The Team At Cooks Oasis made a awesome first impression by a special message on a blackboard advising our villa number as we came on a night flight. And that made it very easy. The place is quiet and chill for all those who wana escape city life.🙂 loved the complimentary fruit bowl ! Thanks for having us

We love this place.
Matty & Erin were lovely and full of helpful information.
The teenagers were very happy to find that Wi-Fi was now available. We were happy that a water filter was recently installed. We were all happy with the lovely beach only a short walk away, and the pool for cooling off in.
Villa 2 had plenty of room for the 4 of us. The air-conditioning and fans kept us comfortable.
Great facilities available included in your stay: laundry, BBQ, DVD library, reef shoes and snorkelling gear, and kayaks.
There are restaurants withing walking distance and it is only 10 mins or so into Avarua by car.
We much preferred The Cooks Oasis over a full blown resort.
Hope we can make it back one day.

The Cooks Oasis - 'O' for Awesome !!
Immaculately presented upper level island beach house. Spacious, high vaulted ceilings, well ventilated, comfortable rooms, fully equipped kitchen and a great shower/bathroom facility.
The wrap around verandah provided great indoor/outdoor flow with glimpses of the stunning beach 2 mins walk down a short shared driveway.
Awesome hosts Erin and Matt are always on hand to offer super friendly, relaxed, professional assistance, nothing is a problem. Their encyclopaedic local knowledge, advice and connections helped get us into all the places we needed to go. A good bar (The Birdcage) and restaurant (Anchorage) are next door at the resort and nice little bakery across the road. First time in 'Raro and planning our next trip already - thanks to the Cooks Oasis team for an unforgettable stay!

Lovely property managed since June 2022 by a knowledgeable and friendly kiwi couple. Recommend if you are looking for a smaller place to stay with a plunge pool and a lovely private beach facing towards the sunset. The owners gave a fantastic overview to the property including the free kayaks, snorkels and reef shoes.
Room has a kitchen for cooking and there areno fewer than 20 restaurants ranging from resorts to a local bakery within 15 minutes walk.
Rooms was clean and had its private seating area.
Recommend if you are looking for a quiet stay with warm hosts

Upon arrival, host were very accommodating. We arrived late because of the flight delay, but hosts made sure we are looked after and comfortable. Cleaned our place every after 2 days, and restock everything. Walking towards the beach woth an awesome view. Great service. Will definitely come back again.
