Our villa had everything that we needed for our week. The villa itself is incredible! The modern beach styling and large decks on two levels made for a relaxing retreat to listen to the waves lap up in the lagoon. The breakfasts were plentiful and the appliances and outdoor grill were clean and newer. The loungers around the pool and the spa tub made for lazy afternoons when we weren’t exploring the area. The villas are a short walk from the Muri Night Market and have easy access to the local bus. I want to specifically mention the services team that brought us our daily breakfasts and serviced our villa daily. They were friendly, courteous, and made for a wonderful week in Rarotonga. I highly recommend including the Crystal Blue Lagoon Villas in your next vacation to the Cook Islands.

Liked:
Jacuzzi/ Spa available: excellent for cold days/ nights. A perfect spot to relax
Very close to the night market, rentals, groceries & restaurants
Clean and well maintained
Disliked:
- Zero flexibility/ tolerance for people with late flights at day of departure/check-out. Need to leave the premises and find a place to kill time. Unfortunately, this piece of information is only made available after a booking has been made. I don't see the difficulty in making this available under the description of the accommodation.
- A bit noisy in the morning. At approx. 09:35 AM, the Koka Lagoon Cruise next to the villa starts their daily drum and music session before heading out with their glass bottom boats. Last till approx. 10 AM.
- Continental breakfast - is not your typical continental breakfast and not that much.

Amazing location, staff were very friendly, came with everything we could have needed and more including free paddle board and kayak hire.
Breakfast every morning was fresh and yum.
Just a 10/10 spot middle of muri beach couldn’t be happier with our stay at Crystal Blue Lagoon villas

Gorgeous lagoon villa, very well equipped and amazing pool and outdoor spaces. Right near the Mooring fish cafe and night markets and great views. Perfect for our family with two teenage girls.
Everything was AMAZING! A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!!!
Robin was very helpful and accommodating. She is a Jill-of-all-trade as well! We arrived earlier than expected, but she was still able to help us with storing our luggage while we go visit the near by area so the cleaning crew can do their job and prepare our villa for us.
First time outside of the country for us as a married couple, and the experience we had will never be forgotten. The beautiful villa that housed us for the week, and the water! OH the water was right there at our footsteps! It was Wonderful! snorkeling with the fishes and the wonderful things we participated in during our stay; Rarotonga definitely left a mark in our hearts. One day, we wish to come back and revisit again! Hopefully we'll be able to come back and stay with blue lagoon as well!
The villa amenities were excellent and luxurious! up to date equipment and decorated in very tasteful designs and decor! Everything was pleasing to the eyes and senses. A/C was also much appreciated during the day. It was a bit muggy, but nothing that a bit of AC can fix up. The cleaning crew worked quickly and cleanly. Can't say that there was anything wrong.
IF you want relaxation and somewhere "on the beach"... this is the place. The right price, the right view, and the right kind of relaxation. LOVED every moment.
Thank you for the memories! Everything was like a dream paradise for us.

Beyond amazing!
Not only was the Villa beyond what I could have ever dreamed of, the view was absolutely breathtaking. Thank you so much
Amazing location and so much to offer! Breakfast each day was a delight and something to look forward to, the pool area was fantastic and it’s a quick walk down to the beach. I highly recommend!
Can't fault the location, or the properties. 4 modern, well appointed villas in a secluded beach-front location. Ideal for chilling by the infinity pool, or exploring the Muri lagoon and village. The vouchers for canoe hire and availability of snorkels made for a stress-free easy stay.
Highly Recommend!!! This place is great, fantastic really. Super private, very large villas, fresh air flow throughout entire villa, large TVs throughout with pre-saved, modern movies, and beautiful modern kitchen. And that's just the villa... the infinity pool and landscaping is incredible. Very private feeling and hotel has private access to the beach (but you really just want to stay in that pool).
There is breakfast every morning that is personally delivered.
Customer service is also equally amazing. When we arrival everything was taken care of and our key was waiting for us. The villa has two bedrooms upstairs that both have individual Air Con units, that work great. Downstairs is open air with large windows and a giant glass sliding-door that we usually kept open.
The bathrooms are also very clean and modern. You can tell this place was designed high end with everything from bathroom tile to kitchen appliances.
Also, this is located with walkability to everything (restaurants, markets, bars and the famous Night Markets). While it is centrally located, the property is surrounded with high concrete walls for privacy.
I cannot recommend this place enough!
We stayed in one of the beachfront villas, the one further away from the pool.
Very modern and well appointed, with amazing views of the lagoon and the ver changing colours of the water.
Although we haven’t met the manager Robyn in person, she has been very good at keeping in touch, through phone calls and notes.
The staff was ever so friendly, and keeping the villa spotless. Especially Gusti, always with a big smile.
Nice breakfast delivered every morning.
Nice touch to have masks and snorkels available in the villa, as well as vouchers for kayaks, which are available just at the front of the villas.
A great accommodation in a beautiful island.
Fantastic property & perfect location, well appointed modern villas with awesome infinity pool & outdoor lounge furniture. Staff attending to the villas daily & also delivering a fresh continental style breakfast tray were wonderful, hopefully they are compensated for the great job they do. Robyn the Manager was also very helpful & friendly & advised all details & info both before arrival & during our stay. Villas were immaculate & spacious with wonderful views over Muri Lagoon. Fantastic & private property.
The villa was in a great location, and the accommodations were wonderful. The only gripe we had with the property was the ants. We understood that the island has a lot of ants, but the villa was not sealed/caulked well enough so the ants made their way into the living room and kitchen by the droves. The property owner needs to do better exterminating around the property and seal the doors and windows to make sure the ants stay outside.
This was our third holiday in Rarotonga and this apartment was by far the best we have seen on the Island. The fixtures and fittings are all top quality and the apartment was really well appointed with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was particularly well-equipped and each unit has its own Webber bbq. The infinity pool was perfect for a swim at the end of the day and the property itself is very small, with only four apartments, and very quiet with the age restriction for children. All in all this was an outstanding property and Robyn was very good to deal with. Highly recommended!
The apartment was amazing and Robyn (the manager) was also amazing. It is right on the beach, immaculate condition, great pool and spa. I would strongly recommend this place to stay.
Amazing week at the Crystal Blue Lagoon Villas. Robyn and the rest of the staff were amazing and catered to our every need from early check in and early check out, etc. I would highly recommend this place, I've been to Rarotonga before and we were with a wedding party that stayed at 5 other hotels/villas and we had the best experience and lodgings by far. Definitely check this place out!
