    The early wake up calls from the dogs and roosters in the neighbourhood, however we got use to it.

    Location, property felt homely.

    Nothing! Everything was amazing!

    Absolutely loved our stay in this beautiful home. Had everything we needed and more. The rooms were big and spacious. Beds were comfortable and we couldn't wait to come back and relax after busy days of exploring the island. The outdoor deck area and pool is where we spent most of our time. Kitchen had everything we needed to make ourselves meals. Forgot to take photos 🤦‍♀️🤣 Will definitely be booking again for our next holiday.

    Beautiful relaxing atmosphere, close to town and the airport. The pool was clean and lovely. The patio area was a great social area for visitors, a big table and plenty of seating. I would without a doubt stay here again and recommend it to others.

    Absolutely nothing!!! Ok, I won't lie, maybe the crowing roosters and barking dogs early hours of the morning, but it beats the sound of sirens and hovering helicopters, lol. This is island life, not Eve and Sandys doing. The biggest thing we didn't like was leaving 😪. Meitaki ma'ata, Sela xxx

    We loved absolutely everything! From booking to departure. The home is beautiful with everything we require and plenty of space to cater for our big whānau of 10. The water station is so close, and there's plenty of icecube makers in the freezer. I kept in touch with the wonderful owner, Sela, throughout our stay, who responded quickly. Our 9m granddaughter settled into the new surroundings fabulously. The pool was perfect for everyone, and the beach was so close. It was great having staple pantry needs left in the cupboard from previous guests, and we left what we didn't use for the next guests instead of having to throw away and waste. Basically, when not if we return to Rarotonga, we will return to Eve and Sandy's if Sela would have us back. Kia manuia x

    We prefer keeping our room doors closed at night for better sleep, but found that 2 out of the 3 rooms lacked windows, causing them to heat up rapidly. However, during the day, the abundant wall-to-wall sliding doors in every room provided excellent ventilation.

    This beautiful home offered a tranquil and serene escape during our brief visit. Impeccably maintained, it boasted an abundance of towels and featured both electric and ceiling fans throughout. The pristine pool, with its refreshing, crystal-clear waters, overlooked a picturesque mountain vista.

    Difficulty finding the house initially. Including a map would be super helpful as the address markings and directions weren't very clear.

    We loved that the property was close to the main township and the airport. The pool and deck were the main highlights for us and the size of the kitchen. Having 2 bathrooms was gold for our crew.

    the pool got dirty and there were no chemicals available to keep it clean, we couldn’t use it for 2 days until it had been emptied and refilled. the owner did try to fix the problem as soon as we let her know so appreciated that, just really needed the pool in the heat!

    Just a couple of small niggles. The directions to reach the property were very detailed, however the street we were supposed to turn on was not signposted. There was a similar named road that was signposted, but we ended up going around in circles for a bit. Took a lot to get used to the roosters and the dog fights - especially at night! The toaster was not working - had to be held down manually. Apologies as I was intending to buy a new toaster for the home but ran out of time.

    Our stay was exceptional, exactly what we were looking for. We have a disabled son, and the property was perfect for our needs. The swimming pool was an added bonus, together with the frequent visits from Bros (cat) and the 2 dogs. The host was friendly and made contact twice to ensure everything was going well - very much appreciated.

    Nothing. We have no complaints. Don't mind the parking dogs at night. Its normal and they are your security guards. After all you don't go there to sleep.

    The location is so close to everything. The house is beautiful inside and surrounded by beautiful hibiscus. Picked one everyday to put on my ear. The home is also equipped with everything that you will need while in Rarotonga. We made good use of the mat on the beach and mozzie repellent. Everything is there.
