Aitutaki Lagoon Private Island Resort (Adults Only), hotel in Arutanga

Exclusively situated on its own private island, this luxury resort offers the only overwater bungalows in the Cook Islands, offering prime views of Aitutaki Lagoon, one of the world’s most beautiful...

Absolutely stunning location on a white-sand island at the edge of a blue water lagoon with palm trees dotted about. Nice rooms, super comfortable beds, and everything you need is provided (from bicycles to a Nespresso machine and even reef shoes!). Warm swimmable lagoon a few steps from our villa & pool options for variety. Wonderful friendly staff who really made us feel welcome! Decent buffet breakfast & really good cocktails (thanks Jerry!). Relaxed vibe with no need to dress up. We stayed 5 nights & the whole time was relaxing and wonderful. Great facial and massage from Mere too!

Tai Roto Bay, hotel in Arutanga

Tai Roto Bay offers spacious, authentic accommodation located on its own private beach on the southern tip from Ootu beach. It is a beach front property and safe to swim at all tides.

Staying at Tai Roto Bay was the perfect addition to our once-in-a-lifetime trip to Aitutaki. Cheran and her family made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Their attention to detail and thoughtful touches elevated our experience beyond expectations. The six bungalows are exactly as stunning as they appear in photos, set around a crystal-clear blue lagoon that’s simply breathtaking. Although we were initially concerned about the proximity to the airport, it ended up being no issue at all—it’s a peaceful, quiet spot. We loved the warm and welcoming airport transfers, which made our arrival stress-free. The beautifully appointed rooms were comfortable, and the well-equipped kitchen was a bonus for making homemade meals when we didn’t feel like eating out. Having an on-site scooter hire was fantastic—we were off exploring the island within minutes of landing! Cheran and her family gave us excellent recommendations for food, drinks, and activities, and they were always available to answer our questions with a smile. The bungalows were well-stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We left Tai Roto Bay with full hearts, feeling completely relaxed and rejuvenated. We can’t wait to return and will be recommending this beautiful boutique accommodation to anyone visiting the Cook Islands.

    The location right on the beach was perfect. Could walk from the bungalow straight onto the sand and into the beautiful blue water of the lagoon. We were there for seven nights for a fishing trip. The bungalows are basic but the bed was comfortable and clean. The balcony faces the sea and the sunset and were perfect to sit out on. Breakfast was delivered every morning- fruit, bread, jam and butter, juice and cereal and milk. The bungalows are perfect for their location and price. Look elsewhere if you want a more upmarket place to stay

    I had a wonderful time at Matriki Beach Huts. Riki and Matt were warm and friendly hosts who greeted me by name, were happy to help and made lots of great suggestions for my stay. The location is unbeatable, being right on the beach. The huts are great value for money and while they’re not super fancy, everything is clean and tidy with lovely touches like fresh fruit, flowers. I was comfortable with everything I needed. Their three cats are super friendly. The snorkelling from the beach is fantastic.

    Casual luxury is exactly what you get . Great location, great food , great service. Nothing was a problem. We spent 7 nights in a Beachfront Bungalow. Room 202 . Although all the bungalows look great and are located well it was worth the extra to be right on the beachfront. Having a beautiful breakfast included is fantastic and with either continental and / or full cooked al acarte it certainly sets you up for the day ! Don’t bother looking elsewhere, Tamanu Beach Resort is where you need to be 😊.Look forward to a return visit soon.
