Lagoon Breeze Villas

A party of eight friends shared two villas for nine nights in September 2024. The villas had everything we needed and were comfortable and well appointed. A Weber barbecue meant that some self catering was very doable and affordable. The daily quality breakfast was just what we needed without being over the top. Snorkelling equipment, a great pool, and a really friendly vibe made for a seriously easy holiday, especially coming from NZ which uses the same currency. I won't start raving about the dozens of humpbacks we watched, or the fabulous meals and coffees we all enjoyed. Can't rave enough...

We stayed here as a wider family - with 18 people in total over 5 families. Each one had a one-bedroom villa. Overall, it was very nice and we would happily recommend it. Especially for a large group like ours. The rooms were very nice. The communal area was great to get together for dinner and drinks. Plus the tiki bar had a great happy hour. Their cocktails were only $13 and VERY strong. Fantastic value. The pool was good, and plenty of access to beach towels and snorkeling gear. A couple of times we needing things and nobody was available, especially on Sunday. But that's island time, so gotta roll with it. Our family didn't seem to get as much room service as others in our party. Our towels were changed less often, and our bed and bin were never changed. But we didn't stress about it. The beach out in front is nice on a calm day. As the winds are predominantly South-West, most days were not calm though, it was often quite breezy (yes like the name). We didn't use the beach much, we went to Muri more of the time, where it was calmer.

This is not our first visit. It will not be our last visit (all being well). Based in a great location for beach and snorkeling activities, plenty to do on site for the kids. Throw in good knowlagable staff and comfortable clean accommodation and you have an ideal place for your holiday Base.

This villa complex fit the bill for my sister and I with a friend joining us for the 2nd week. We had plenty of room for 3-4 in the one bedroom villa with twin bed alcove. The whole staff is warm, welcoming and friendly. the breakfast provided was delicious with fresh fruit, cereals, tasty yogurt and toast. The coffee is excellent. The grounds are well kept and it is right across the road from a beautiful beach . Great beach combing and a short walk to a beach with easy access to the water for snorkeling. We opted out of the car rental and took the bus for our trips into town or out for lunch. I love this place and we have already decided to return in 2 years for another wonderful vacation to Rarotonga.

Excellent place to stay for family vacation. Our family of 14 had the best time at lagoon breeze villas. Villas, pool,grounds excellent and snorkeling straight across the road. Vikki, Naomi, thank you both. You were very welcoming and very helpful. Tata, thank you for showing the family how to husk a coconut. We had a lot of fun and laughs. We all enjoyed cocktail evenings with tauine. Breakfast girls wonderful!!! Highly recommend this peice of paradise .

Loved our stay at the Lagoon Breeze Villas. While not beachfront, the beach is directly across the road. A beautiful quiet beach for snorkelling with plenty of tropical fish, just steps away. The property has such a beautiful, relaxing and welcoming feel. The grounds and gardens are well cared for. Our two bedroom villa was spacious and comfortable, with a large private deck, everything we needed. We woke every morning to the sounds of roosters and a complimentary tropical breakfast, with fresh and tinned fruits, cereals, breads, juices, tea and coffee. Loved the tiny bananas. The pool looked lovely but was not heated, so icy cold, I preferred to swim in the ocean. Our host Vicki was wonderful, helpful and set the tone for an amazing stay on Rarotonga. With limited internet access in the Cook Islands, we purchased a Vodafone hotspot wifi pass at reception for $25 (including 30GB 3 users) to get us by. We travelled around the island on the bus ($30 10 ride pass or $5 one way adult / $3 child). One clockwise and anti clockwise bus every hour. We only needed to occasionally catch a taxi at night to get home ($25-$40). Make sure to carry cash for the bus or taxi. The bus was easy to catch to and from the airport. With a bus stop right out front. The convenience store and Rarotongan resort are both about a 5 minute walk away. We also walked 15 minutes to Shipwreck’s for great beachfront sunset food and drinks. I’m so glad we choose the Lagoon Breeze Villas! The other area of the island that looked nice to stay on a beautiful beach was around Palm Grove.
