This amazing resort was the most beautiful place I think I have ever been! The water is an incredible color, with white sand beaches, beautiful bungalows, delicious food, and my favorite part was how wonderful all of the staff and workers were! They learned and called you by name each time they saw you. They were SO friendly and helpful and made us feel so cared for and loved! I highly recommend this resort!!

I didn’t expect this hotel to be that amazing — but it completely blew me away! I’m recommending it to everyone I know. What truly makes this place special is the staff. I’ve never felt so warmly welcomed and genuinely cared for. Every single staff member knew our names, where we were from, and even remembered our food preferences by heart.
When we arrived in our room, there were snorkeling gear, a paddleboard, and board games already set up for us. Bikes were also available for everyone, making it super easy to explore.
The only downside? The mosquitoes — but honestly, everything else was so incredible that it didn’t even matter. An unforgettable experience on a stunning private island!

My wife and I recently spent our honeymoon at Aitutaki Lagoon Private Island Resort and it was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always eager to help—making us feel like we were part of their island family. We stayed in an overwater bungalow, and waking up each morning to the stunning turquoise lagoon was truly unforgettable. The buffet breakfast was a highlight every day—fresh, delicious, and enjoyed with unbeatable views.
The resort had everything we could’ve asked for to make our stay both relaxing and adventurous. They provided complimentary paddle boards, kayaks, lilos, snorkels, and even bicycles for every room, which was a lovely touch and a great way to explore the island. We also enjoyed the extra amenities like the pool table and table tennis, which added to the fun. Every moment felt effortless and special—truly the perfect place to celebrate our honeymoon.

I stayed at Aitutaki Lagoon Private Island Resort for 3 nights, and unfortunately, it did not live up to expectations—especially as a solo traveler. While this resort might cater well to couples, solo guests are clearly an afterthought.
Despite their policy stating that check-in is at 3pm, I arrived on the same flight as a couple who was taken to their room almost immediately upon arrival. I, on the other hand, had to wait an additional hour and a half. The front desk staff, particularly Roneel, offered vague excuses and showed clear preferential treatment toward couples. Given that the hotel asks for your flight information in advance, there’s no excuse for being unprepared.
Once in my bungalow, things didn’t improve much. The lounge chairs were dirty, torn, and moldy, and mine had visible bird droppings—not exactly the “luxury” you expect at a 5-star property (which frankly feels more like 3-4 stars at best). On my first day, I went on an island-hopping tour and returned to find the room had barely been touched—only one large towel replaced, bed made, and dirty glasses from the night before still sitting there.
On the second day, I opted to use the $20 off credit in exchange for no room cleaning—but honestly, after the first day’s effort, there didn’t seem to be much difference.
The one bright spot was Luke from the restaurant—he was warm, welcoming, and genuinely interested in making guests feel seen and valued. His kindness stood out in contrast to the overall inattentiveness I experienced elsewhere.
If you're traveling solo or looking for consistent 5-star service, I’d recommend looking elsewhere. This resort clearly prioritizes honeymooners and couples, and doesn’t deliver the quality or hospitality it advertises.
