Not worth the money
This hotel is tired, old and in need of an upgrade. The service is poor... i waited 3 hours for food one day and 1 hour for fresh towels. There are so many other beautiful hotrls on the island that you would think the raratongan woould step up... it doesnt. Friends of mine arrived to a dirty room that they then had to wait another r hours before checking in. Ultimately, id never stay here again.
