We just returned from our first visit to the Cook Islands! We got married at the Aitutaki Lagoon Resort and Spa, and could not have asked for anything more of our wedding day. The Resort made us feel so special during our entire visit. It was such a stress-free process- which is how every wedding should be. Everything fell into... More

This hotel has the most beautiful setting you can expect on the island. It is just breathtaking. If all you want is a great view, a nice beach and complete relaxation this is it for you. We stayed in the Premium Beach Bungalow which I thought was really nice although the bathroom needed an upgrade. But then again it was... More

We went to Aitutaki for our honeymoon and it was amazing! the pictures don't do it justice... the colour of the lagoon is out of this world. The resort is on its own private island, you must take a short ferry across to the resort and is set up as individual bungalows and they are all so romantic! We loved... More

This place has without a doubt the best lagoon on the island! If you are looking for a great beach, water and lagoon then this is the place to stay hands down! We got a chance to visit the Pacific Resort and their lagoon does not at all compare to the lagoon at ALR&S! The food here however was not... More

I spent 10 nights in a beautiful beach front bungalow. The views overlooking the lagoon are amazing. During our stay, my fiancé and eloped and married on the beach. Mani, the events co-ordinator made the whole day so easy and it was an absolute dream come true. The location was breathtaking. I did not have to worry about a single... More

Me and my partner arrived from raro and decided the only way to see Aitutaki was to stay on the water SO the overwater bungalows were the go... They have an amazing view from the king size bed out over the decking to the lagoon and the next motu.. The welcome from "James BOND"with his conch shell shenanigans once you... More

The location and beaches are to die for. This was our second visit and we went there for the water. You can swim all day in the beuatiful deep blue clear water straight off the beach. It really is just like the pictures. We had one of the upgraded beach front rooms with an outside shower and it was lovely.... More

Great location and lovely atmosphere, helped by warm greeting and stunning weather. Not easy to get to town unless you hire a scooter, and therefore limited eating options. However food was ok and staff typically laid back and no rush. More

The location was breathtaking. That really was the only thing that saved the place. The gift shop was packed with items, all made in China! The staff on a whole were completely ineffectual and disinterested EXCEPT for Alvin (kitchen) and Tak (ferry driver). The food was horrible. I was gobsmacked that a token to wash clothes in a broken washing... More

Have just returned from a week on Aitutaki, my husband booked us a romantic week's break at the Aitutaki Lagoon Resort. Upon arrival we were shown to our beach front accommodation as we had been 'upgraded' from the garden bure (according to our offer from Air NZ Travel). The beach front is actually not the beach but the channel between... More
