Highlights

The Resort — Award-winning, waterfront boutique luxury on the Cook Islands

The largest and most popular of the Cook Islands, Rarotonga, is a true tropical paradise with stunning coral reefs, turquoise lagoons, spectacular sunsets and lush mountainous rainforest. Perched on the postcard-worthy white sands of Rarotonga’s Titikaveka Beach, Little Polynesian Resort is a romantic sanctuary with arguably the most spectacular sunsets in the South Pacific.

An ideal marriage of top-notch boutique luxury, Polynesian craftsmanship and first-class hospitality, with just 10 exclusive beachfront bungalows and four garden studios, the resort has garnered a plethora of accolades, including status as a member of the prestigious Small Luxury Hotels of the World community and a cluster of World Travel Awards.

Forget your everyday cares as you recline on the secluded beach or retreat into a shaded lounger on your private sundeck or by the infinity pool. Or, let your senses take the lead on a visit to nearby night markets, embark on an incredible snorkelling adventure, chat with the friendly locals or hire a car and road trip around this rugged island in under 45 minutes.

Your Handpicked Inclusions – Daily tropical breakfast, dinners at Little Polynesian Restaurant and more

Wake up to a daily complimentary tropical breakfast served from 7.30am to 10.30am and feast on fresh local fruit, yoghurt, honey, toast and more in the resort’s beachfront restaurant with beautiful views over the pool and shimmering lagoon. Celebrate your arrival with a welcome bottle of wine to share and a tropical drink to refresh you from your travels.

Plus, enjoy two dinners at Little Polynesian Restaurant and Bar, where you can feast on an eclectic fusion of traditional island cuisine and Pacific delights, like Polynesian prawn and fish salad, island-style sashimi and more. Take advantage of the resort’s kayaks, paddleboards, beach towels and sun loungers and, with Wi-Fi included in your package, you’ll be able to seamlessly update loved ones with the awe-inspiring vistas you discover here.
