Nautilus Resort

My daughter and I stayed at Nautilus Resort in early December 2024 in the beach front accommodation. The room was great, the bathroom was enormous, the private plunge pool was awesome, the seafood pasta was like no other, and the resort definitely has the best location on the island. My daughter said it was her best holiday ever; she didn't want to leave. We look forward to returning to Cook Islands and Nautilus Resort.

The Nautilus is a beautiful place to stay. Nice and quiet and clean. Everything is in walking distance. Just need more variety on the menu for the restaurant as you feel like your eating the same stuff everyday. Need more fresh fruit everyday. You need to get ideas for the menu of the Pacific Rarotonga. As they had an amazing menu specially for dinner.

Fantastic. First class. Absolutely brilliant

Excellent location, nice rooms and really enjoyed the sports equipment. Continental breakfast is fairly poor - runs out really quickly especially pastries like croissants. Cooked is awesome. Manager and owner were staying when we were there - excellent hosts. Resort staff mixed bag. Watersports gear was great.

We recently had our wedding at the Nautilus Resort in Rarotonga, and it truly was the best day of our lives. The entire planning process was stress-free and enjoyable thanks to the amazing wedding team—Flora, Sarah, Waka, and the owner Jane. The team went above and beyond to make us feel special. They even organized a rehearsal lunch the day before the wedding, complete with gorgeous floral decorations in the outdoor gazebo and a custom menu. On the day itself, their professionalism and organization were unmatched. Waka picked up my bridesmaids and me from our Airbnb and even arranged affordable transportation for our guests after the event. The food deserves a special mention—it was phenomenal. Nearly three months later, our guests are still raving about it! As food is such a significant part of Samoan and Māori culture, we were initially worried about quantity, especially since we had a lot of big eaters attending. To our delight, there was more than enough, with many going back for seconds and thirds. The quality and abundance of food truly exceeded all expectations. Overall, the Nautilus Resort gave us a day we will cherish forever. They captured every detail we hoped for and more, creating a seamless and unforgettable celebration. On the day, every single staff member was so attentive ensuring all our guests were well looked after. If you're looking for a dream wedding venue in Rarotonga, this is it. Thank you to the entire team at the Nautilus for giving us memories to last a lifetime! 🌺 You will always have a special place in our hearts.

The Nautilus resort was beautiful, well appointed, and has a very friendly staff. The restaurant was very stylish and the cocktails were delicious. The bungalows were so comfortable and the plunge pool was the perfect touch. I highly recommend and would definitely love to go back!!
