    Can’t really fault it, hotel was perfect. You will need to hire some sort of transport; however, buses do operate just at the front of the premises, so there is a public transport option. The hotel does provide airport transfers too. But again, still no faults with the hotel.

    Steps from paradise: a beautiful location, super comfy stay, great facilities, friendly staff, and a much appreciated 12pm check-in, especially when early arrival means a wait. I booked 2 rooms, 1 family room and 1 couple room, both were very cosy. Would definitely, book again.

    Property is a bit old, shower may need to be replaced soon, shower temperature keeps cutting off, the breakfast was okay, nothing special, not much fruit available. Pool was looking old too.

    The property has a beach access, located in Muri, just beside the night market and there are plenty of restaurants nearby. Offers free use of kayaks, paddle boards, snorkel gears and bikes. The place is spacious, bed was comfortable and daily cleaning service is good too.

    Nothing, only that we didnt stay long enough!

    We absolutely loved our stay here, so much so we have already booked our next visit for 2026! Airport transfers very convinient. All staff, from the ladies in reception, to the cleaning team, were lovely, friendly and helpful! The front desk ladies organised some platters from Island Platters for us which were amaaazing. Get them, you won't regret it!! Rooms were clean, comfortable & spacious. Beach access was awesome, walk straight in for a swim, (made my morning swim very easy!) or free use of snorkelling equipment, SUP boards and kayaks. We initially couldn't work out how to turn the air con on (switch is right by the door FYI, as i worked out about 2 minutes before we left 🫣😆) but we didnt need it anyway as the nights were lovely and cool. Handy quiet location - Captain Tamas or Koka Lagon cruises were on either side, and a bus stop right out front. Supermarket a couple of doors down the street. Night markets for food also right next door for dinner. Great coffee at the Espresso Fix (right across the road, they have Matcha too!) Amazing cocktails at the Barefoot Bar (Pacific Resort) and super delicious & generous meals at the Beach Hut, both only a walk down the beach in either direction.

    we were picked up at the airport and the driver had our keys and directed us to our villa as we arrived when the office was closed. Very smooth process. we could see the sea from the villa and was just a few steps away. Loved having the snorkelling gear, SUP and kayaks all of which we used. there were outdoor showers and hoses to rinse everything off. breakfast was provided basic but did the job

    Everything was great. There was nothing we didn’t like.

    A great location with lagoon views from our room. The staff were friendly and helpful, breakfast was great and all water-sport equipment were available for use at anytime. The guest room was fabulous as our flight wasn’t until 10pm. Having a room to use after checkout was a bonus. A peaceful place in paradise!

    Nothing loved it all.

    Loved location right on Muri Lagoon. Our one bedroom self contained sea view (lagoon view) apartment was in a perfect location, not right at the front on u shaped units but still had a view & 30 metres to deck which looked over lagoon & steps to beach. Had our own table & chairs & sunloungers out front of each unit. Apartment was comfortable, separate bedroom, lounge area, kitchen facilities if you’d like to cook(we didn’t), communal laundry (also didn’t use). Simple packed breakfast provided each day, juice, milk, small cereal packs, bread & condiments. Supermarket close by if you’d need more. Swimming pool up front of resort, kayaks, paddle boards, snorkels/flippers, reef shoes, bikes & local bus stop at front. Night market next door (not every night). Resort staff were wonderful, looked after everything we needed during our 7 night stay.

    Lovely property in a fantastic location.

    • One-Bedroom Bungalow with Sea View - Adults Only

    Really only two negatives and a long list of positives 1. The bed was very spongy, we like firm mattresses but it was bouncy. 2. We found that the Beachcomber was reasonable value considering other properties but Raratonga generally is expensive to stay at and if you buy your own groceries, they are eye-waveringly expensive except for meat, which is good value.

    Fantastic location on a huge, gorgeous area of the lagoon with lots of sandy base as well as great snorkelling. Many Raratonga properties have rock beds on their lagoon out front, which makes swimming a lot less enjoyable, but the Beachcomber is a perfect mix. Also brilliant was the access to the night food market (next door), amazing Takitumu Tapas (wow food) across the road, plus the truly wonderful Saigon Shack (incredible quality Vietnamese) and excellent Nautilus restaurant, both a short 5min bike ride away. Free bikes were fantastic to have, free unlimited wifi was great for movies on rainy days/nights, kitchen was pretty good for cooking, bathroom/shower was modern and roomy, plenty of interior space overall, nice grounds.
