My partner and I are a young couple from New Zealand. We have visited Rarotonga four times but this was our first time staying at any of the Moana Sands accomodation. We stayed for three nights in a deluxe garden view room. The room was immaculate, clean and very spacious with modern amenities. The room itself reminded me of an upmarket hotel room you would find in New Zealand. It is worth noting that the feel of the resort was slightly commercialised compared to other accomodation we have stayed at in Rarotonga but that is expected with it being part of the Moana Sands group. The staff were nice and pleasant but perhaps not as friendly as some you would find at more boutique accomodation. The view from the room, dining area and pool is beautiful and the gardens are well kept as is the whole premises as a whole. We found that it was quiet, peaceful and relaxing at the resort. From what we saw we were some of the youngest guests there being in our late 20’s with a majority of the patrons being of an older demographic. However, as a young couple it was still enjoyable. The beach the resort is located on is a more rocky stretch of beach not as ideal for swimming as other parts of the beach on the island. We did have an enjoyable kayak out towards Muri Lagoon during our stay. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Moana Sands Lagoon Resort and would recommend it to anyone looking for quiet, relaxing stay in Rarotonga.

Great outlook and clean modern rooms with beautiful view of pool and ocean. . Pool was fantastic, but needed a few more deck chairs. Didn’t try restaurant as only open at night. No wifi available which was disappointing as most hotels provide it. Had to purchase it and even when we did it only lasted an hour, so waste of money.

A great place to visit. Nice clean room, absolutely lovely people, wonderful view out to the reef. Plus where else could you stand in your room, look out past the reef and see Humpback whales leaping out of the water? Went there as a 50th Wedding Anniversary trip. So glad we chose Rarotonga as a destination, and Moana Sands as the hotel.

Water pressure in the bathroom shower was very slow, it was almost dripping no pressure at all. Apart from that everything else was really good and we had good time during our stay. Friendly staff, good food, clean and quiet.

The staff at Moana Sands were absolutely amazing, particularly the ladies on the front desk. There was one who was especially wonderful and gave my friend and I lots of ideas and information about places to visit and what to do (she was the one who told us about the fantastic lemon cheesecake at the Maire Nui gardens!). The property was spotless, beautifully quiet, had gorgeous views and extremely spacious rooms. The only draw-back was there weren't dinner options from the restaurant every night during the low season, but the meals we did have there were delicious.
