Holiday rentals with a pool in Avarua

This place is absolutely gorgeous, with stunning ocean views! We arrived late on a stormy night and experienced rough weather for the first day and a half, and it was wonderful to be in such fabulous accommodations. We relaxed in the living room watching the giant waves crashing out the glass doors/wall, ran across the street for snacks & burgers, and were able to wander the beach when the rain paused. We stayed several other places on our trip (joined a group tour), and this was hands-down the BEST! So glad we were here for the stormy part, as we still got to enjoy our time, regardless of the weather. Our last morning, with clear weather, we enjoyed the most beautiful sunrise! You can view this from your bed, or wander out on the patio. Home is new & lovely with solid internet & great amenities; we did some light cooking & appreciated having the necessities on hand. They provide a binder with all kinds of useful info, recommendations & maps. Great, fast communication.

We had the most amazing time at Starboard which was pure paradise. From the moment we arrived, the stunning ocean views took our breath away, and the villa itself was better than the photos. The infinity pool was our daily retreat, we couldn't get enough of it. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to cook meals, and the complimentary coffee, fruit, and fresh bread were great touches. Waking up to the sunrise over the ocean each morning was a highlight. While the beach in front of the villa is more for sunbaking than swimming, the pool more than made up for it. Muri Beach is also just a short drive away and perfect for swimming. Having the car included was amazing. It made exploring the island, going to dinners, and doing day tours really easy. Our host Anita went above and beyond to assist us during our stay (including meeting us at the airport on the final day to collect the car) - the epitome of a super host. Don’t hesitate - book now!

Ake Ake House was the perfect holiday escape! The property is a brand new build, and you can really tell—everything feels fresh, modern, and beautifully maintained. The layout of the home is so well thought out, making it super comfortable and easy to relax in. It had everything we could possibly need for our stay, from a fully equipped kitchen to thoughtful touches throughout. The pool was absolutely stunning—a true highlight—and we spent a lot of time enjoying it. Honestly, the photos don’t do the place justice. It’s even more beautiful in person. We had an incredible time and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ake Ake House to anyone heading to Rarotonga. Can’t wait to come back!

Dear Leilani and Vai, Thank you both so much for a truly wonderful stay at your beautiful home in Rarotonga. Having visited the island more than 20 times over the years, we can honestly say your property has been one of our absolute favourites. The home is incredibly spacious, immaculately clean and tidy, and perfectly set up for a relaxing stay. We especially loved the pool area – the covered spaces on both sides of the living area made it easy to enjoy the outdoors at any time of day, rain or shine. Vai, thank you for the outstanding job keeping everything in such pristine condition – it really made a difference and did not go unnoticed. For future guests, we’d highly recommend Vianna’s for a casual bar experience, Nautilus for finer dining and delicious small plates, and the Bond Store for the best value alcohol outside of duty free. If the weather plays along, a jet ski tour with TVK watersports is also an exciting way to experience the island from a different perspective.

We enjoyed our stay in Rarotonga at Addrienne's Air bnb. Firstly was greeted by Tama at the airport and we followed him back to the house. So was a smooth checkin. It was very peaceful, beautiful scenery over looking the airport and ocean. Rooms were very spacious, big kitchen, out door area was great and the pool.was a bonus with the hot and humid weather. Bambam and Evie were such beautiful dogs and were very placid and enjoyed the company. They would always greet you in the morning or when you return home. Overall we all had a fantastic stay and definetly would recommend it.

Our second time staying here for a girls holiday and we absolutely love it, we will be back again. We absolutely lived in the pool and out on the big porch. Close to everything, hired a car to shoot off to the beach and cafes and restaurants. Plenty of food options within walking distance too. Nora and John are amazing hosts. Thank you ❤️

We absolutely loved Diane's place. It was perfect for our group of six. It felt homely, restful and everything we needed. The view was amazing and so wonderful having the pool and beach right there. We didn't want to leave. A real treasure. We also appreciated the availability of kayaks, snorkel gear, aqua shoes and beach towels. A huge thanks to Diane and her team.

Lovely older villa in a picturesque location right on Muri lagoon. The onsite managers, Jo and Mike were lovely and Mike even helped us with a last minute tyre change on our rental van when we were on our way to the airport. With the recent dengue outbreak and a baby in our party we were mindful of mosquitoes. We appreciated the nets over the beds and access to coils etc as we did see quite a few mossies as there are quite a few gaps where they can access the house. The villa is lovely and roomy with multiple inside and outside areas to sit and relax. It is great having the pool on the non ocean side protected from the SE wind.
