We loved our stay at Ikurangi - in fact, it was the highlight of our trip to Rarotonga! Vicki and Alan have created a beautiful, relaxing atmosphere for their guests, and we were taken aback by their thoughtfulness. The luxury safari tent had everything we needed, and both Vicki and Alan provided great guidance on how to make the most of our time on the island. Alan’s breakfasts were also amazing, and the cherry on top of our stay! We can’t wait to come back!

Ikurangi Is such a great way to not only stay on Raro, but fully experience the local culture of the island. The resort is in a peaceful neighborhood but still close enough to hear the ocean. The pool is at the right temperature and each day we were treated to a different breakfast with locally sourced food and the portions were plenty large. Our accommodation were clean and comfortable and you never felt any of the world around you. This is a great way to experience Rarotonga.

I was looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway and Ikurangi certainly delivered. I stayed in a luxury tent and it had everything I needed for a great stay. The facilities are well maintained and Vicki and Alan are incredibly welcoming. The daily breakfasts were wonderful. The bus was only 5 minutes walk away and the access to bicycles was also great. I will return!

What a piece of paradise in paradise. Quite romantically beautiful in the glamping tents. Vicki and Alan are fantastic hosts, nothing is too much drama and breakfasts are deliciously homemade and vary each day. They have push bikes for free on site but would suggest hiring a car just so you can explore all the beauty of Raratonga and get to the wine shop to enjoy a glass on the balcony of the tent and absorb the view and serenity. We loved our stay :)

🌺This picturesque sanctuary was just what the Dr ordered. It's away from the hustle and bustle and beautiful. The glamping experience was exceptional, just the way we remembered it from nearly a year prior. We love how we both breathed a sigh of relief and contentment, when we arrived, and we're very sad to leave. Vicki & Allen, we will definitely be back.

I had the best stay at Ikurangi. I came to Rarotonga to unwind and Ikurangi was exactly what I needed. The tent was fantastic and comfortable with everything I needed, the breakfasts were amazing - such a treat- and the setting is tranquil. I slept like a baby to the sound of the sea. Vicky and Alan are fantastic hosts and I thoroughly recommend staying here!

The owner and the staff are friendly and very kind. Not a beach facing place but quiet with private lookout surrounded by plants. Free bicycle rental was a helpful service for transportation and carbon emission. Their concept and effort towards being eco friendly was amazing. Wake up with roosters, stay with friendly cats and beautiful mountain view. Start the day with the best tropical breakfast with different menu everyday.

what a beautiful retreat on Rarotonga! Definitely a place like home away from home. Alan and Vicki were beautiful hosts that were always helpful, friendly , and went above to organise anything we planned for our stay. The breakfast they prepared for us was honestly a highlight. The property is unique. Located in what we would call the most beautiful place on the island (picturesque mountains and palm trees everywhere). You get the feeling of being amongst the locals rather than a resort feeling full of travellers. It is also close to the markets, the needle, and muri which we chose to get to on our bicycles ( so much fun). On our next trip back to Rarotonga we would definitely stay on this retreat again. Thank you so much for everything!

Location was peaceful and secluded. Pristine garden surroundings and beautifully maintained accommodation. Bikes available to use during the stay but a scooter or car would be an advantage as is not close to any cafes or restaurants.

Wonderful retreat
We had an amazing stay at Ikurangi Eco Retreat. Luana helped arrange airport transfers as we arrived late. Each morning we were delivered a healthy, delicious, beautifully presented breakfast. And they catered excellently for my boyfriend who is vegan. Both Luana and Haley were very helpful in helping arrange activities and giving local recommendations. The room (we stayed in an Are) was clean, comfortable and had beautiful views over the inland mountains. We loved the sound of the roosters, and you can hear them all over the island,but be aware if a light sleeper. We were greatful to have the bikes for transport but we’re too tempted and hired a scooter which was great fun. No free WiFi but can easily be arranged from retreat. Overall we had a wonderful stay. It was so relaxing to get away from the business of our day to day lives. It was also wonderful to stay somewhere conscious of reducing their impact on their island home. Would highly recommend to anyone looking at going to Rarotonga.

Lovely place
It's a very lovely place and we enjoyed our time there. What made it incredibly difficult was that it was almost impossible to find any staff most of the time which made things difficult, especially as we didn't know how to get around or to the beach or township for food etc. The breakfasts were incredible though and really enjoyed them being delivered every morning to the porch.
