About the area
Rarotonga
Located in Avarua, a neighbourhood in Rarotonga, this apartment is in a rural area and by the sea. The area's natural beauty can be seen at Muri Beach and Aroa Beach. Tikioki Marine Sanctuary and Cocoputt are also worth visiting. Scuba diving and snorkelling offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with hiking and mountain biking nearby.
