Our family of 9 adults and 2 pre-teenagers stayed at Avana Waterfront Apartments for 2 weeks during the December holidays. The manager, Reuben, was a perfect host and stopped by every day to check on the guy's fishing luck and to offer to take us on adventures like snorkeling out to the point, kayaking to the outer island, and showing...

We loved our 8 days at Avana Waterfront Apartments. The pool is saltwater chlorinated and is a lovely temperature - our 9 year old practically lived in the pool. The managers keep the gardens and units absolutely immaculate. Desiree was just wonderful with giving us fresh fruit, servicing our apartment and helping us out when we had lost our camera.... More

A group of 17 of us, from grandparents to little ones, virtually took over Avana Waterfront Apartments, occupying 4 of the 8 units for a week, and loved it. The apartments are well appointed, each with a slightly different layout, depending on the number of bedrooms (2 or 3) and floorplan. The master bedroom upstairs facing the lagoon is wonderful...

We have just had a great holiday with our extanded family at AWA and are delighted with our choice of location and accomodation. Great place to stay for a family holiday, easy access to beach and safe swimming and the grandchildren just loved getting out of bed each day to dash along the jetty to feed the beautiful tropical fish...

Our family stayed for a week, along with friends & their children, from NZ. We had a very relaxing family holiday. The BBQ at night by the pool was great. Location is good - not far from town by scooter and close to the good snorkeling spots. The kids enjoyed the kayaks and snorkeling just out from the jetty. Jumping... More

We enjoyed taking the kayaks out on the lagoon. It is easy and interesting to kayak to the nearby islands where you can swim on your own little beach. There are lovely walks on the same islands as well. Our studio apartment is big and well fitted out with a very comfortble king size bed. The apartment has all the... More

We stayed for one week at the Avana waterfront in the three bed apartment. It was and excellent stay. There were some problems with wasps in our room and a leaking dish washer, but the rest of stay was great. Mark, the local guide from Canada, took care of our questions. We had a great view. The location was perfect.... More

The studio room we rented was lovely and clean, and really roomy, with everything we needed, plus more, including a beautiful welcoming bowl of fresh tropical fruit, yum. The view from our deck was gorgeous, looking straight out onto... More

Avana is situated in a beautiful spot right on the lagoon. The rooms were spacious and lovely with everything you need in them. We really enjoyed the lovely big bowl of tropical fruit. You cant beat Rarotongas fruit and coconuts. Yum. It is right on the waterfront. Enjoyed looking at all the tropical fish off the private jetty straight out... More
