Stayed in July 2025, Beautiful Villa, Very spacious, great for families , the pool is added bonus for days where you want to relax and chill. Location to Airport and town very close. Thank you to Janet, very friendly and excellent communication from before arrival to arriving and on the island. Our Family group enjoyed staying at Vaniva’s Villa. Highly recommend A, Meitaki Maata

Thanks for letting us stay at your great house; I have visited Raro over a dozen times and blue starfish is the best place we have stayed in. The location is perfect - the sunset side is definitelt the place to be and the Rarotongan is a 5 min walk down the road if you want to enjoy the resort facilities without paying the hotel tarriff. Don't tell anyone - its our secret!

We had an absolutely delightful stay at Connie’s and would highly recommend! Lovely home, plenty of room for all 7 of us, clean and lots of little touches that were much appreciated. The gardens are beautiful, the views incredible and just across the road from a gorgeous beach. Then you have your very own beach hut which is much bigger than I expected & has plenty of kayaks, snorkels, reef shoes etc and loads of room to sit and watch the kids play on the beach if you get tired. We really could have stayed a lot longer and would definitely come back again. Location is very handy. Connie is a lovely lady as is her sister Jacqui. Thankyou so much for a wonderful stay :)

What an amazing villa, gardens were beautiful, hosts were great. Loved the lemon bread and fruits provided on arrival. Perfect location and the lagoon at your backdoor. We will be back.

Beautiful outlook perfect location Fantastic holiday

The property and location were even better than we expected. The view was stunning and the layout of the property and grounds made it super private. The snorkelling was amazing around the motu and the house had everything we needed. Loved having the beach as our "road" to walk to the little shops, night markets and cafes. Perfect holiday in a perfect spot.

We enjoyed staying at Raukura homes. The house was reasonably large for 2 people with all equipment for cooking. All areas were very clean. The hosts were really friendly and helpful. It was close to a beautiful beach.

Pleasantly surprised by the size and openness of the property. The thoughtfulness of providing staples (coffee, milk, bread etc) was appreciated given we arrived at the property at 3:00am and knew we would not have to immediately head out in the morning to get supplies. The communication with the villa owners was quick, informative and very pleasant. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a beautiful home in a beautiful location to enable, resilience, restoration and rejuvenation.
