Sanctuary Rarotonga-On the beach - Adults Only  

On Rarotonga’s secluded Aroa Beach, this adults-only boutique resort sits right on the shores of the Aroa Lagoon — a jewel-colored marine reserve known for superb snorkeling and wild turtles. Puaikura Beach and Cocoputt are steps away, with the National Museum and National Stadium also within easy reach and the island town center about 5 km out.

South Pacific vibes with boutique polish: thatched-roof Beachfront Suites feature rattan-lined walls, black pearl-shell accents and Italian-tiled bathrooms. Rooms open to private furnished balconies or patios and include pillowtop beds, mini-fridges, tea/coffee stations and LED TVs; the resort also houses SpaPolynesia LUXE and Rarotonga’s only high-end swim-up pool bar.

Wake up to sea-breeze mornings on a private stretch of white sand, then cool off at the beachfront pool with a swim-up bar or try the outdoor pool and tennis court. Complimentary daily tropical breakfast, snorkelling gear, SUPs, kayaks, guided snorkel and dive lessons, a full activities program (drumming, ukulele, lei-making, fish feeding) and a full-service spa keep every day packed with island life.

Conference and meeting facilities plus a 24-hour business centre make the resort conference-ready while concierge and event services handle logistics. Complimentary wireless internet and express check-in/check-out are available.

Blue Water Grill Pacific serves Pacific and international flavors beachfront with a garden view and bar, and guests can also dine seaside at sister-property Captain Andy’s Beach Bar & Grill. A café/coffee shop, limited room service and poolside/swim-up bars round out the food and drink options.
