We just stayed at Club Raro. We had a beach front room and it was magnificent! Beautiful views right from the front door watching the water and the whales jumping every day. Staff here are absolutely beautiful souls and nothing is ever a problem, they are always happy and helpful. Great fire dancing show on Friday night, and each night is something different within the restaurant and resort. Pool and swim up bar is just beautiful, we sat around the pool in the pool lounges with our bucket of beer and relaxed the day away. you can walk straight down the stairs and you’re in the water. Complementary snorkelling gear and reef shoes ready to go. We had an excellent time here and we have already started planning for our next trip back here next year! Very happy with our choice to stay here.

Excellent ocean views with whale sightings every day of our Oct/Nov stay. Poolside bar and sun loungers were just perfect! We felt the resort could lift its game a little bit easily to push into a 4star facility. Staff were excellent and food good.

Wonderful stay. We stayed here for 6 nights total. Arrived at 3am on the first night and were checked into our room asap. Rooms were clean and spacious. The pool area was fantastic and there were lots of places to sit down and sunbathe or have a few drinks. Staff were incredibly friendly and attentive.

The property is conveniently situated within a walkable distance of Avarua. We couldn’t get a continuous booking in one room for the week as we booked at short notice. Initially we were supposed to win an ocean view room but were lead to a garden room facing the main road. Queried why and told the other rooms had been double booked! Heard of a few others that this happened to. We did get a credit etc. so the week was pretty good. Staff are generally very friendly and restaurant food at a good standard.

Nice quiet place to relax. A pleasant enough place to stay. Staff were helpful and thoughtful. Unfortunately their booking system is unreliable. The room we had booked, an ocean view room, was not available for us! We were not told this when we checked in, but were lead to another room out the back facing the main road. It was not until we got there and re-checked our booking that we noticed. I immediately went to reception to ask for an explanation as the price difference was around $100/night. We were told that there were no booked rooms were available. I did get some compensation, however we also spoke to and heard that at least 5 other couples had the same experience of being taken to another room and not the reserved ‘ocean view’ room.
