Tamanu Beach

Nice resort with beautiful and peaceful lagoon. The bungalow is fantastic but the facilities are quite basic. No quilt on bed. There is scale in kettle so the water tastes quite weird after boiling. Restaurant is good！Breakfast including complementary hot meal order and the dinner meal is delicious. Overall this is a good resort but hope the hotel management can make more efforts in improving the room facilities.

The hotel is OK but could do with a tidy up. Our villa was clean and well equiped but the toilet seat was broken. You have a sort of paddle that indicates whether you need towels changed and no room makeup. We got it wrong one day only to find our bed not made up. This was not pointed out to us by reception when we arrived. The Adults only section only applies to the villas to the left of the restaurant , the restaurant and other facilities are open to families. So it is not an Adult only resort as indicated. Restaurant was fine with a jolly good breakfast. Good location as only 10 minutes from Airport.

The accommodation was lovely and the beach was right at our door step. The facility had snorkling qear and the use of kayaks in the gorgeous reef area. The scenery and relaxing atmosphere with the very helpful staff were very helpful. Getting our license for the scooter around the island highly recommended. The food was excellent at the on site restaurant as well as entertainment on the cultural night.

Beautiful view of the lagoon from #112 bungalow . The walk from restaurant to bungalow via beach access at night was a little hard to navigate...bring a flashlight. Bungalow was serviced everyday,esppresso pods ,tea and condiments and water refilled as the water from the tap is not suitable to drink.The coffee cups were too small for us.. and we went through the coffee fast.Compimentary breakfast served everyday. The Lagoon was spectacular very much like being in a aquarium and the water was crystal clear and wonderful. The staff were amazing! The only noise you'll hear is the roosters and chicken and the waves hitting the reef.

Quite close to where we stayed so an easy option for a meal, really enjoyed the lunches and in particular we shared a club sandwich which was great, nicely marinated chicken. Well priced, a view of the beach with a light breeze under the roof to watch the world go by.

We had the privilege of staying beach villas 202 and 203, side by side and right on the beach. The picture included is the view from our patio from the room. The staff at the front desk was efficient and helpful. We have nothing but compliments. The staff at the restaurant equally as efficient even when we forgot to make a reservation and that was for the Sunday BBQ night (we had just arrived from San Francisco). We enjoyed the BBQ night, lots of food, salads galore and meats galors...way too much food and then, hold up, there's dessert that shows up too! Mr Nick Henry is one of the stars on the Team. He sings, he dances, he makes you feel like family and that you're at home. This is a wonderful hotel and restaurant.

My husband and I recently had a 3-night stay at Tamanu Beach Resort and we had a wonderful stay. We stayed in the adults-only side of the resort in a well-appointed, comfortable and spacious bungalow. We were very pleased that the complimentary breakfast also included a hot breakfast choice of the menu as well as the continental buffet, which is what most Rarotongan hotels provide. The staff were really friendly and helpful. And the complimentary foot massage from the spa is a lovely touch. I would definitely recommend Tamanu Beach Resort to anyone coming to beautiful Aitutaki.

What a fabulous 3 days we had at this hotel in Aitutaki. We were in the adult only area our room was spacious with a huge bed. We loved the thatched roof. The balcony was great for sitting in the evenings. The bathroom was spacious and modern, and the toiletries smelt gorgeous. We absolutely loved the outdoor shower….what a treat. All staff were friendly and helpful. We found the food to be pretty good…please remember they are reliant on supplies from outside the island. The beach is stunning. A fantastic stay with no complaints

We attended the Island Night Cultural buffet. I’m not a big fan of buffets however the quality and choice of Polynesian food was excellent. Kilan the MC, singer, dancer, barman and a super nice guy made our night. The dancing and fire show was great and just amount of time!
