“Nice, but don't expect great service”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 May 2012 NEW

We only stayed with Crown for 2 nights to finish off our holiday after returning from a week at The Pacific Aitutaki Resort, (which by the way is a MUST do) and The Little Polynesian for 5 nights in Rarotonga (Both AMAZING resorts) but it was long enough to get a feel for the place. Unfortunately we didn't get off... More

Whilst we were not guests at the Crown Beach Resort, we came by for cocktails to watch the beautiful sunset and to have dinner. Excellent 2 for 1 specials on their cocktails during certain times and ideal location to sit down, relax and soak up the beautiful scenery. Service was also fantastic. Only thing that I feel needs improvement was... More

We spent 7 glorious days at Crown resort. Our courtyard pool suite accomodation was spacious and of the highest quality and we loved our private pool and the turn down service every night. The resort is right on the beach and even the staff at a different resort told us that Crown has the most beautiful gardens on the island.... More

We stayed at the Crown Beach resort for 9 nights. The location is stunning, staff are very friendly and attentive, food amazing and everything is so relaxed. Just as it should be for such a holiday. No wonder they call this place Paradise.
