Magic Reef Bungalows

Our beach front bungalow was idyllic and the perfect location on Rarotonga. Just steps from the beach with a private outdoor shower and kitchen in a very quiet area. Simone, Jane and crew were so welcoming and went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Great restaurants a short beach walk away and perfect Cook Island sunsets made for a very memorable experience.

Loved the hosts most of all. They put you to ease and at home as soon as you walk in. Our room number on the front reception board had all our names and a printed personalised memo in our room of the things to know about the premises and house. The villas are artistically built and for someone like me, I could just sit and admire the construction for hours. Beach and swimming pool were awesome and the fact that the pool is open all night long was the best thing ever for us to cool off late in the night as many hotels/motels forget that it’s not practical often to be in a pool during the day due to strong sun. So much thought has been put in almost everything - the pool depicting a 16th century ship, its mast used as comms tower, it stern hosting a small viewing area along with a shallow pool (deeper pool further in). The villas have practical, aesthetically pleasing and ergonomically thought-out layout. Large fridge, free ice from nearby icemaker and the welcoming fruit platter made us all fall in love at first sight. Nothing I can fault them on. Although they have spared no expense in installing rather high-end expensive hardware ie hinges and door locks, the door locks are easily damaged and hard operate but with the place so safe, and with the owners around asking if you if you need anything else several times in a day, you don't need all that security either anyway ;) Best stay ever for me and my family to date. Can't wait to visit again!

We rented e-bikes and were able to get to town, dive shop and snorkling reefs just fine. I felt safe waking and biking along the roadsThere are 6 good restaurants within walking distance (15 min). Staff was very friendly and helpful. The bungalos are clean and well maintained. I enjoyed the garden, bungalo porch and beachfront hammock.
