Kia Orana! Tapunui is our family home that we have available throughout the year whilst we are not on the island. Our family enjoy using our home for the space and the unique style of the home. The size and scale of the property is very big to accomodate couples travelling together or larger families. The pricing reflects that the house does not provide the bells and whistles. We make it affordable with a no frills budget accomodation that is suited to families and groups who want to stay together but without the price tag. Rarotonga is our home however we are employed and based in Australia and New Zealand. We love returning home to Raro to enjoy a space that holds a very special place in our hearts and have opened the home to be used by other families to enjoy a piece of our paradise. Meitaki maata e Kia Manuia Thank you & may you live long. A property manager is available to contact should there be any issues for the duration of your stay. The house is accessible by key lock and the property manager does make a courtesy visit from time to time if there are any concerns prior to guest arrival.
Close to the beach, near the main road and local shops. Market stalls selling wares within walking distance and Kaina restaurant and Kavera takeaways are just down the road. Local bus stops outside, rental cars and scooter hire near by. Tapunui is located near the main road of Rarotonga where the local bus drives past both clockwise and anti-clockwise. Local rental car companies are located within walking distance towards The Rarotongan Beach Resort and the Kavera shops hire push bikes and scooters.
