The space
The Studio is located near the main road and backs up onto lush gardens. Built in 1968, it is more of the rustic variety and well-suited for the independent & budget traveler. A two minute walk down the garden path takes you to the beach. Renovated and well kept, with two burner cooktop, fridge/freezer kitchenette, queen bed, fan and a great gas hot water shower, it is a delight to stay in either short or long term.
Bed linen & towels (both bed and bath) are provided. There is an on site guest laundry, snorkeling gear and a BBQ.

Across the road is popular Mai'i Cafe with music a couple nights per week and when the occasion calls for it, rugby games on a big screen. It's a friendly place for locals and tourists alike which quietens down between 9:30 and 10:30pm.

Hi,

I've been living on Rarotonga since Octob (Phone number hidden by Airbnb) , when I arrived here after living in Fiji for a year with my husband. Upon stepping onto land I fell in love with Rarotonga and have called this beautiful island my home ever since.

Originally from California, we went in search of a more peaceful, easily sustainable and less influenced by the materialistic world place to come home. The Cook Islands is still, after over 50 years, a place where one can truly relax and rest in the goodness of life.

When I am not looking after guests or visitors, you will find me out in the garden with Little Boy, the kittens and Zoe nurturing seedlings and my nursery of noni plants.

I'm often on property and always only a short trip away in case you need anything.

Wishing you a very warm welcome and relaxing time away.

Sunny regards, Gwen

During your stay

I live on property and also have a full-time helper by the name of Jojo. Both of us are available if you need us, however we do cater to the more independent traveler who likes to read books and do their own thing. We won't ignore you, but we certainly won't be asking you a bunch of questions. If on the other hand, you have questions that our extensive compendium or the guest book can't answer, we are here to help.
