We stayed in a garden premium room whihc while awaiting an upgrade was comfortable and pleasant. The upgrade programme they are working through is leaving rooms and units very well presented. The outside shower accessed from the unit was a first for us and we think it is a great idea. The surroundings and gardens help to make one feel... More

Having stayed at this hotel 4 out of the 5 visits to Cook Islands since 1994, through thick and thin the service and friendliness of the staff has always surmounted any climatic inconvenience, such as the total loss of the swimming pool, restaurant and bar to a typhoon, and previously the burning down of the original restaurant. The sand between... More

I have just returned from 5 nights staying at Manuia Beach. The hotel has just recently been taken over by new owners who have started to make improvements that will only enhance a place that has alot going for it.

The new owners have done a great job in their refurbishment of this place. The rooms are great and the enclosed outside shower and the little garden was great. We spent a lot of time in the infinity pool and relaxed afterwards under the umbrellas with cold drinks and nibbles from the bar. Feeling the sand under your feet in... More

Wow, what a setting for a wedding. We stayed at Manuia for a week prior to the wedding of our daughter, and were very impressed with the whole experience. Although we stayed in one of the rooms yet to be refurbished, it is quite clear that the new owners are on a mission to totally reinvent the whole resort. Our... More

The room is really nice, large, clean and well decorated. The place itself is nice. Good location. Nice beach with sunset. Average restaurant in the Cook islands. Gastronomy is not The best in there. Scooters rental just nearby, walking distance. Staff very friendly and helpful, I got a late checkout for free. I guess they realized I was not the... More

Absolutely fantastic place. The new owners are really doing a great job. The location is second to none with breathtaking sunsets and possibly the best beach on the island. The new refurbished units look amazing and the super friendly staff could not do enough for us. Cant wait to go back and stay again!

It was a nice place, very quiet and private, we didn't really see much of anyone that stayed there apart from meal times. A bit overpriced i think for their rooms. Service was good and room was always cleaned and loved the staff there :) Breakfast was average, dinner and lunch menu was very delicious, happy with our meals. The... More
