The hotel is right next to Little Polynesian, convenient location, you can take the bus to the town, the beach is very beautiful, can enjoy the ocean view directly from room. The room is clean, with cutlery and a kettle, but the bath water is not stable.

We spent 10 wonderful days at Moana Sands Beachfront Hotel and thoroughly enjoyed every moment! Our accommodation was fantastic: walking distance to a beautiful beach, well designed and equipped room and very relaxed and friendly restaurant. The staff were very polite, welcoming and friendly. Our meals at the restaurant were delicious - the Ika Mata was absolutely amazing! We plan to visit the Cook Islands again in the future and will definitely stay at Moana Sands again!

A great location, absolute beach front. Wonderful sized room with stunning views of the Pacific Ocean. All the staff are wonderful and very friendly. Breakfast has good selection of fruits, fresh salad greens, an all round good continental selection. Snorkelling from this location is one of the best on the island. Husband swan with a pod of stingrays out the front of the hotel. Watch whales go by,, pure magic. Great equipment supplied for ocean activities. Just wished there were more sun loungers. If you eat at the restaurant we recommend fresh spring rolls, perfection. Thank you to all the team for a great stay.

Everything about this accommodation ticked the boxes. The facility is dated BUT the rooms, restaurant & other areas felt so, so clean. They also have everything you need at the hotel. The outdoor swimming equipment is well equipped. The food at the restaurant was very, very reasonably priced & the best we had on the island. The housekeeping & and restaurant team are a phenomenal group of people & definitely add to this amazing spot. The beach here is also the best on the island for swimming and snorkeling. We will be back to stay here again.

Fantastic spot! Exceptionally clean! Beautiful beach and great snorkelling! Quiet and peaceful with beautiful views of the sea. We sat out on our second floor balcony well into the evening relaxing and taking in the warm sea breeze. Staff are friendly and helpful. Great value for money! Highly recommended.
