Guests reviews

RELAXATION IN THE SUN BY THE BEACH. For us Sunset Resort made a perfect week break away from our winter. Absolutely recommend the beach front unit which is self contained with microwave, 2 gas burners and good size fridge. Tropical breakfast included at the restaurant was great. Totally recommend and would enjoy returning here sometime.

POSITION PERFECT. All good, neat and tidy rooms, well maintained and serviced. The perfect location, also the food was good They organized scooters for us (which is the way to get around the island at your leisure). They are a must. Good bakery across the road, very handy for a snack. Room Tip: ocean view rooms are nice but not really needed as you are only 50 metres in from the beach in any room.

A LITTLE GEM. This resort offers excellent value for money. It is clean, comfortable,friendly and situated on the sunset side of the island. I have stayed here before and will certainly stay again when I go back to Raro. The beachfront studios are worth the extra.

Christchurch, NZ

A WONDERFUL TIME. Small size resort, great facilities, nice rooms, great location, child age restriction. Snorkelling gear and reef shoes available for use. My husband and I had a wonderful time staying at the Sunset resort. The gardens are beautifully maintained, and the beach front is great for snorkelling. Staff were friendly and helpful. The food at the Anchorage restaurant was very nice and we particularly enjoyed the Sunday evening BBQ, with the dances. The resort never seemed overly busy even though it was NZ school holidays and we could always go for a swim in one of the pools. We hired a scooter for more mobility on the island. We would definitely recommend this resort for people looking at having a relaxing time in Rarotonga.

Loved the fact that there were no kids running around. Pools were clean and so refreshing. Restaurant was fantastic, lovely food, great service, great cocktails and great prices. Room service was super. Staff were friendly and helpful. Loved being so close to town. Room had everything we needed and more. Beach furniture, snorkelling gear and reef shoes were great too. Loved this place and will be back again.
