Guestbook
“Hi Kathy, thanks again for your fantastic place and your warm hospitality. When we first got there none of us could believe our luck in getting such an awesome place – you can’t really tell just how spacious and beautiful your place is from the web photos. We were gob-smacked anyway – could not stop smiling for a good hour or so! Everyone’s STILL thanking me for finding your place on the web.
As you know we were considering hiring somewhere closer to the beach but now that we realize just how close everything is and how easy it is to get around on scooters etc we’re so glad we chose your place over all the other options. The seven of us spent our last two nights on Rarotonga at the Sunset Resort, which was good too, but we really missed having our own group space and place to just be ourselves like we did at your place.
If you’re a traveller reading this and thinking about other options don’t waste your time looking at anything other than this place – I mean, we didn’t try every place on the Island obviously, but I can’t imagine it getting any better than this for such a reasonable price.
All the best for the next year Kathy, and we’ll definitely come back if we return to Rarotonga in the future.
Kind Regards, Richard & Helen Robinson”
