Location to Airport and town very close. Thank you to Janet, very friendly and excellent communication from before arrival to arriving and on the island. Our Family group enjoyed staying at Vaniva’s Villa. Highly recommend A, Meitaki Maata ##### Leeanne L.

It's in a quiet area and feels so homely. We had a group of 19, with 10 staying at the villa and the rest at a nearby hotel, but this was our meeting point in the mornings and evenings. Such a beautiful place! Check-in and check-out were easy, thanks to Janet, and my elderly parents & kiddies had a smooth experience and really enjoyed it.

Stayed 9 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Laura C. 1 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great home to accomodate groups/families. Excellent set up, hand to everything you need, was great having a washing machine, awesome pool to cool off in, outdoor area was nice to lounge out in, well looked after, efficient communication with the property manager, the only thing is main bedroom side of the house is run on solar so air conditioning cuts out around 1am and the power points are run on this as well… the power runs out fast in that part of the house even after being out with nothing on all day. This was not a big problem at all… an extension cord and fan helped keep the room cool for a good sleep ##### Laura C. Stayed 10 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Harmony D. 8 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We stayed here for 7 days and had such a great experience. The property is very kid-friendly and had everything we needed all utensils, washing machine (with washing powder), WiFi, and even some basic food and water to get us by when we first arrived. The outdoor area is so big and spacious for a family bbq or to lounge around, not to mention the pool. The rooms were spacious, master bedroom has air con and an ensuite. The second bedroom downstairs also has air con. The house also has a bathroom downstairs and one upstairs and are well-equipped, making it super comfortable for a family with young kids.The property manager was fantastic very responsive, helpful, and even waited for us when our flight was delayed, which we really appreciated.The location is perfect too, right at the back of the airport (so convenient!) and only a short drive to the town centre.When we come back to Raro, we’ll definitely be booking here again! ##### Harmony D.
