Highly recommended - this is a quiet, beautiful location overlooking the lagoon and ocean, with only 2 villas and a restaurant on the property. Our villa was well-appointed, and very comfortable - the ocean breezes blew through the rooms and the fans overhead meant the temperature was always pleasant. It was an easy stroll down the driveway and over the... More

Villas are a really good size must be around 100sq metres, fully equipped and very clean. Good for groups as each Villa has completly seperate bathrooms and bedrooms. The pool is also excellent. It's a pity about the one negative review as I really don't see how it is justified as we experienced none of the issues raised. Make sure... More

We hired both villa's for our families and had our wedding in the garden. We can not say enough about how amazing our hosts were. They went out of their way to make our day perfect. They arranged extra pots of flowers for the garden and then placed them in the garden in the rain. Holger and Sven are brilliant... More

If you would like a place to chill out then Back Rock Villas is for you. My 21 yr old son and I stayed for just on a week, during this, the supposed cyclone season. The weather has been almost perfect and we have enjoyed our stay tremendously. The Pool here at Black rock Villas is exceptional and we lost... More

We (4 adults & 1 child) stayed at Black Rock Villas on the last night of our 10 day holiday following a trip to Aitutaki. We were greeted by wonderful hosts, who while serving a full restaurant (open Sat/Sun only) of hungry guests, managed to ensure we settled in. As the restaurant was fully booked, we were waitered on in... More

We stayed at the Black Rock Villas again this February for 3 weeks, and again it was just perfect. Mieke, Holger, Sven, Toru and of course Lucy made our stay so enjoyable. It was a good season for fruit, there was so much of it that we couldn't eat it as fast as it fell from the trees. We rented... More

We stayed at Black Rock Villas for just under a week and had a wonderful time here. We were in Rarotonga for our wedding and had a large number of guests visting from Australia and NZ. The villas were perfect for entertaining. The villas were spacious and clean with great amenities. A home away from home. The pool was gorgeous... More

From the beautiful villas to the prestine pool, there really was nothing more a holiday maker would want. We stayed a week at the villas and had the best of both worlds; home away from home as well as the feeling that you were in a place of sanctity. And if that wasn't enough- you are 5mins from town should... More

We stayed a week and totally enjoyed every minute, even when it was raining the owner/manager sven was a wealth of local information and knowledge, and even had a huge DVD collection, snorkelling gear and board games for the kids, all free of charge. The villas (only 2 on the property) were clean and well appointed with spectacular sunset views
