Don't take it from us, hear what our previous guests have had to say about their time at Mapere Retreat.
Tuanna stayed in July 2024:
"Best place I have stayed at when returning to Rarotonga! So Beautiful, super clean and had everything I needed. Best part was my 3 little siblings could stay and no hassle at all when requesting! Host ( Kimberly) was so nice and lovely which is a big plus."
John & Allison stayed June 2024:
"Mapere Retreat is truly that, a retreat which makes for a restful getaway. It’s a great location, close to everything and yet tucked away from the busy main road. Hosts were excellent and made our stay easy and relaxing. Modern and comfortable with all the necessary appliances etc. Would highly recommend this property."
Neil stayed February 2024:
"Mapere Retreat is amazing. Martina was amazingly responsive and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. We had a cyclone warning while we were the (false alarm thankfully) and Martina was very responsive with sending someone to prepare the yard and provided a safety and security plan. The house was perfect for our needs. We were there for a combination of work and holiday, for nearly two weeks, and the place was perfectly set up for our needs with a stand up work desk, dual screens, and high speed internet. The little touches really felt like you were staying in a home away from home, instead of sterile commercial accommodation. Can’t recommend enough and looking forward to staying again."
Soreya stayed April 2024:
"What an amazing place. I’ve stayed in so many different properties in Raro and this is the best. Private location, away from road noise but close to everything you need. A perfect location. Amazing little home with everything we needed plus more. Would absolutely stay again Thanks for everything."
Svetlana stayed November 2023:
"A beautifully appointed property, the number of little details was extremely impressive. Located up a small hill, it’s a very private ( the two houses nearby were empty ) and well located house. A small detail, but the power outlets behind the mirror in the bathroom were brilliant for electric toothbrushes. Excellent appliances and very well thought out and equipped kitchen and house. Very comfortable bed, gas hot water ( genuinely hot ). So many little things, the small storage in the outdoor tables, cotton and needles, hose by the front door to wash off sand, the list goes on. It is not really walking distance from anywhere ( there is a close burger bar and petrol station/convenience store ), the benefit to that is a quite relaxing stay, well worth it. Thank you a fantastic stay."
