This was our second trip to Edgewater, this time staying in a beachfront room with our 2 kids, 6 and 10. We loved the views from our balcony, the facilities, the well maintained gardens and the helpful staff especially our lovely Cleaner. We are already wanting to plan our 3rd stay.

This was our second time at the Edgewater. The first time we got married and recently we went back with our children and some family members to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. We had a comfortable stay and the garden villa was very spacious. We did notice that the facility has become a bit tired since we were last there. Just little things but overall we enjoyed our stay.

Great place to stay, staff are lovely and rooms were tidy and clean. This is our forth time staying here. Kids club was good for the 6 year old staying with our whanau, lots of activities to keep kids entertained and snorkelling out the front was great. Horrible smell outside our room think it’s due to renovations but could only smell it when leaving the room and not when relaxing on balcony which is the reason for 4 star.

The service in the restaurant was very slow, especially in the evenings, there never seemed to be enough staff, and the ones that were working were rushed. The food was average at best and cold on occasions.

The staff were very helpful and bar was excellent. The 3 bedroom villa we had was quite tidy but on closer inspection was quite dirty, a lot of dust, sand and grim on floors behind and under beds. Air conditioning unit in the bedroom didn’t really work. Water filter in kitchen was loose.

Rooms were clean and staff very friendly. My room was located close to beach and main facilities and could be very noisy, early morning and afternoons. Security were available if it was noisy after 10pm. I did call them one night. Beautiful beach, lagoon and sunsets.

This was the perfect place for our family vacation with an 8-year-old and a 13-year-old. The location and facilities were excellent, offering something for both adults and children to enjoy. We couldn’t have asked for more. Friendly stuff made our stay special. We were very satisfied with the swimming pools, the beach, and the wide range of activities available, both complimentary and paid. It was a wonderful stay, and we would happily return. No cooked breakfast was included. Only continental was included. Snorkeling gear, including masks and fins, was available free of charge, which made it even easier to enjoy the beautiful ocean. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

There were plumbing issues. After every shower, the drains would block and would take a long time before the shower water would clear, and it stunk the whole bathroom out. Around the outside of the Mitiaro building, it stunk like sewage, constantly. There seemed to be staff shortages, two days in a row without room service. I still love Rarotonga and would most definitely return. But I think there can by far be room for improvement.
