We stayed in a lagoon view room at Tamanu for 5 nights. This is the most relaxing place on earth! We were there for our 10th anniversary and my birthday. Our hut was just amazing with a wonderful porch and great living room. This is absolutely the best snorkeling I have ever experienced (and we have snorkeled all over the... More

Having the beach front bungalow we were in heaven. A relaxing and private resort with a beautiful beach made for great snorkeling and kayaking over the reef. Amazing sunsets!! All the staff from the front desk to the house maids very friendly and efficient, we wanted to stay another week, and should have!!!!! Meals were great no need to try... More

Tamanu was a lovely place to stay in Aitutaki and we loved every second. We had a studio garden bungalow but, after arriving in the dark, woke to see that we had a lovely view of the lagoon and pool. Perfect to watch the sunsets from. It was the perfect middle-of-the-road accommodation, it might not have been the flashest most... More

Really enjoyed our trip at Tamanu Beach. The studio was more like a bungalow and had beach views. The restaurant served great food and was reasonably priced for the Cook Islands. The only negatives would be the roosters that woke us up extremely early every day and expensive and slow wifi. I think if you are paying $400 a night,... More

We really enjoyed our stay here, the beach was nicely groomed and with nice white sand. The snorkeling was one of the best spots on the island they have a giant clam directly in front of the resort. Look for the yellow boy off the beach. If your not a big snorkeler you only have to walk in to the... More

We had the beachfront bungalow which was idyllic, peaceful, magnificent etc etc. The accommodation was brilliant and well laid out with a double shower! The beach and water was perfect. Swimming in the lagoon was spectacular looking at all the different fish around the coral. You didn't need to use a snorkel, you could just look through the clear water.... More

We stayed in a 1 bedroom "hut" where the bedroom was air conditioned and therefore we could sleep properley despite very hot weather even for there!! We had a large lounge, an ensuite bathroom, a verandah and a view over the lagoon which was very beautiful especially at sunset. The restaurant served very good meals, especially the fish, although if... More

I'd like to be honest about this resort - no it is not the Pacific Resort or the Lagoon Resort, though it makes up for it with the friendly and helpful staff and the beautiful lagoon which is ideal if you are looking to snorkel around close by. The pools are fine - one with shelter and other not so... More

When we arrived at the resort we were a bit disapointed as the pictures of the pools and other areas on the website are not honest of the actual condition of the property. We are pool people and this is why we chose this property. One of the pools (which are both very small) lost water every day where the... More
