The Edgewater Resort & Spa
10/10 Excellent
"Super clean room and facilities. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind. Excellent food at the restaurant. Perfect location! Can’t say anything bad :)"
"Lovely, quiet place to stay. Bus stop right outside, and location is not too far from the airport. Breakfast options included local fruit and the variety of foods was good. The breakfast ladies were a delight, and Vikki and Naomi at the front desk were efficient, friendly and helpful. Our airport transfers went very smoothly. "
"Booked a day use room rate to accommodate a long period between flights. Room was really clean and spacious for what we would consider an “airport hotel”. Restaurant/bar area was awesome and good/drinks really good. Staff were really friendly and helpful, spa onsite to grab a massage before flight home. Thanks for a comfortable few hours :)"
"What an incredible piece of paradise. All the staff were so friendly and always happy to help. Everything was clean and well kept. I highly recommend a massage!"
"Loved my stay here!! It was so tranquil and cool to have The Rarotongan next door for games and a busier atmosphere.
Loved the amenities being right outside the rooms to take straight into the beach. There were so many activities each day there’s something for everyone. The staff were amazing - shoutout to Mark and Akuela. I’ll definitely be back. Meitaki"
