjoyed every night. It was like a real life Moana movie with the chickens there. The abundance of fruit in the backyard was amazing! The host were the most accommodating and kind people, everything we needed was available to utilise. If we ever get the chance to return to Rarotonga we would love to stay here again!

Spectacular! The place is awesome. We had looked at a few places and settled on Surf Mist and we were blown away at how wonderful it was. Her place is a 2 minute walk to the beach but because it is not right on the beach, it is very private and very quiet. Didn't see any neighbors the whole week, has a large living room and very nice kitchen. I really appreciate having salt, pepper, oil, coffee, etc... already stocked. I always hated having to buy a container of oil or salt to then only use a small part of it. Location is terrific. Our favorite snorkeling were all within a 7 minute drive. There is a small grocery store (Wigmore's) that is a 2 minute walk away, we walked there twice a day. Looking back at our trip, it was extremely convenient and really a big bonus to be so close to this grocery store. Unless you are going to be cooking heavily, there is no reason to go to the larger grocery store that is close to the airport. Vaima restaurant was a 4 minute walk. Lots close by.

We are so pleased to have discovered Teresa’s beautiful home! It is in an idyllic location, with the best snorkelling right outside. The home is huge, and very comfortable. Due to the mezzanine-nature of the master bedroom we had our 4 daughters stay upstairs, and we took the downstairs bedroom which opened on a patio directly by the sea. Moe, the neighbour who looks after Theresa’s home, was so lovely. We hope to return some day!

I booked Sonny’s place at the very last minute. Sonny was responsive to my request and made it super easy for me to check in at the late hour. My little bungalow was a perfect getaway, nothing special except for the view . The bungalow had everything I needed and I also had use of the stand up paddleboard and kayaks! Perfect location, close enough to what you need but also private. Sonny also was very accommodating to my itinerary as I was on a group tour in the am He stored my luggage until I needed to leave for the airport. I will stay here again.

Check in was smooth with clear instructions. Bob had great communication and recommendations when it came to booking vehicles for our stay. The accom was well maintained and cleaned regularly by their very welcoming cleaners. The pool was a hit and kids loved it! Would definitely come back here to stay in future

We had a wonderful stay at Carlos' unit-we stayed in the 2 bedroom downstairs.Set on a lush property, with massive garden at the front, large living areas (2 living areas inside) and a front patio and back patio! My 2 kids (9 and 6yrs) played endless games around the property and thoroughly enjoyed the space. We also enjoyed coffees on the front balcony surrounded by trees, birds and ever present chickens and roosters! It was quiet but well placed in the west of the island right next door to Edgewater resort where there are meal options and acitivities we could join. The walk to the beach/lagoon is only few mins, but reef shoes are a must - Carlos has kindly provided these along with snorkels etc.There were countless thoughtful touches, such as DVD's, board games, library of books, CD/AV/USB/phone connections (connectivity was not a problem!) Carlos also respected our privacy but was always around (and welcome) for a friendly chat - he knows his island home extensively.Hope to be back!

Absolutely gorgeous villa. spent plenty of time in the pool. Bedrooms were spacious with comfortable beds and air con in each room. kitchen and lounge area was large and comfortable. the hosts were extremely helpful with recommendations for rentals and things to do. highly recommend staying here. We will definitely stay at the Pacific Palms Luxury villas again.

First I would like to thank the host for going above and beyond for making me feel welcome from the moment I landed and stepped foot in their door 🫰🏾also for allowing me some extended check out time to get my washing dry in time and to tidy up the flat before I left, honestly can't thank yous enough 🥰 Nick even offered a ride to town on his way to work the next day, and offered if I would like to celebrate with his family on Anzac day ❤️ very friendly host, always asking if I'm okay or need anything or any help, I found that very helpful as it was my first stay in the cook islands, my first solo adventure 😊🙏🏾 I would definitely recommend nicks whare to any of my family and friends who would be nervous to travel alone. 10 out of 10 definitely would recommend. Ngaa Mihi koorua mo to manakitanga me to awhinatia o took haerenga I roto I te rarotonga! Arohanui Renee xx

Tara and Joy were such a pleasure. We had struggled for a few nights at previous accommodation with noise and no aircon. After contacting Tara quite late on a Sunday, she immediately had Joy prep the house for us (some yummy snacks were enjoyed) Joy met us and showed us the way. We were so relaxed, had space and privacy, amazing views from every room, slept well, had superb air-con and really enjoyed our holiday. The kids loved the pool and each night we enjoyed finding and counting the lizards, hiding away on the outside balcony. We are so thankful, this home really turned our holiday around for the better! This will be our first and only pick for our return accommodation :) Thank you Tara and Joy 😊

Odette and Joe are lovely warm hosts who go out of their ways to make your stay comfortable and welcoming. The location is peaceful and picturesque, a 5 minute walk from a very good bakery/coffee shop, and 30 mins from Muri Beach (it's more convenient to have a car or bike but they are both walkable), and we had a very nice stay.

The pictures don't do justice to how amazing this place is. The ocean views are incredible and getting to hear the waves crashing each day. Best way to start your day with the cool breeze. Nice location where it's close to town, Muri Beach and the amazing Love Cafe. A++ and would stay again 👍🏾
