Traditionally inspired hideaway on the sands of one of the most beautiful beaches of Rarotonga. Set on the peaceful southern shore of Rarotonga- Little Polynesian Resort is the backdrop for blissful beach escapes. Wake to Pacific Ocean views from a Beachfront Bungalow- or the scent of tropical flowers drifting into your Garden Studio. Whichever suite you pick- expect traditional Polynesian touches- from hand-carved features to vaulted ceilings inspired by historic Are dwellings. Far from stuck in the past- minimalist design and a chic ivory and wood colour scheme bring these exclusive retreats right up to date. Spend your days in a hammock on the private beach and lapping up views from the infinity pool. Or take a hotel kayak and snorkel to watch fish darting about the coral reef. If you want to go further afield- this boutique hotel can arrange excursions to discover the central highlands and cultural visits to Rarotongan villages. Return by sunset to watch the shadows lengthen over a cocktail- before sampling Mediterranean Polynesian fusion cuisine at the poolside restaurant. With so few other guests- Little Polynesian Resort will feel like your own piece of paradise. Little Polynesian Resort is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.
