We had an 8 hour layover between flights from Aitutaki and LAX in late April so since it was Saturday and they roll up the sidewalks in town we booked a room at the Aquarius. The Aquarius is a bare bones, no frills establishment but is clean, has a restaurant and bar, is oceanfront, and is directly accross the street... More

We stayed at Aquarius for a 'short' night waiting for the ridiculously timed flights into and out of Raro. (1230 and 0130 respectively) We stayed in an Oceanview room and found it clean, tidy with tea/coffee facilities. Breakfast was basic but all you need sometimes (cereal toast etc) Staff were happy, and friendly we had no problems with anything about... More

This place is great for what it is. What it is, is difficult to explain, but I'll try. It's cheap accommodation right next to the airport. When you’re in a bind, this place is perfect. It isn't a resort... Although the restaurant was nice, the pool was great, and the food was great too. The reality is, many flights from... More

After staying on one of the outer islands for two and a half weeks - visiting family, the Aquarius Rarotonga was a breath of fresh air!!!! My family and I (8 persons) had a 14 hour wait for our flight back to NZ, so having the convenience of a two/three minute walk between the hotel and the airport was great!!!... More

Nice little place, it was quiet when we rocked up for a dinner for 6 people, service I felt really slow and average range of food on the menu. We were never asked how our night was going or if we needed any help or have questions, Please know we only went for dinner however my niece school from Auckland... More

Excellent = IF you're stuck waiting to catch your next flight. This is what I did while waiting 11hours to catch my flight. They offer short-term stay in their 'dormitory' bunk bed style like a camp. This is newly renovated, so it's clean. Likewise for the toilet IN the dormitory, it is very clean (not the same as the photo... More

There is hardly a better place if you come back from the outer islands and want to spend another one or two nights on Rarotonga. It's a two minutes' walk from the entrance to the airport! The view from the large windows looks like a picture of a beach on the wall. No swimming or snorkling in the sea, but... More

Very convenient place to stay as it is just across from the Airport, especially if you have to fly to an outer island like Aitutaki the next day and you want to rest the night, dorms are only $30. It has a bar, restaurant, pool, it's right by the beach but not for swimming in but to view. The Island... More

I walked into my room and I know it was a budget hotel, I really had a problem. I am not complaining for me, but I am letting you know so that you dont send anyone else there!!! I dont think the bathroom/toilet floor had ever been washed, had to put a towel down on the floor, there was a... More
