Moana Sands
has just finished an extensive refurbishment and upgrade program on
their 12 existing Beachfront Superior Rooms with all rooms now
featuring new beds, curtains, bedspreads, fittings, paintwork and
artwork. We have also added 5 brand new Beachfront Suites on a newly
constructed top floor. These offer spacious, contemporary living in
a relaxing décor.
The recently renovated 12 Beachfront Superior Rooms and 5 new
Beachfront Suites offer fantastic views of the sparkling blue lagoon
and the white sand beach is literally just steps from your door. All
of our guest rooms and suites are self-contained with a small
kitchenette and are air-conditioned for your comfort.
This
small, privately owned hotel is located on a pristine marine reserve
-- Rarotonga's premier swimming and snorkeling beach
near the village of Titikaveka on the stunning south coast of
Rarotonga.
Here the soft sand of the 10km beach is so white that you can walk
on it without shoes or sandals - even in the heat of the day. And
there is every chance that at 8 am yours will be the first
footprints.
Here the lagoon is azure blue, sheltered, deeper, safe, reef
protected and teeming with colorful tropical, harmless fish life. A
true snorkeler's dream come true!
The hotel is located absolute beachfront - each of the 12 rooms
enjoy the same magical panoramic lagoon view and are a mere 15 steps
from the beckoning lagoon.
Our two Villas are also beachfront and located 100 meters along the
beach - or along the quiet road - a pleasant stroll to join in the
hotel activities - or the choice to stay isolated, relaxed and self
contained.
The hotel cafe and bar is for guests only and serves delicious
dinners, thrice weekly in a dinner party atmosphere and hearty
breakfasts daily. On those magical tropical nights we tend to eat
by candlelight on the beach under the stars or on the hotel lawn.
