We loved this place. We got upgraded to beachfront apartment and it was lovely and quite private. Only 10 steps from our room to the beach. Roosters are noisy if you stay in the rooms near the pool. The staff are really helpful and the bar for happy hour cocktails with kimi and ana is fab. The food is not... more

Staff were very helpful and greeted us with flowers at Raro airport. They were happy to organise transport options for us. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable. The pools were great, and the restaurant was clean and served great food. Located on a lovely beach with hammocks and deck chairs for guests use. more

I had always wanted to go to the Cook Islands and in particular Aitutaki was a dream for me. We had planned on staying in Rarotonga for a couple of days (either side of our trip to Aitutaki) After endless research on Trip Advisor, I had decided to book us into The Sunset Resort as it was in my price... more

We arrived in Rarotonga after a wonderful flight from LA and were greeted at the Airport by Aunt Kimi...with her infectious smile. We had stayed at the Rarotongan Sunset resort 14 yrs ago and loved it and although its been renovated since, the warmth and hospitality has not changed. We had a great beachfront studio which opened up to a... more

Spent 5 wonderful nights. Food from restaurant was beautiful. Staff provided excellent service. Nothing seemed too much trouble. Would love to go back and stay in one of the beachfront units. Visited the Rarotongan as my parents/brother were staying there. It was dirty, staff were unhelpful, emails sent to my brother were delivered to the honeymoon suite 2 days after... more

We chose Sunset after looking at reviews and pricing for all other hotels in Rarotonga; for the money Sunset looked like the best option. As soon as we arrived I knew it was. We were picked up from our midnight flight by the lovely Kiki and shown to our poolside studio room, everything was ready despite the late arrival and... more

We felt so relaxed the entire time we planned our wedding. The staff at Sunset Resort did everything right and were so well organised! From helpful pre-arrival information and travel information to endless smiles and help during our stay, the staff surpassed our expectations. Combined with a perfect location on the beach but close to town and the airport, two... more

This was a reasonably solid hotel but I could not find anything special about it. It was not bad either and the food was quite ok. I found it a bit expensive for what it offered. more

Just got home from 7 nights at the Sunset Resort which we were very happy with.  Its handy to eating places that are only a short walk from the resort and the on site restruant is also good to eat at.  The beach is lovely with good snokelling right at your front door.  We had a poolside studio which was... more

After two weeks in Rarotonga and Aitutaki, I had an opportunity to stay at the Sunset Resort for three nights before headin back to Vancouver. I was tired and ready to come home, to be honest. But when I got to the Sunset Resort, my mood changed and I was so pleasantly surprised at this great accommodation! All the staff... more
