Aitutaki Lagoon Private Island Resort - Adults Only
10/10 Excellent
"Stayed 3 nights and wanted to stay longer. Our itinerary was 3 nights Aitutaki, 4 Raro. It was a relaxing getaway to celebrate my 50th birthday. Weather was perfect for April. No mosquitoes during our stay. I was worried because they seem to love me, but had no issues until we got to Rarotonga where I had gotten bit maybe 3 times so not terrible. For reference, I’ve been to Costa Rica where I came back with 20 bites over a week. In Yosemite, 30 bites over 3 days So 3 small bites over 8 days is not a big deal for me.
Back to the property. The staff is super friendly,
Acknowledges you by name and oh so helpful and genuinely kind.
We stayed in a beachfront room and all amenities you need. Breakfast was so good, fresh coconut juice every morning. Not much open for dinner while we stayed there, so dinner at the property our only option.
We kayaked to a nearby secluded beach/uninhabited island, took the Vaka Cruise (highly recommend), hiked up a viewing point and one day rented a scooter to see the entire island.
If you’re looking for michelin dining experience, this is not for you. If you’re looking for relaxing, amazing views, access to secluded beach and no kids around then you may love this place like we did. We will definitely come back.

"Pacific Resort was the perfect escape from our busy lives. Spotlessly clean and beautifully maintained gardens and property, we felt at ease from the moment we were greeted at the airport with freshly made floral leis. The food and wine list were well considered and varied, we dined within the resort for 5 nights without feeling the need to go eat elsewhere. It was quiet, tranquil, the pool was immaculate and inviting, and we appreciated the use of snorkels and kayaks for the week. The snorkeling in the lagoon right out from our Bure was a highlight for us. As a parting gift to ourselves for our wedding anniversary was a couples massage on our final morning as we waited for our airport transfer. The Spa ladies did a wonderful job. A special thank you to the restaurant staff who looked after us all week, and for the amazing flowers on our anniversary dinner. We cannot recommend this more highly, if you are looking for utter relaxation in a very unique part of the world. "
