“The Rarotongan Beach Resort & Lagoonarium's beachfront location on Aroa Beach is certainly a plus, with its protected lagoon offering decent snorkeling. However, reports of inconsistent service and dated facilities temper the appeal, especially considering the price point. While the resort aims for family-friendly, a refresh seems necessary to truly deliver on expectations.”
