We got greeted at airport with lovely fresh flower Leis and transported back to hotel both ways, included in price. We stayed in lagoon view room 3. The food onsite restaurant was nice and prices were reasonable. People came from other resorts to eat at Tava’e restaurant. We didn’t use the pool’s as a little chilly in June. The sea was much much warmer. There was water equipment to use, paddle boards, kayaks etc with dedicated person to look after you all day. Island night was nice too. $80 for the smorgasbord with a small dance show afterwards. This place has everything you need here.

Our room was immaculate all the small details like the sliding door insect screen, room service hook, pool access & having your own outdoor seating area. All the staff were wonderful especially Andrew he was amazing! That was my 2nd visit to Aitutaki & the beginning of my holiday that made it memorable!

This resort is outstanding, from the excellent rooms to the amazing staff, nothing could be faulted. The room was large for four adults, clean and in beautiful condition. The resort itself has two beautiful pools and is right on the beachfront, so very easy to do whatever you want. Snorkeling right off the beach - bring some aqua socks. Amazing - 10 out of 10 for sure.

My first time in Aitutaki and I booked 3 nights at Resort Tava'e. I loved this resort. Staff were excellent! They organised pick up and drop off to the airport which was free. The two rooms were placed next to each other which was perfect for us. The set up of the room was relaxing, with a small couch in front of the bed, a massive TV infront of the couch, a little kitchen with microwave, hot plate with frying pan, a pot, toaster, jug, and a good size fridge. The bathroom is massive, I loved the double shower. The room has air con split system with a fan above the bed/couch. Our rooms were 14 & 15 so our view was of the double pools and if you were lucky you could see a little of the ocean. They have an ice machine near reception and their water is drinkable from the tap. Biggest highlight for my daughter was unlimited wifi which was perfect for downtime at night. They do have a restaurant with great food and a beautiful view of the water. I look forward to going back to Aitutaki and staying at Resort Tava'e.

Gorgeous property and room! The views are incredible and the newly updated room was perfect. The sunsets here are stunning! The staff was all very accommodating. My main complaint is that the room was advertised to fit 5 people but only had beds for 4 so beware of additional fee if you want a rollaway bed for 5th person.

It's brand new, with comfortable rooms and incredibly friendly, helpful staff. We stayed in a poolside room and enjoyed the view of the coloured pool lights at night. We spent every day kayaking, swimming, and snorkelling directly off their beach. It's honestly such a lovely resort that we plan to return as soon as we can.

Just book! The team here couldn’t do enough for us and the place is brand new. The resort is right on the beach with great snorkelling directly off the beach (head up towards the pacific resort and drift back) and I’ve heard that the restaurant is mere weeks away from opening, which will make it even better. Great value for aitutaki, I don’t think there’s better for the price.

Absolutely loved our stay!

Almost new (opened in 2023) oceanfront accommodation. Everything looks brand spanking new including the shuttle van. True Polynesian hospitality. We felt like family more than just guests. From the airport greeting and pickup until the airport drop off and farewell, the staff were the friendliest employees ever. The front desk, the housekeeping staff, the pool cleaners, the grounds maintenance, and whoever else we met were all the best. We are looking forward to a return trip in two years with our four adult children and their families. The location on the beach was incredible. The kayaking was fun and the snorkeling was top notch. Because of the barrier reef, it’s also a great place for small children to swim.
