Excellent value
Jaret was awesome to deal with. Top notch communication, checked in with us to make sure we were all settled in and was only a phone call away if we needed anything. House was very spacious, clean and tidy and great indoor/outdoor flow. Nice outdoor area and pool. Great location with muri a stones throw away, shops right next door and beach across the road. Loved it

Fantastic Holiday Home
Fantastic holiday home very close the Muri Beach. Good sized house with a great range of amenities. Well set up kitchen with everything you need. All of the rooms are of a good size and also has a great outdoor covered area. Beautiful, well maintained gardens with heaps of space. Amber and Jaret are excellent hosts and made our stay a wonderful holiday. I can highly recommend this holiday home no problem at all.

Thank you for sharing your villa with us. Such an easy place to stay, with everything we needed. Loved the lush gardens, relaxing on the porch, the hammock and it was great having a pool. Enjoyed takinb the kayaks out. Thanks for the food supplies too! Great coffee cart nearby. Amber and Jaret are warm and friendly hosts!

Great Location Great House
The house is great and as described. Very well appointed with everything you could need. Jaret and Amber were very accommodating. Location is great as well. We loved the kayaks that were there for everyone's use and the pool is very nice as well. Grounds are lovely and tidy. And really appreciated the landline so you could make local calls, really helped with organising stuff! Would highly recommend!

Fantastic large family friendly home
Our family of 4 loved the spacious house and lawn, great pool area and beautiful gardens. Lovely outdoor spaces. Just across the road to the beach and close to central Muri for restaurants and shops. Wonderful friendly hosts. Quiet neighbourhood. Perfect.

Great stay!
We loved our stay at this villa! The major positives were the communal swimming pool and the immediate close proximity to a bakery, liquor store, small grocery store and independent small restaurants. Our local hosts were amazing. They looked after all of our needs and we’re a very close call away. In fact, our local car rental agency was also owned by Jarret and Amber ‘go Cook Islands’ ... absolutely fabulous to deal with! The ocean is located across the road with beautiful black rock stones and lots of hermit crabs and tital pools for the kids to keep busy with! Rarotonga, you are beautiful and wish to see you again!

Wonderful!
Our time in the Cook Islands was perfect, and we loved staying here. We had everything we needed, and the owner was available when we had a couple of questions during our stay. We would absolutely return in the future.

Family Friendly Property
Great property in a good location, we stayed there with 3 babies and was well equipped. Our only struggle was not having air conditioning, but the pool was great to cool off.

Super All Round Experience
Our family of 5 found Island Time Villas the perfect getaway. The location was fabulous, the plunge pool great for quick dips between activities and the house was ideally set up for a family. We loved having the convenience of great coffee right next door.

Villa Kakaia was perfect for our stay. Everything we needed. Like a home away from home. Actually better than ours lol. Away from the crowds. Our 6yr old son couldn't keep out of the pool. Only regret is we didn't book for 2 weeks.

Great location and houses
We rented both villas for an extended family holiday. Great location, having our own pool and deck chairs was fantastic. Beds were comfy and the ceiling fans kept the rooms cool. Kitchen well appointed with everything you need. Would recommend you take your own snorkelling gear as villa ones are broken. We had a great time and would definitely recommend the villas to others. You just get so more space than at a resort.

Family-friendly and convenient
We loved our stay at Island Time Villas. The property is across the road from the beach and as it was windy during our stay we were actually glad to be in a sheltered garden rather than facing the sea. The property is well-located with the Muri shops a short walk in one direction and great snorkelling and Matutu brewery in the other. The house is well set up for young families with kids toys, high chairs and a cot available, playground equipment and plenty of private garden space as well as the pool. We would definitely come back!

Although the weather didn’t really go our way, the houses were amazing,
Our families stayed in both houses, and we had everything that families need. We had kids aged from 2 to 15 and besides unlimited internet for the teenager - because for them life isn’t worth living without it - they were kept entertained. The grounds are beautiful private, and well maintained. Loy was really helpful and friendly. The following suggestions wouldn’t be an issue if it didn’t rain, but an area for parking the car so the grass isn’t damaged by parking on it, and a spare clothesline to set up under the covered awning would be good ides. We would absolutely buy this if we could afford it. I would highly recommend it to any families planning a holiday to Rarotonga.

Great Property
This house has very lovely grounds safe for children. Am glad we ended up in Villa Kakaia because it’s a bit back from the road. Has most things you need. The linen was clean but I could smell other people on the pillows, so was glad I had packed my own. Girls said their beds were very comfy. Awesome DVD selection and the playground was thoroughly enjoyed. Hardly used the pool as the weather went cool but definitely handy if it was super hot. The deck, porch area is fab and you get nice breezes on the east side of the island. Was so easy to dry our washing. All that is needed is a more comfortable living area or lounge suite inside the house. Location is great. Go to the Musuem Cafe for iced chocolate, iced lemonade, choc brownies and pies to die for!! Thanks for having us.

Such a beautiful home!
We loved our stay, what would have made it even better would be air con but we all loved the swimming pool and cold showers to make up for the fans. Our children didnt want to leave and we definitely will be back! Absolutely stunning home, thank you so much for sharing your home with us x
