Kia Orana Villas and Spa

Wonderfully appointed apartment with everything you need clean and comfortable, the place needs some maintenance with outdoor furniture falling apart (ratan), fly screens etc but overall great place to stay. I staff nice when you see them which is not often which is nice. This is not our first time to the island and love it we try and stay with local operators rather than the big resort styes. The biggest disappointment was the packs of roaming dogs 6/9 at times running through property and having fights outside our room and on balcony setting off sensor lights etc, quite imitating along with nonstop barking all night long, we stayed 11 nights only got a good sleep 3 times the rest constantly woken up with dogs. if you're a light sleeper like me this is not a good place to stay but would be if the dogs were addressed. if you go out for a walk you need to be alert to the packs of dogs that bark and run towards you so intimidating.

Super comfy bed and pillows, privacy in the honeymoon suite. Self contained suite so we could cook our own meals. Sane and her staff super helpful and friendly. Daily room service. Had an outdoor bath too!

Had the best stay with Kia Orana Villas! The room was beautiful and very spacious. Had everything we needed. A lounge area, dining table and comfortable bed. Outdoor shower was amazing so spacious! Our room had its own washing machine and dryer which was very convenient. Staff serviced our room everyday and did such an awesome job servicing it, always left clean. The pool and spa were lovely to chill and swim in. The staff were super lovely!!! Would definitely be staying here again if I ever do another trip to Raro.

If a beach view takes second place to value this venue offers excellent options. Spacious with full facilities the Villa's are just over one km from the water and town. The real gems here though are the staff. Super helpful and engaging with laid back charm. Best value IMHO would be on the first floor.

We booked through an agent and were very happy with his choice as this was our first trip to Rarotonga (for my husband and I). The location suited us, because it was close to the airport and Avarua town and not too far to The Needle walk. The room (a 1 bedroom luxury villa) was very comfortable with a full kitchen incl. coffee maker, washing machine & dryer. The bed was super comfortable, and the bathroom had a luxurious bath tub. Tip, if wanting a bath start filling this up early because the bath water pressure is slow although the shower pressure was great. The TV reception was not so great however there was an enormous supply of older movies free of charge. The continental breakfast with the freshly picked fruit, home-made yoghurt, Sane's freshly baked banana loaf and muffins were delicious and Jo's freshly made coffee was the icing on the cake for the husband. There are bikes for hire at a great price. I had a deep tissue massage onsite (bliss) at a reasonably price which was a nice treat. What made our holiday extra memorable was how all the staff shared their stories about their culture and “Island Life” and went the extra mile to ensure we had an enjoyable stay. Nothing was too much effort. Thank you Sane, Joseph, Tevita and Nancy.
