Summary: We have stayed at Palm Grove in the past. We love the beachfront units. Even if the weather is poor, the view is still brilliant. The snorkeling in front of the units is extremely good with a wide variety of fish life. The sandy beach is also great. Breakfast is adequate with cereals, fruit, toast, spreads, coffee etc. Plus you can order and pay for more if you need it. Use of kayaks and snorkeling gear is complimentary, if you dont have your own. Wigmores supermarket is just down the road, and the units have a good kitchen for cooking for yourself if you want to.

Summary: Large bungalow with kitchen and nice green garden - just across a small street to an amazing private beach! The restaurant is there for breakfast and dinner. Only suggestion is to please add more variety to the inclusive breakfast-perhaps savoury (boiled eggs, cheese or cold cuts) as the sweet options is not for everyone (health related), especially when staying for more than a few days. Overall great place to unwind and enjoy the scenery.

Summary: Palm Grove was good for what it is, but can tell the garden rooms dont get as much love as the beach villas. The staff are friendly and the breakfast is convenient but its not luxury if thats what you're after

Summary: Second year staying at Palm Grove Beachfront Studio. We will definitely be back What a beautiful view with comfy bed and breakfast included. Snorkeling right from the beach in front of the studios. Quiet and private with help from staff if you need. We are from Hawaii and this is where we choose to vacation.

Summary: We've visited Palm Grove every time I've visited Rarotonga, and we will continue to stay everytime we come. The beach villa was the best experience we have had. We loved the privacy, access and the villa itself! Love the happy hour and the free snorkel/kayak equipment. The bus stop outside made transport around the island easy. The SPCA is just down the road, and a fast travel to walk the dogs in the morning. We didn't need our room cleaned everyday - due to our own reasons, but the equipment they left made cleaning the room a breeze. Thank you Palm Grove for an exceptional stay-cation!!
