Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Cook Islands

Great place with a great view on the mountains! Muri lagoon south end was a 15min walk arriving at a nice, quiet cafe right at the beach. Our favorite spot Titikaveka (not even needed to bring a snorkel as you can just wade in and see amazing fish) was close (bus or car). That week in February was very hot and humid and we were cautious with mosquitos, so we closed doors ost of the time which made it a few times warm inside. Other than that the ventilation is great given the construction of the cabin and windows covered with mosquito nets. Amenities of the cabin are great, the bist is amazing! We had a superb week on Rarotonga!

Beautiful private home with beautiful pool , Clean comfortable and fully equiped . Lovely people and highly recommend.

We had a perfect stay at Shelley & Te Aramaʻs place. The house was the perfect size for my partner and I. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for cooking, and they made sure to leave lots of fresh bananas, coconuts, and lilakoi for our arrival. We landed at 1am, and our late check-in was very easy. Only a minute walk away from our favorite cafe, Soul Cafe. Mahalo nui loa, Shelley & Te Arama!

Moemoe is in a beautiful location just across from the beach and 3 restaurant choices, as well as a small, home veggie market. The yard has fresh fruit and nunbirds, which are lovely to watch from the lanai. Eileen is quickly responsive and helpful!

Loved staying here. Would stay here again. Host was super responsive and helpful. The property is super close to the shop, restaurants, car/scooter hire and to lagoon.

We had a wonderful stay at Amori Villa. The house is spacious, wonderfully decorated and well situated, with a short drive to a number of wonderful snorkelling beaches, town for groceries and anything else you could want. Our family absolutely loved our time here. Communication from the hosts was excellent and they were always eager to help and point us in the right direction. Thank you for an amazing stay! We hope to be back one day and would love to stay here again!

this place was absolutely amazing. would recommend to everyone. we had a great couple of nights right on the beach. great for snorkeling plus could use kayaks. awesome. thank you!

If you’re planning a trip to Rarotonga I highly recommend staying at Sharon’s. Located right on a beautiful beach and walking distance or a short bus ride to Muri where there is a beautiful lagoon and lots of restaurants. The house was beautiful and clean, and lots of touches like plenty of filtered water left for us which was greatly appreciated. Unfortunately we didn’t get to use the kayaks whilst we were there as the sea was rough after a storm, but I would definitely stay there again just so we could kayak and explore the reef off the property. Our little one loved wandering down to the beach in the evenings to look for crabs. The kitchen had everything we needed, with a shop and Villis burger joint across the road - best burgers ever! The Cook Islands Coffee co is located right next door with the most delicious coffee and pastries. Waking up to the view of the palm trees and sea was a pleasure every morning. We did not want to leave!

Place was just as you see in the photos. Beautiful view, great location up on the hill. House has everything you need and Rose was great at communicating throughout the booking and our stay. Would definitely stay here again

Jacqui’s place was fantastic! The location was amazing: just a quick drive from the airport, near (within a short or long walk) nice restaurants, bakeries, and coffee shops, but set far enough from the main road where it’s very peaceful and quiet. And it’s right on the beach! And on the west side of the island - the sunsets were amazing, and the stars at night were unlike I’ve ever seen! The unit itself was great: clean and modern with every amenity you could need. I highly recommend if you’re in Rarotonga. Worth every penny and then some! Thanks Jacqui!

Fantastic!! What more can we say..just a great quiet loacation and everything exceeded our expectations. Perfect spot to relax and reconnect with mother nature. Walking out the front door and being greeted by an amazing view of the lagoon would be one of our highlights. The accomadation was a nice size with modern appliances to cook meals if you desire along with a water filter. Eateries and a store 2 minutes walk. Both Sarah and Adam are wonderful down to earth hosts We would definately recommend ..

We came for a week with our daughters and had a lovely stay. The backyard was great to play in and the beach right there amazing for hunting for shells, coral and hermit crabs. Seeing whales from the deck each day was amazing too!

We had a wonderful stay at Carlos' unit-we stayed in the 2 bedroom downstairs.Set on a lush property, with massive garden at the front, large living areas (2 living areas inside) and a front patio and back patio! My 2 kids (9 and 6yrs) played endless games around the property and thoroughly enjoyed the space. We also enjoyed coffees on the front balcony surrounded by trees, birds and ever present chickens and roosters! It was quiet but well placed in the west of the island right next door to Edgewater resort where there are meal options and acitivities we could join. The walk to the beach/lagoon is only few mins, but reef shoes are a must - Carlos has kindly provided these along with snorkels etc.There were countless thoughtful touches, such as DVD's, board games, library of books, CD/AV/USB/phone connections (connectivity was not a problem!) Carlos also respected our privacy but was always around (and welcome) for a friendly chat - he knows his island home extensively.Hope to be back!

MM Studios catered to our needs. I travelled with a school friend in a unit equipped with a kitchenette — fully stocked, down to a lunch box for leftovers! Rubbish bags, dishwashing liquid, and laundry powder were all provided, which made things super convenient. The shower has incredible massage pressure — such a treat! There is hangers for dresses, a kikau broom to keep the verandah tidy, and plenty of thoughtful touches throughout. We appreciated the little extras like a selection of books to read and island pamphlets, which helped us plan our days and explore more of the area. It was really hot during our stay, but once we figured out how to work the fan, the mosquitoes stayed away. The provided snorkeling gear came in handy too. I ended up discarding one mask because it was torn, but the rest was great. We were also grateful for the personal transfer to the accommodation — it made arriving stress-free.

Lynn was an exceptional host. Thoughtful, responsive, and genuinely kind. From the moment we booked, communication was smooth and clear. She had everything perfectly prepared for our arrival, and it was easy to feel at home right away. The accommodation was spotless and well-equipped, and you could really tell that a lot of care had gone into every detail. Lynn was always quick to respond and happy to help with anything we needed, which made our stay even more relaxed. We truly appreciated her warm hospitality and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommended!😊🌺

This accommodation had everything I needed, I would definitely stay there again and recommend this to anyone else. I have no complaints. so private, just around the corner from muri Beach and night market. Very quiet are, tidy and clean. Thank you to the host for keeping an eye on my Father when I returned back to NZ. communication was on point. out of all the accommodation this one will have to be a A+++
