Marianne and Wise were so friendly and helpful. We were personally welcomed and farewelled which was really nice. Also Marianne gave us some great recommendations. We also liked how close it was to the beach and that it was more relaxed and quieter than Muri. Also appreciated being able to drink the tap water as it was treated with a UV filter.

The walls / floor to the other apartments, particularly the one above ours, are very thin. We could hear other travellers very loudly during our stay which impacted our rest. Also, the wifi connection was quite poor in our room, and would consistently drop out.

The property had everything we needed! It was great to have kitchen facilities to prepare our own food and have beach gear available for us to borrow at any time.

Absolutely nothing!!!

We absolutely loved the location! Very friendly people!Very close to the beach, lots of places to eat and drink. Not far from the airport or the buses to get to a supermarket etc We loved that the Cooks Oasis supplies water gear, washing facilities (including powder!) and wifi all free of charge. The villa was so spacious and very clean. We would definitely go back to stay!

That we couldn’t stay longer

Marianne and Wise were exceptional hosts and nothing was ever too much trouble. Our garden view villa was so comfortable and had absolutely everything we needed for our 6 night stay. We really appreciated the comfortable seating both inside and outside and although the weather didn’t always play ball we were more than content and comfortable in our accommodation. Wonderful facilities We ate 3 nights at nearby Anchorage restaurant which Wise managed and always had great meals, service and ambiance. W

We had an absolutely excellent stay at Cooks Oasis! The location was perfect, with a beautiful beach only a one-minute walk away. The accommodation was spotless and comfortable, and the gardens were beautiful and relaxing. The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Everything exceeded our expectations — we can’t wait to come back!

Amazing place to stay, from the lovely, clean villas, to the outstanding management. Marianne, Wise, and the rest of the team were great, always going above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and looked after during our stay. The villas had everything you needed, along with kayaks and snorkeling gear, a BBQ, and a laundry area, all free to use, and the beach is just down the path for some excellent snorkeling. Such a nice quite area away from the big resorts. We will definitely be staying again!

That we couldn’t stay longer! This is our go to place in Rarotonga

Cooks Oasis is a treasure in the crown of Rarotonga. Everything you need is here, pool, beach, close (but not too close) to town. Beautiful sunsets and great snorkeling right down the driveway.

Super easy access to the beach, close to Black Rock and a fish and chip truck going clockwise, and good meal options anticlockwise. All walkable. Handy shop nearby for essentials. The room was lovely, had everything we needed! Plenty of space.

An air con system would have been better as we had the fans going the entire stay, hard to get to sleep with them on.

This spot is right off the beach, and the best area for watching sunset - we spotted whales twice! Friendly staff, we got to check in early and we're very accommodating with our bags. Refreshing pool, good food nearby as well as a short walk to the brewery. Room was comfortable and cosy. Highly recommend

The location could be better. There were limited food options within walking distance.

We stayed here for a quick rest before heading out to Aitutaki. Maryanne was lovely. The place was clean and just what we needed to get some shut eye. We managed to venture to the beach for a short trip which is within walking distance. The plunge pool was also lovely for a quick dip.

Traffic noise a little but not sooo bad.

Had everything you needed to feel settled and welcome flowers and papaya made a lovely touch!

Marianne was so friendly and really made our stay as good as it could possibly be. She gave great tips for things to do.

The open roof between the two bedrooms was not what we expected and it didn't suit us because my husband and I both snore and it kept our daughter awake. We thought being able to get a DVD from the laundry room was a great idea, but unfortunately, we couldn't turn the TV up loud enough to be able to hear it properly, so we gave up.

The beds were comfortable and the apartment was clean and had everything you needed. The fruit and flowers were a nice touch as was having the use of the kayaks and snorkeling gear. The hosts were very pleasant and friendly. The location to the beach was fantastic. We also had a very nice meal at the Spaghetti House restaurant just down the road.

No restaurant at hotel, but many eateries are within walking distance. No A/C, but with fans and open windows, room temperature was OK

OK. Good. Correction on WiFi. Reception excellent.

Well appointed, comfortable and clean accommodation providing everything you need for a relaxing holiday. From BBQ facilities, kayaks, snorkel gear, laundry, DVDs and books our group thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. To top it all off the hosts- Marianne and Wise- were lovely people and helped us organise taxi to the airport as well as late check out options.
