Crown Beach Resort & Spa

Official Rating

‘Boutique in Style, Stand-Alone Villas’

Crown Beach Resort & Spa Rarotonga is so delicately placed in the tropical environment that it’s almost seamless. Hazy sunsets, strolls along the beach and lazy days by the pool or on your private terrace are the perfect recipes for relaxation. Should you want a bit of action, why not try snorkelling in the lagoon or taking out one of the kayaks? You can follow the tour guide and explore the surrounding villages of the island, or head further afield to downtown Avarua just 15 minutes’ away. Oceans Restaurant is the front-runner when it comes to dining in the Cook Islands, with a superb selection of fresh seafood and delicious grills infused with the flavours of Pacific-Rim cuisine, as well as a weekly Polynesian buffet with traditional dancing and live entertainment.

In Our Opinion
