Amazing property - whanau stayed in Te Aro Villa 1 & 2 and loved every moment! The location 5min walk to Muri Beach was perfect. The cleanliness of the properties and both having a pool meant hours of fun even when the sun went down. The owner was very easy to communicate with - We will definitely book again...

Kia Orana Sharnytas Studio! Meitaki maata Sharnyta for the fabulous stay and for being such an amazing Host. From picking me up at Club Raro Resort and dropping me off and offering to stop at the shops to pick up a few essentials. It just made my stay extra special at Sharnytas Studio! It was nice, clean and cosy and close to everything. I enjoyed chillaxing on the deck and outdoor area. I will definitely stay here again and I can't wait to come back to Rarotonga!

Gorgeous house with lots of practical touches. The kitchen is very well equipped for self catering. Maria was lovely. The walk up to the Hospital Lookout is well worth doing.

    The staff and location were great. They have hot and cold drinks plus affordable breakfast/lunch meals available by the pool. They changed the linen daily and were very trusting. We saw whales and had a friendly cat that we got attached to.

    Lovely budget friendly place with everything you need for a relaxing holiday. Has a nice clean pool for swimming because the Inn is on the rocky side of the island so not ideal for beach swimming but stunning and picturesque view of the lagoon, ocean, sunrise and we even saw some whales, reef surfers and vaka training teams going by. Only a short (maybe 8 min drive) in either direction to some lovely swimming/floating beaches. Friendly, helpful staff and the takeaway hut prepared yummy fresh food.
