The Resort — One of only two Cook Islands resorts included in the Small Luxury Hotels of the World collection
With direct flights to the Cook Islands available from Sydney, it is easier than ever to discover the utterly remote and exclusive Pacific Resort Aitutaki, featuring just 29 intimate bungalows, suites and villas overlooking a private stretch of the dazzling turquoise Aitutaki Lagoon. This breathtaking resort’s seclusion means great walks and bike rides, uninterrupted hammock lounging along the beachfront and dips in the sparkling pool, with just the sound of the ocean for company.
Leave the world behind as you indulge in serenity at this incomparable oasis, designed for guests aged 12 and over. Take a kayak and explore the hidden bays and coves of this tiny island, where you’re never too far from natural wonders. Beautiful beaches and hiking trails abound, and island-hopping is easy, with a further 22 dreamy islands nearby. Perched high above the breathtakingly turquoise waters of Aitutaki Lagoon, Tiare Spa offers a more relaxed form of rejuvenation, with holistic facials, massages and therapies.
The resort has the world-class hospitality you can expect from its inclusion in the prestigious Small Luxury Hotels of the World collection. At the resort’s onsite Black Rock Bar — named for the striking volcanic rocks that frame nearby Amuri Beach — you can sip on a refreshing poolside cocktail or feast on delicious fare crafted with seasonal local produce. Alternatively, take in panoramic views over the glistening Aitutaki lagoon at Rapae Bay Restaurant, where fresh seafood is the specialty. If you simply can’t leave the comfort of your room, lounge in your robe and pick up the phone to order room service.
