Description

Relax and enjoy watching the surf from Seaspray Beach Villa. a well appointed 3 bedroom 2 bathroom holiday home on the sunny north eastern coast of Rarotonga.

This home has attributes of a "Pacific" design with high ceilings, exposed rafters, roof vents and ceiling fans providing cool and airy living spaces.

The kitchen island and open dining room offer a choice of relaxed or more formal dining. Choose your view between the backdrop of Rarotonga's spectacular mountains, or view the surf breaking over the reef and the ocean.

A comfortably furnished lounge provides a cosy retreat from the main living area for reading, writing, watching TV/DVD's, listening to music or just watching the ever-changing moods of the sea.

Two large bi-fold doors open from the dining area onto the expansive deck for alfresco dining, sunbathing, cocktails at sunset or access to the beach. The deck can also be accessed via large sliding doors from both the master bedroom and lounge.

The house is situated on a private quarter acre section with a pathway to the beach at the end of the garden.

With the easiest access to the reef on the island you can explore the marine life at your leisure when the tide is low.

The main town of Avarua, with shops & market is just 4 minutes drive away. The Sailing Club and popular Muri Beach 9 minutes drive in the opposite direction. The bus will stop roadside.

Seaspray Beach Villa takes pride in being a smoke-free property.

Getting around

Enjoy a leisurely walk on the inland road (closer to the mountains). Visit the market in town on Saturday mornings...4 mins drive away. A bus travels around the island every hour and will stop at the roadside in front of the property. For convenience we recommend hiring a rental vehicle so you can see as much of the island as possible & make quick trips to the supermarket in town if necessary.

“Excellent facilities and well located between town and tourist spots”

Reviewed 9 Nov 2016

Seaspray is very clean, spacious and well appointed. It is good to be in the middle of town and tourism but you do need a car to get around.

This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on all reviews.

Response from the owner Yes, we recommend transport even though the bus stops roadside and goes around the island every hour 7am to 11pm Monday to Saturday. It is so much more convenient if you have your own car and it allows you to visit less accessible places on the island via the back roads.

Response from the owner Those dreaded tiny ants are common in coastal areas and are uninvited guests when it rains or when there is a drought and are attracted to any crumb left out...good thinking to use the fridge for food or sealed container in the pantry. I know there has been a lot of rain in Raro the past month or so. Will see to them!! Glad you enjoyed your stay anyway and thanks for choosing our holiday home for your accommodation in Raro. All the best to you and your whanau.

Response from the owner Many thanks for taking the time to post a review about your stay. We have just added an outdoor picnic table closer to the beach which will provide a closer view of any passing whales during months of July to October, and of canoeists paddling past during the annual Vaka Eiva event in November. The pathway to the beach has been improved and there was a lovely sandy patch there last week, though that frequently changes with the surf continually altering the coastline. Thanks again for your comments. Kia Manuia, Dorothea

Response from the owner Thanks for your review Wayne. Glad you found the place without a print out of my directions! An increase in petty theft of tourist accommodations on the island is the main reason we don't have a sign out on the road- the neighbours sign is handy! I'll make a point of asking guests to print out the directions in future. The baby Q weber BBQ is supposed to feed up to 6 people!! Will look to upgrade to a bigger one when we have to replace it next. Glad you enjoyed your stay. All the best. Dorothea
