“We left happy”
This is a big hotel by Rarotonga standards, and it sometimes gets a bad rap for that, but it's really not a monstrosity. Our room was clean except for the top of the closets. The quality of the food and beverages was variable. Service was generally prompt, and the buffets were quite good - something for everybody - but I had a "burger" on fish night that turned out to be a cube steak that tasted like fish. Many of the guests made a point to sample the other restaurants on the island. The spagetti house associated with the resort was quite good. The location is ideal for watching the ocean and getting around - close to town and the airport. The island bus service comes right through the lobby. The beach is kept clean and raked. Biggest plus was the friendly staff. As the facility tries to fill their rooms, we found the place economical. It fills up frequently for weddings. Overall, maybe not the best place to stay, but a great value for the money.
“Super value for the cost.”
The very friendly staff was so welcoming, and I loved my room and its cleanliness. Town was a short bus ride away, and snorkeling was available right off the Edgewater beach. The breakfast provided as part of the cost of the room was quite adequate, with lots of fresh fruit, as well as muffins, toast, and cereal. There was always someone at the activities desk to hand out swim fins or towels or reef shoes. Don't miss the music and dancing on the evenings that special show is presented. It's well worth the extra expense!
“True Paradise”
A gorgeous place to relax
“Great location and private beach”
Staff at reception unfriendly. no toiletries in room. Fantastic location and views from room. own private beach and great snorkeling. bar is ordinary
“Perfect vacation spot and great hotel”
We chose Edgewater because it was the largest hotel, thus good facilities. We rented a car and went all over the island and found none better than our choice. Mom with 2 adult sons, we needed space so we reserved a villa. 3 separate bedrooms and 2 baths, washer and complete kitchen, stove and refrig. It was clean and neat, towel service daily. Room was not more than 1/3 block from beach. Generous continental breakfast included. The hotel pool was located in front of the restaurant and there was a cabana that provided free snorkeling equipment. I did not use fins, just water shoes and mask, walked directly out into the water a short distance and ducked down in 4' of water and saw 15 varieties of colorful tropical fish. Best snorkeling ever! The whales were migrating just off the reef and we watched them frolicking daily. One son even got a great photo of a whale jumping. We did 2 boats, one submarine (a boat where you could climb down a ladder and view underwater fish, the other a whale watching ($30 each) I cannot recommend this trip more highly. I am a world traveller and have been in 36 countries and all US states but Alaska. Rorotonga made me think how it must have been in Hawaii in the 40's. Not much tourism, mostly New Zealanders on holiday. Polynesian natives were friendly and accomodating. Makes me think THIS MAKES ME THINK HOW HAWAII MUST HAVE BEEN IN THE 40'S Evening meals may seem expensive, remember NZD vs USD is 75% Tax and tip included. Way to go, Expedia .
