This is our favourite spot on the island. We only saw a few people pass our accommodation per day – so you basically have the beach to yourself! The… read more accommodation on the lagoon is wonderful. The best views to wake up to each morning. Everything was clean and tidy. The rooms were serviced by lovely staff each day – if needed. Having your own pool was bliss. Best snorkelling right on your doorstep with snorkel gear provided. You can afford to pack light with the convenience of the laundry room. Steph is amazing and always there to help you. Would highly recommend this accommodation and would love to go back. More

  We had such a lovely week staying here with airport transfers, complementary hire car and breakfast shopping all ready in the fridge waiting for us. It was simply devine to… read more walk out into the water from our private patio or to kayak, SUP or just snorkel on the lagoon. The staff were very helpful in explaining and organising tours for us. We loved it so much we’ll be back.

  What a fantastic place to spend a family holiday. Situation is ideal and Steph and her staff really look after you from the moment you arrive until you leave. The… read more accommodation right on the edge of the lagoon has everything one could want and the individual pools beside the units are an added bonus. Would not hesitate to highly recommend this to anyone and would definitely stay again. Thanks Steph for organising everything you did… Murray & Jan, Auckland.

  Oh my goodness!! I hasn’t expected it to be THIS good!
Absolutely pristine bungalow, walk down the steps right into the lagoon.
I just can’t fault this place –… read more super friendly manager, brilliant staff, wonderful views, air conditioning and fans, as you would expect, full kitchenette, plunge pool for when you get hot, just everything you could wish for a hassle free holiday in paradise. Add to that supermarket and restaurants close by, use of bikes, paddle boards, kayaks, snorkeling gear wonderful!
When reading the tick boxes below, remember – this isn’t an hotel so most answers are ‘not sure’. But I am absolutely positive that this is a fab place to holiday in Rarotonga!

  Cannot recommend Sea Change Villas enough. Steph was great to deal with before our holiday had started – lots of helpful pre-arrival info sent though beforehand. She arranged transfers to… read more and from the airport for us too which was fantastic. Great location and lovely, clean, comfortable and well appointed accommodation – we stayed in one of the 2/3 bedroom 2 bathroom garden view villas with it’s own private pool and really appreciated the space, privacy and the daily housekeeping. Wonderful beach at the front of Sea Change for swimming and snorkelling and excellent couple of places to eat/drink and a supermarket within a 10 min bike ride (using the bikes provided) if you don’t have a car.

  Good location, would recommend getting your own vehicle. Great spot for snorkeling. Equipment available: bikes, paddle board, kayaks and snorkeling gear. BBQ and laundry available.… read more The host Stephanie was approachable, knowledgeable and very helpful. On arrival the complimentary food and alcohol in the fridge was most appreciated. Everything about the beach front villa was beautiful. The garden villa was clean and spacious but the only observation was that the bottom level with games room and 1 bedroom was musty: could be because of Covid lockdowns. We would have preferred a toilet or bathroom on that level too. Everything else was perfect and we would definitely stay again!

  Absolutely stunning villas on the beach. Cannot fault in anyway. Was great to be able to use the paddle boards. There’s also bikes you can use which came in handy… read more as we arrived on a Sunday and couldn’t get a rental car. Lovely restaurant about 2km down the road so was an easy ride with the best scenery along the way. Loved our stay and would recommend to anyone wanting a peaceful getaway.

  The perfect place for a family holiday. Nothing was to much hassle for Steph and the team. Beautiful resort, fabulous villa, our breakfast pack was a lovely touch, the bikes… read more were an added bonus which we used lots. Snorkeling equipment was good quality and the villas are near the turtle snorkeling area for the adventurous and confident snorkelers! The pool was perfect for a quick dip when it was too windy to snorkel.

  This review is very late, apologies. I set up an account just so I could write this review. My parents and my husband and I were fortunate enough to stay… read more at this place just before the lockdown on separate occasions. Loved it, just loved it.

We hired a red convertible and zipped around everywhere. Loved the stainless steel quality kitchen equipment, we prepared fresh fish (fish shop next to airport) and fresh fruit (markets and street vendors) every day. It was just a really wonderful time. Some of the reviews mentioned traffic noise, we didn’t hear anything, not sure how this is even an issue. You do however hear the waves crashing at night which is so peaceful and relaxing. We had a muddy outlook but the last day it all washed away revealing beautiful sands. The location is great, nice and peaceful, especially if you have a car. Drive up the road and you’ve got the Fruits of Rarotonga a lovely snorkelling spot. Drive the other way up the road (if you stand on the balcony and look to your right) is a passage and people do snorkelling with turtles there – so magical.

They give you some complementary wifi and breakfast supplies. (My parents didn’t know about the free wifi which is a shame as they aren’t very computer literate and I had warned them before they went that there wouldn’t be wifi based on other reviews) – this has obviously now changed. Loved eating breakfast and dinners on the balcony out the back – soooooooooooooooooo beautiful – and so many great eating options around the island in close driving proximity to the villas.

Beverley, Stephanie and Craig were great. We are pretty sure we were one of the last Aussies off the island before the borders closed and Craig even offered for us to take one of the pillows in case of a long layover in Auckland. We didn’t, but I should’ve as those pillows were lovely haha. Hope to come back one day. Thank you guys for a lovely holiday, we were lucky to get it in before lockdown 🙂 Give Rufus a cuddle for me.
