Most accommodation in Cook Islands is in the form of villas, lodges, and small or large resorts. However, a few of the larger resorts - though not 5 star - are 'hotel style', able to provide hotel type facilities, hotel rooms, accommodate large groups and cater for business visitors as well as families and individuals.
Most hotels are located right on the beach. But even if you aren't on the beach it will never be far to get to one. Two of the best beach locations in Rarotonga are in Muri and Titikaveka. On the west side of the island, however, the beaches are still good and there are spectacular sunsets. On Aitutaki, some of the best beaches you would hope to find anywhere are to be found in the lagoon there !
If you wish to take island tours, go diving, sport or gamefishing, most resort hotels will be able to help you with this.
Most resort hotels will hold an Island Night at least once a week. This is your chance to sample the local cuisine and watch or participate in Cook Islands dancing.
If you are travelling as a family, many of the resorts have special deals, discounted meals, kids clubs, babysitting available and so on. Ask for details when you email them.
On the other hand, if you are choosing the Cooks Islands for your honeymoon or wedding destination, many of the larger resort hotels will be able to help you with arrangements for your paradise vacation of a lifetime.
