This hotel is really pure South sea, the cook's are the ursprünglichste island in the South Seas-the french chef offers a great value, adjusted to the South Seas with french charm. A comfortable hotel of the first quality. the room with original cook island details, but also minimalist decor. The service was above average-you must stay here again. it is also Aitutaki, and Atiu to visit, so that one has three separate islands. Read more

Location

The beachfront bungalow is a dream, everything you need is there and much more. - in October 09
It matched exactly what we were expecting from the Cook islands: white sandy beach literally three steps away from the beachfront bungalow's front door, crystal clear water where you can actually swim (the water is not as shallow as in other areas), delicious food (the Chilean chef Carlos mixes traditional and international ingredients perfectly), a stylish room and least but not last, amazing people.

When we got tired of lounging about reading, we simply stepped off the porch, took 10 steps across the sand, and waded directly into Muri lagoon for some of the best snorkelling I've encountered in many years of travelling.

Gastronomy
- in July 10
Food was DELICIOUS really great - desserts were my favourites though - I still dream of the chocolate souffle, but they had a good mix of salads and other foods too they want to be seen as fine dining - which they certainly were, but that did mean they didnt do chips (but you could go to other places for that) Will get the hubby to put up some of our pics as proof! - in July 10

) A word of warning: Portions are HUGE on European standards with appetizers the size of your average main course in the UK, but the food is delicious with Chef Carlos harnessing the freshest local ingredients in dishes that showcase his own Latin American culinary spin.
