My husband and I have just come back from staying at Royale Takitumu for 7 days and we are still very sad to be home. The property is just beautiful, and is cared for so well. We were lucky enough to secure one of the beach front villas and we are so thankful we did! Absolutely stunning scenery and waking... More

What makes Royal Takitumu stand out is the wonderful location on the edge of the beautiful Titikaveka lagoon. We spent 5 nights over New Year's and had a most relaxing time. The lagoon is pristine with an abundance of fish making snorkeling an accessible treat. The privacy, the lush gardens and the tranquility made this private accommodation the perfect hideaway....

We stayed for 5 nights in the garden studio during September. The studio was quite comfortable and very quiet, and the hammock in the garden in front was lovely. The kitchen was well equipped and the bathroom was fine. Although there is no beach view from this unit, the view of the garden was very nice, and just a short... More

Kia Orana aussie56 and thanks for your review of Royale Takitumu. We are glad to read that you enjoyed your stay in our Garden Studio. While many guests love the 'romance' of sleeping under a draped, canopy bed, you may be correct about the ceiling fan. We will have a close look at that. Thanks for your great review, and... More

Great location with stunning lagoon. Very quiet and romatic. Good sized rooms with traditional feel. Had an amazing wedding day on the beach (September 2011) with 45 guests. Nothing was an issue to organise. Great up keep of the place with gardener and cleaners out constantly. More
