Tanias Island Getaway 2
Both homes have covered verandas and out door seating, thru the ranch sliders the homes open up to spacious dining and living areas, with full modern kitchens at the back. To the sides are the two bedrooms and bathroom.
Set on a massive enclosed section and on a very quiet road, Tanias offers a big yard for the kids to play in and ample covered veranda space for the grown ups to watch them (whilst sipping on a G and T).
100 metres away is the islands top coffee house and roaster (Neil Dearlove), and also Rarotongas best baker (Reuben Dearlove his son)... mental note fresh baked croissants and bread every Monday, Wednesday and Friday (be there early).
The immediate coastline where Tanias is situated is rugged, and although not ideal for swimming (its corally) is perfect for up close rock pooling and reef fishing.
Tanias is less than a five minute drive to Muri Lagoon, and all things Muri (beaches, resturants and hotel bars) and five minutes to the main township of Avarua (when there arn't road works).
For one or two families looking for a high value/comfort level, Tanias will "check the box". Special conditions: The house has a Bluesky wifi hotspot, to access it you need to open your browser, it will default to the Cook Islands BlueSky page, in the lower left corner, you’re able to by a data package (they’ll send you a username and password). Its quite expensive…

Fantastic location, everything we needed. property was clean, didnt meet host however communiction with information for check in was great.Our 7th visit to the island will always be back.
We had a great time staying here. Good location and had everything we needed. Kitchen well equipped for cooking and everything easy to find. We will definitely be back. Communication and information Eddie sent before arriving was fantastic and made the trip stress free
Well built and well equipped units in a good location close to a shop and petrol station. Only drawback is the closest decent swimming area is about 5km away so having a car is a good idea. A small bakery that is within easy walking distance has the best croissants on the island.
Excellent property close to great convenience store and burger bar. Walking distance. Tania's is a nice spacious unit with all amenities needed for a great stay. You can park right at the door. Fantastic shower. Property is off the main road and down a right of way so very little road noise. Next to Paws and Claws so no dogs barking all night
Communication was good with the hosts, replied within 24hrs. Keys easy to find with a lock box.Location just down the road from a well stocked petrol/shop and villis takeaway, best cheeseburgers!The property does have a lot of animal visitors, chickens, dogs, piggs and cats. Easy to find property and very close to Muri beach.Doesnt come with aircon, but did have a couple of fams. Has al the amenities of a house. Overall a good stay for the price, we would stay here again.The chickens, cats dogs amd pigs
Such a beautiful home that my family and I could call our home away from home for 10days. House was well equipped and we throughly enjoyed calling it home for the duration of our stay. Would a thousand times over recommend and would definitely be booking again on our next visit to Rarotonga. Meitaki Ma’ata Eddie x
Excellent accomodation very spacious. Air con would have been a bonus but several fans provided. A couple of problems at No.1 as gas oven didn’t work bit Eddie kindly provided his own barbecue for me and also a brand new microwave oven. Excellent communication
Great place to stay, perfect for kids clean and safe 👍
Really good definitely recommend

Great little hideaway.
Cannot recommend this place highly enough. Quiet and private it is still only a 5 minute drive or 20 minute stroll down the inner road to Muri Beach.
This is an exceptionally well equipped house that comes with brand new appliances and furniture, so does not have the headaches of some. It has large bedrooms with very comfortable beds, everything you need and more in the highly functional kitchen, a clean fresh bathroom with washing machine and both solar and electric hot water.
We stayed here for a month and found the place wanting in nothing.
The photos do not do this gem justice.
We will be booking Tania’s cottages next time we are in Raro.
Thanks for everything Eddie.

Very comfortable, clean and well thought out accommodation. Nice quiet location back from main road (not counting ubiquitous and atmospheric roosters). Easy access to bus service as well as nice walks off back road.
