Lovely big rooms!
Trina, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A lucky find. In my opinion, they are situated in the best position on the island. The poolside environment was quiet, calm and relaxing. Laguna restaurant and personnel are fantastic; the food is delicious, and they are more than willing to accommodate special dietary needs. I rate the Moana,Laguna and airport shuttle team 10********!
Emma, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A great place to visit. Nice clean room, absolutely lovely people, wonderful view out to the reef. Plus where else could you stand in your room, look out past the reef and see Humpback whales leaping out of the water? Went there as a 50th Wedding Anniversary trip. So glad we chose Rarotonga as a destination, and Moana Sands as the hotel.
Kelvin, 8-night trip

Murray, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great outlook and clean modern rooms with beautiful view of pool and ocean. . Pool was fantastic, but needed a few more deck chairs. Didn’t try restaurant as only open at night. No wifi available which was disappointing as most hotels provide it. Had to purchase it and even when we did it only lasted an hour, so waste of money.

Having a full size fridge, a sink, cutlery and crockery in the room is really good. The combination of hotel and semi self catering works so well.
