Ikurangi Is such a great way to not only stay on Raro, but fully experience the local culture of the island. The resort is in a peaceful neighborhood but still close enough to hear the ocean. The pool is at the right temperature and each day we were treated to a different breakfast with locally sourced food and the portions were plenty large. Our accommodation were clean and comfortable and you never felt any of the world around you. This is a great way to experience Rarotonga.

I was looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway and Ikurangi certainly delivered. I stayed in a luxury tent and it had everything I needed for a great stay. The facilities are well maintained and Vicki and Alan are incredibly welcoming. The daily breakfasts were wonderful. The bus was only 5 minutes walk away and the access to bicycles was also great. I will return!

What a piece of paradise in paradise. Quite romantically beautiful in the glamping tents. Vicki and Alan are fantastic hosts, nothing is too much drama and breakfasts are deliciously homemade and vary each day. They have push bikes for free on site but would suggest hiring a car just so you can explore all the beauty of Raratonga and get to the wine shop to enjoy a glass on the balcony of the tent and absorb the view and serenity. We loved our stay :)

🌺This picturesque sanctuary was just what the Dr ordered. It's away from the hustle and bustle and beautiful. The glamping experience was exceptional, just the way we remembered it from nearly a year prior. We love how we both breathed a sigh of relief and contentment, when we arrived, and we're very sad to leave. Vicki & Allen, we will definitely be back.

I had the best stay at Ikurangi. I came to Rarotonga to unwind and Ikurangi was exactly what I needed. The tent was fantastic and comfortable with everything I needed, the breakfasts were amazing - such a treat- and the setting is tranquil. I slept like a baby to the sound of the sea. Vicky and Alan are fantastic hosts and I thoroughly recommend staying here!
