This was our first accommodation when arriving in Rarotonga.. Booked very easily over the internet as it was close to the airport & main town.. When we arrived, we had a free upgrade because our room was full.. Room was very nice.. Own bathroom & kitchen.. Only thing was FREEZING cold showers.. Hadnt read any other reviews on this, so...

I do not understand some of the other reviews that say this place is dirty and the management is unfriendly. Adrienne was absolutely brilliant. Our flight arrived 1.5 hours late but she waited for us. She checked us in then took us around town and showed us the best places to go and advised us of what to do, I... More

I had one of the poolside rooms for a few days. It had a great little kitchen, bathroom & shower, etc which were totally adequate for budget accommodation. Yes, there are roosters nearby and barking dogs in the distance, just like everywhere else in Raro. And yes, the Raro airport is about 1km away but the jets only interrupted my... More

The first part of our stay we booked a pool unit, which was really nice and huge. The own kitchen is a pro if you travel on a shoestring. The second part we stayed in the main house, which was not that cozy. The kitchen was o.k., but not that well assorted and clean than the one in the pool... More

We stayed 8 nights at one of the bungalows by the pool and had no trouble with any of the other guests staying in the bungalows. We ended up becoming quite good friends with them. Yes there are roosters which may crow at odd hours, but there are roosters all over the island. After the first night, my partner slept... More

Ok, so we spent two and a half months travelling in the Cooks, and this, by far, was the worst place we stayed. And we are not "sensetives"- we stay in budget places, happy on a matress on the floor if the hostess is nice. But Tiare Village... Here´s why you should stay away: Firstly for keeping your health in... More

We spent a month staying at Tiare whilst volunteering on Rarotonga. Adrienne was really friendly, approachable and helped us sort out a lot of activities with discounted prices. We stayed in the bus which was clean and spacious for the three of us, and came with mosquito nets in every bedroom! We also had access to the bbq, pool and... More

Bad service and bad quality of rooms. You are pretty much on your own there and seems that things are not working that well. But, if you are a backpacker and do not mind about filthy rooms, then just go for it, prices are ok. They have a lot of roosters around there that make a loud noise almost all... More

Having read the other great reviews for Tiare Village we opted to stay here for our first couple of nights in Rarotonga as it sounded nice and was conveniently near the airport. It speaks volumes that we ended up staying there for the remaining 9 nights too! The prices are really low compared to other places on the island but... More
