About this property

Paere House, Snorkeling Heaven

Just renovated and across the road from Rarotonga’s top snorkeling spot “fruits of Rarotonga” (a marine reserve) is Paere House. An ideal home for all things beachy.

Fruits of Rarotonga boast pristine waters, a deep lagoon (ideal for swimming at all tides) and lots of white sand. Here is also a bus stop there for getting to and fro.

The house is a very roomy high ceilinged two bedroom home and has a excellent covered veranda for outside relaxing and dining. All rooms have ceiling fans. The kitchen is open plan and blends into the living area. Off the living area are the two bedrooms.The house is fully screened to keep the mozzies at bay.

The large front yard is ideal for kids of all ages as is the lagoon across the road. Paere is ideal for a family needing to play in the sun and sea.

Paradise at Paere
We loved everything about our stay at Paere House. It’s a complete home away from home, with many well-thought-out touches to make your stay on Rarotonga easier. Communication with Eddie is a breeze, and the snorkelling at Tikioki (right across the road) is unparalleled. Meitaki maata, Eddie, for an awesome stay - see you next time!

A little slice of Heaven
Our stay at Paere House was nothing short of superb. The location is terrific - 20 minutes away from the airport. 5 minutes from Muri. 2 from Charlies. 10 from Wigmores. It's across the street from one of the best snorkeling spots on the Island. The home is clean, tidy and well appointed. The fans keep the home wonderfully cool. The amenities are everything you need to cook your own meals, clean your own clothes and lie out in the sun after a day of swimming. There are ants, but there are ants everywhere in Raro. You learn to clean your dishes right away and keep your food in the fridge. Eddie, the property manager was terrific with his instructions and responsive to all of our questions. This was our second stay at one of Eddie's properties and I can guarantee that our third will be with him as well. Deal with confidence!

Beautiful Raro
The property on the inside was clean and comfortable and well equipped, however the outside of the property was a bit tired and run down, just needed a lick of paint and the railings to be fixed - which wasn’t well represented in the photos. The hotspot for the internet didn’t work during our stay so you are best to purchase a SIM at the airport if you need connection to the outside world. Eddie was very easy to deal with and very helpful. We found there wasn’t any furniture for relaxing outside, Eddie provided some sun loungers for us which were much appreciated, enabling us to relax on the huge lawn. We loved the location which was directly across the road from the beach. It was great to be able to take advantage of the snorkelling. Lots of dogs and chooks around which are quite noisy at night - all very friendly though, although we did have a couple of odd shoes go missing, which we could only assume were pinched by one of the dogs, so keep your shoes inside if staying. Overall an enjoyable stay.
