Wow, Vaikoa Units is such a great place to stay! You are treated like family from the moment you arrive. Junior and Mama make sure you are taken care of and are very helpful. We really loved our stay here.

- we stayed in the large beach bungalow, it is literally on the beach! Basic but comfortable, and had everything we needed. It did get very hot in there during the afternoon and evenings though. The cold shower will help keep you cool.
- Junior will pick you up at the airport. They also can book lagoon tours for you.
- You can snorkel right off the beach in front of the bungalows. It is an excellent stretch of beach and amazing snorkelling too.
- there are kayaks to use and a great BBQ hut. We are almost all of our meals out here.

If you don't need super fancy accommodation then this is the place to stay. There are smaller rooms (still with a kitchen) closer to the road and two bungalows at the beach. I'm so happy we stayed here, we loved it and will be back!

I am just short of words for the beauty of this place. It really looks like what you see in photos and probably even better in real.. I stayed on one of the two beach front bungalows and it was just 20 steps or less to beach. The moment you arrive there you know that you are in paradise. Junior as a host is a great and very friendly and helps you with everything. It was very hot one the day just wish the bungalows had air conditioner or even some Pedestal fans..Apart from this it was really nice and great value for money ..i would definitely go back in future and recommend it to anyone who is looking for budget accommodation

I travelled to Aitutaki in September 2015 and stayed at Vaikoa for my first week on the island... And am so grateful I chose to do so! From the moment I arrived, the whole family (Terangi, Junior, Joel and Mama) made me welcome and helped me to settle in, Terangi very kindly ferrying me on her scooter to the local shop to buy some provisions. My room was comfortable and quiet, the bathroom and kitchenette clean, and the setting very peaceful. Sitting on the beach at sunset watching the reef herons wade along the shoreline; snorkelling there in the daytime amongst shoals of tropical fish; going to church with Mama on Sunday; sharing a celebratory meal with fellow tourist Martin and the Vaikoa family: I couldn't have wished for a more friendly place to stay. It was a great introduction to the island, and I'd thoroughly recommend Vaikoa to anyone planning to stay on Aitutaki. Many thanks for making me welcome and looking after me, and for providing such a lovely place to stay. Meitaki atupaka!
