Absolutely loved our stay here. The villas are modern and clean. Only 6 in the complex so does not get overcrowded. Daily breakfasts delivered to our villa were superb - fresh fruit, muesli and even choc croissants!!! Beach few steps away, lovely pool, and spa. Washing machine and dryer if you need it, night markets short walk away. Poko and Nick were fabulous hosts. Poko even allowed us a late checkout which was greatly appreciated. Our stay was not long enough and cannot wait to return.

great location in muri
This place is really nice, people are great and the facilities top rate. The only reason for a 4 not 5 is that it is small and if it is full than you are vulnerable to the antics of your neighbours. We had 2 nights of the 3 we stayed here with only one other couple and the place was wonderful. The 3rd we had a group of 10 mates arrive keen to party which was fun to watch for one night but would have frayed a little if we had stayed on. The good news though is the rooms are very quiet even when it is going off round the pool! If you want privacy seek an upstairs room. If you want direct access to the pool go downstairs.

Luxury in the perfect location
If you like small, private holidays with all of your home from home comforts (possibly with a little luxury thrown in too) then Te Vakaroa Villas is perfect. Conveniently located for the night markets, boat trips and cycle hire you can be as active or as inactive as you want Nick and Poko have it covered

Perfect location right on the beach.
If you are planning a vacation in the Cook Islands this is the place to be, right on the beach in beautiful Muri lagoon. Our villa was well equipped and spotlessly clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. Even though we rented a car in advance we were met at the airport, helped with our luggage and guided to the villa. There is plenty of entertainment and good restaurants in easy walking distance. All in all a perfect Cook Island experience.

Awesome Locations. Wicked Pool!
We just spent 4 nights here on our mini break. The staff are friendly and helpful. We had a 1 bedroom villa and it was beautiful. We were underneath a 2 bedroom villa and we could here the people above us walking around so if you are a light sleeper it may pay to pack some ear plugs just incase. I was worried about the pool being really cold after reading the reviews but it was beautiful. It is cold but perfect on a hot sunny day to cool off. The spa pool was great and nice to relax in while the sun goes down. Breakfast was nice and light. It was perfect for the 2 of us to have a mid winter break and would highly recommend.

Lovely villas with sea views
Lovely villas with great views on Muri beach, clean and well kept accommodation, walking distance to nice restaurants For such expensive accommodation, charging for every little extra is a real turn off (i.e. transfers from airport despite it being only 20 mins and sharing with 3 other people, paddle boards, WIFI etc etc) Breakfast was good some days and not on others......cheap sliced bread when they are so close to the lovely bakery was a massive let down!!! Also, I think they should increase the 12 year old limit - we had teenage girls shouting from pool to balcony every day with no consideration for other guests trying to enjoy the break

Faultless
From our warm welcome at the airport Te Vakaroa Villas met all of our expectations. A beautiful, relaxing setting with luxury accommodation in immaculate and clean condition. This is not a big resort with everything that entails - it is a small, luxury property with just 6 very fine Villas. We enjoyed the ability to eat out effortlessly at Sails restaurant next door (or other equally good places very close by) along with the option to cook 'at home'. Relaxing on the large day bed looking over the lagoon was my idea of heaven. The convenience store 100 metres away, open from 6 am to 10 pm supplied all the essentials (eg beer for just $2.50 per Heineken). We hope to return in the near future and thank all of the friendly, efficient and unobtrusive team at Te Vakaroa Villas for a wonderful holiday.

Amazing hotel, staff disappointing
Amazing villa in fantastic location. However, we were disappointed by the attitude of staff especially in a hotel of this price bracket. The receptionist repeatedly failed to acknowledge us. on the 2 occasions we had minor requests (ie to ask for a snorkel and to ask what time our hotel transfer was), she did not even give us a hello when we stood in front of her( no she was not busy at all, apparently giggling at an email) and the owner was unapologetic about the hot tub not working, one ofthe reasons why we chose to stay here in the first place. It is an amazing property but maybe the staff have become complacent. There's no excuse for bad service and poor manners especially for the price!!!

Great location
Slight delay with airport pick up. Was given an upgrade to the 2 bedroom villa. Washing machine and dryer available in room to use. The surrounds is well looked after. Staff were very helpful and polite. The location of Te Vakaroa Villas is perfect. 2 min walk to Sails restaurant and Pacific resort. Night markets were on Wednesday and Thursday nights. Anz and Westpac ATMs within walking distance. Such a convenient location tucked away from the road. Had a nice relaxing short stay.

Great location for the perfect honeymoon. Super location on Muri Beach with lots of good restaurants in walking distance. We agonised for some time over the many options in various locations on the island, but in the end we were so glad we chose Te Vakaora. We loved everything about our stay.

My stay at Te Vaka Roa
I was surprised that no one ever vacuumed. There was dust in the corners from weeks ago and the kitchen cabinets felt sticky. I was also a little disturbed by the nearby kayak rental and restaurant which would start beating drums accompanied by drunkard yells late at night or smash glass bottles for recycling purposes at 7 am. Nevertheless, the villa was beautifully furnished and gave a sense of luxury with a magnificient view of the lagoon but given that fact of cleanliness I wouldn't give it 5 stars.

Te Vakaroa Villas - small oasis just by ocean
Extremly nice experience to stay at Vakaroa Villas - good service, comfortable rooms, beautiful position, free extra services like transportations snorkles and rent of kayak. We stayed a period of 7-12 november and even with rainy moments we could enjoy by watching films or just outside from balcony. Absolutely worth of money.

The complex throughout is the best, great facilities, small, quiet, great service, tropical breakfasts everyday. Just the perfect getaway from a busy city life. The staff were extremely attentive and nothing is too much trouble. As for location, you can just wander down the beach to anyone of the many restaurants which look out over the lagoon. The highlight of our stay was a day trip to Aitutaki. You have to see it to believe how blue and clear the water is, absolutely picturesque.

Te Vakaroa Villas
My husband and I recently stayed at the beautiful Te Vakaroa Villas for 6 wonderful nights. We stayed in one of the 1 bedroom units and found it perfect for a special romantic getaway. The unit had all the amenities we needed and the furnishing and decor were fabulous. Fresh flowers in the room and breakfast delivered to us each morning were some of the extra nice touches we experienced at Te Vakaroa. The amazing infinity pool right on the beach complete with comfortable lounge chairs and an enormous daybed make the pool area the best on Muri beach. We watched many times daily as people on the beach stopped and admired the pool and the facility itself. The beach area immediately outside the Villas was equally as perfect for lounging, swimming and people watching. We found Te Vakaroa Villas to be positioned within easy walking distance of many good restaurants, equipment and car/scooter rentals as well as tour facilities. The Villas were immediately next to the facility where we picked up kayaks and snorkels to use at will and was included as part of our stay at the Villas. Sails restaurant was a very short walk and we spent several evenings beach side partaking in happy hour drinks and eats. Muri beach itself we feel is the best beach on the island for those wanting a balance between beautiful scenery, swimming/snorkeling and access to restaurants and other local businesses. We do recommend renting a scooter or car in order to make the run into Avarua for groceries and shopping but it would not be necessary to have a vehicle rented for your entire stay. It should be noted that we did not book a vehicle in advance of our stay but had no problem renting a scooter just down the road from Te Vakaroa Villas. Last but not least, we were taken very good care of by all the friendly staff as well as by the owner Nick. They were extremely accommodating to our needs and went out of their way to make sure our stay was as fantastic as the Villas themselves.
