We came to Rarotonga after a hectic month touring New Zealand and we needed to relax and unwind. This was the perfect place to do it.

If you are looking for a buzzy and lively establishment with bars and music this is not for you.

this was our third time at Sokala, as ever utterly fantastic, didn't want to leave, saving our pennies for next time, Laurence and Susan as friendly and helpful as always, could not recommend higher.
