The hosts were amazing, very accommodating & helpful. It was nice & quiet (except for the local animals). Short walk to the beautiful lagoon to go swimming & watch the sunset.

A quiet and spacious bungalow full of character. The ceiling fans were a great help when the temperatures rose, and was a comfortable stay. The hosts were welcoming and lovely upon arrival, and were full of recommendations and help during my stay!

The hosts were very welcoming and available with advice, or anything that was needed. There was a generous provision for breakfast for the first day. They have a great library to dip into on wet days.

Loved our stay at Aroa Kainga Bungalows, the owners are amazing, made us feel welcome and at home, beautiful bungalow, has everything you need. Beach is across the road, plenty of dining places near by. We will definitely come back again, love the privacy as well. Great place to stay at, Totally recommend.

Apart from the barking dogs and roosters that never sleep, the bungalows are located in a quiet and convenient spot just a few minutes walk from the beach. It’s excellent value for money with Wi-Fi and other thoughtful surprises like access to a washing machine, a library, and snorkeling gear etc. I would definitely stay again! Thank you!

This place was something else. Not on the water from but less than a 1 min walk down to a cute beach with great snorkelling. The unit was like a little tiny house fully equipped with everything you need to self cater. Nev greeted me and was super kind and helpful. There was fresh drinking water ever day, washing machine to use and everything was super clean and tidy. The bed was comfortable and the ceiling fans worked a treat! Lots of windows for the breeze to keep things cool. The deck looked out to lush garden area and was such a nice place to hang out on the rainy days. You could be outside without getting wet or wind blown. Bus stop 4 min walk away, convenience store 15 mins sling with the shipwreck bar for sundowners and incredible sunsets. I definitely rate this place, the only problem I had was my stay here wasn’t long enough!!!

6/10 Good

Bungalows are getting a bit tired + need a refresh but otherwise clean + comfortable. Lovely tropical plantings around the bungalows. Fabulous snorkelling within a 3 min walk - including low tide. Also good dining options, maybe need a scooter or car. A bit tricky to find, especially if you arrive at night + without google maps. All good with maps if you punch in the name/road + drive up the road (looks like a lane, but is actually a road!) until you see the sign for the bungalows. 🙂

8/10 Very good

Reasonably quiet area, close to beach. Accomodation was self contained with good size rooms, kitchen had toaster, hot water jug, mircowave, fridge. Plenty of coffee and sugar as well as assorted jams and some breakfast cereal, bread, butter and a small milk as well as a large water bottle to use. No problems parking on the property. My room would have been better suited with a moveable fan on a stand. Not many restaurant options nearby, so having a car would be a good choice. Owners were freindly and helpful.

10/10 Exceptional

Given just how much cheaper Aroa Kainga was compared to other options, and even despite how high other reviews have been, I was ready for at least some disappointment. But, no. The accommodation exceeded my expectations - the bungalow is nothing fancy, sure, but it was very well appointed, the fridge was well stocked with breakfasts and bread, free passionfruit from the owners' garden, lovely decking area and, a huge bonus, snorkelling gear and reef shoes if you don't want to schlep your own. There are also clothes washing faciltiies that came in handy. In terms of location, it also lucks out. There is only the one local restaurant, i.e. in walking distance, but cars, bikes and buses will get you to other ones with minimal hassle. However, Kaena (the local restaurant) is solid so if you're feeling lazy, you'll still be well served. In addition the local beach is, for my money, one of the best ones, since it is less crowded with resorts a la Muri, and all that entails. Moreover, we spotted sea turtles, moray eels and eagle rays while snorkeling in the area. Finally, the hosts - Nev and Debbie - are very friendly and helpful, and the information they provide is comprehensive.

Great wee spot. The room had a full sized fridge, microwave and a stove top making it easy to prepare our own food. There is also all equipment needed for snorkling. Debbie & Nev were absolutely amazing. Highly recommend Aroa Kainga Bungalow!!!

We absolutely recommend this place and fully enjoyed our stay. Nev and Debbie are fantastic hosts and provide a lot for their guests. The location of the bungalows couldn't be better, as it is very close to the beach but tranquil at the same time. The bungalow itself is very spacious and offers all necessities for a relaxed time on this beautiful island. The communication with the hosts was very friendly and easy. So once again, we absolutely recommend this accommodation.
