Tamanu Beach  

On Aitutaki’s western coast, a beachfront resort steps right onto white sand and the blue lagoon. About a 3-minute drive to Maungapu and roughly 2 miles from Aitutaki (AIT) airport, with Arutanga Harbour and the golf club minutes away. Family-operated and ideal for weddings, honeymoons, and island escapes.

Casual-luxe bungalows tucked into lush tropical gardens — 23 in total plus a villa with large decking and kitchenette. Many units feature indoor/outdoor showers, air conditioning, espresso makers, refrigerators, safes and 43-inch Smart TVs; daily housekeeping keeps things fresh. Beachfront bungalows sit a stone’s throw from the lagoon for instant sea views.

Two freshwater pools, a full-service spa (massages, body treatments, facials), a beachfront bar and restaurant, plus a private white-sand beach for snorkeling, kayaking and SUPs — many watersports are complimentary. Wake up to sea-breeze mornings and enjoy complimentary return airport transfers and a daily tropical breakfast; Wi-Fi is available for a surcharge. On-site concierge, gift shop, library, picnic area and a diving club keep things active and easy.

A business center, meeting room and 904 sq ft of conference space support small events and functions. Multilingual staff, luggage storage and a complimentary 24-hour roundtrip airport shuttle round out the setup.

Tamanu beachfront restaurant serves international dishes with Polynesian touches and a complimentary cooked-to-order breakfast daily (7:30–10:30). Two bars and a weekly 'Takurua' island feast — with song, dance and fire dancing — make evenings unforgettable.
