Top Tapere of Vaimaanga Hotel Reviews

Club Raro Resort – Adults Only

8/10 Good

"…………….zz"

Lagoon Breeze Villas

10/10 Excellent

"It was a great stay for a week in a quiet, clean and roomy 1 bedroom villa. The staff were friendly and helpful, the grounds were well cared for and the breakfast was delicious. We borrowed a kayak and life jackets, all in good order and complimentary. You should definitely stay here. (3 adults from Australia)"

The Edgewater Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"Resort is great. Just know that while they list having 24 hour airport shuttle, this is blatantly false advertising. They have no shuttle. They will be happy to direct you to a cab for $25 per person, oh also they only take cash. If you didn’t bring NZE cash, there is an ATM handy, but expect a long line for the one ATM. After a long travel day, delayed flight, 90 minutes to get through customs, this unexpected extra $100 for the 4 of us and extra wait for the ATM was very frustrating. Also plan on $25 per person back to the airport, and yes it is under 10 min drive. The resort itself was great, the free breakfast is very basic, cereal, toast, fruit, mini muffins. Other options are available for purchase. Overall, can be a great experience, just go into it knowing what to expect getting there from the airport."

Te Manava Luxury Villas

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location - a short walk to the Nuri night markets, which you can do along the beach. We were met personally by the manager Ana who explained everything to us, and checked in during our stay to make sure we had enough coffee, towels, etc. Very good amenities in the rooms. Highly recommend."
