Book Arutanga hotels

A beautiful boutique complex of 8 villas in the best area of Aitutaki. Our villa had lovely views and everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The staff were so welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable, giving us advice and information about local places of interest and activities. We chose Etu Moana for its focus on sustainability and personal service. Highly recommend.

The rooms are soundproofed and in 6 nights I never heard my neighbors. The units are only about 2 years old so everything is in good shape. I did a lot of food prep rather than eat in the restaurant. The kitchen is well set up. There are stores down the road. The beach is lovely and had various lounges, tables with umbrellas and beach towels are supplied. Each unit has its own drying rack so you can get things dried pretty quickly. Laundry service is available. A/C was good although I mainly used the fan. I'm from a hot climate so the temperature was fine. My only complaint was some really noisy people with the poorly brought up children who were oblivious of others. My room was poolside and I enjoy seeing kids and families having fun. Most parents hush their kids if they're getting out of hand. This family didn't do that. It was culturally normal for them to be loud. I did go out and put an end to the three sons chasing a mother hen and her chicks. Resort Tava'e might consider an adults only area.

Amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing

I wanted a do nothing holiday. This was a brilliant choice, quiet, pool and lagoon was perfect, the local restraunts and cafe handy, just very insistant on reservations. With bicycle, scooter and car hire available getting out and about was easy. Wasnt prepared for the self catering option at the Retreat and the local stores provided options for dining in. Would stay again, just with better insect repellant.

Beautiful resort!

The location is awesome. You can’t help but relax here. The room is excellent, some of the best I’ve ever had. Well appointed with everything you need, super clean and roomy. The staff are great, and the food amazing. Highly recommend. PS a special thank you to James who made our stay just perfect
