Holiday Rentals in Arutanga

Our two-week stay at Are Kapakapa was absolutely incredible. This family-run gem offers a unique blend of comfort, hospitality, and natural beauty that truly makes it stand out. From the moment we arrived, Vaa and Joliene, the wonderful hosts who manage the property, welcomed us with such warmth and genuine care that we instantly felt at home. Their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring our stay was perfect made the experience unforgettable. The property itself is a slice of paradise. Surrounded by lush coconut trees, the entire house exudes a peaceful charm. One of the highlights of our stay was the close proximity to the beach—just a short walk away. It’s hands down one of the best beaches we’ve ever visited, with pristine sands and crystal-clear waters that made every moment there magical. The house is fantastic—spacious, immaculately clean, and well-equipped to provide a cozy and comfortable experience. The cool sea breeze and the thoughtful layout of the house ensured we were always comfortable. It’s clear that Vaa and Joliene have put great effort into making Are Kapakapa a home away from home for their guests. Another highlight of our stay was exploring the fruit trees around the property. The coconuts were a delightful treat, perfect for a refreshing snack after spending time at the beach. Every aspect of Are Kapakapa reflects the love and effort that Vaa and Joliene pour into their hospitality. The combination of the peaceful atmosphere, thoughtful amenities, and personal touches made our stay truly special. Whether you’re enjoying the serenity of the house, savoring fresh coconuts, or soaking up the beauty of the nearby beach, it’s an experience that stays with you. If you’re searching for a place that combines comfort, natural beauty, and an authentic family vibe, Are Kapakapa is the ideal choice. We left with cherished memories and are already counting down the days until we can return!

Katrina the daughter of the owners was absolutely unbelievable. There was a few technical issues when we arrived and she had them all sorted with a personal visit. She even took us to the shop to get some groceries, beautiful beautiful place to stay immaculate grounds out the front. There’s a swimming hole channel that’s just a few hundred metres up the beach overall could not fault. Across the road there is a fantastic little coffee shop for breakfast and they do lovely Asian food for dinner. Had the best sausage roll ever. Not really recommend this location and property.

My parents spent a wonderful 5-day, 4-night trip here. It was an unforgettable journey, featuring not only world-class ocean views and lagoons, but also an extremely thoughtful and friendly host. The host provided airport transfers and even took them to the supermarket. During their stay, perhaps due to the intense heat, my mother felt unwell. The host not only provided emergency medication but also drove them to the hospital, reminded my mother to drink plenty of water, and even gave them two coconuts. Every day was filled with the host's heartfelt care. We are extremely grateful.

Idyllic beachfront location with only 8 large detached chalets. Well equipped. Lovely breakfast provided by the pool. Very relaxed ambiance with so few guests - we were often the only people on the beach. Lagoon is shallow but OK for swimming with plentiful fish. Provision of bicycles, e-scooters and 2 electric golf carts make it easy to get around this small island.

Convenience of all facilities, the wonderfully friendly and helpful staff. Who left us to do our own thing unless we needed something. The wonderful community - Making us feel so welcome... The warm weather, the crystal clear lagoon's, and so much more!

Loved the location and the beautiful views. Excellent holiday home.

This place was easily the best place we’ve stayed during our 7 months of travelling!! Ned and Greta are just the most amazing hosts and will do everything to make sure you have an amazing stay. They picked us up at the airport and gave us a little tour of some of the best spots on the island. Ned even invited us to the golf club and offered to transport us so we could drink to our hearts content! We didn’t take up the offer of going with Ned on a lagoon tour as we had other plans the day they were heading out but it definitely sounded better than ours so make sure you go if you get the chance! There were bikes ready for us to rent straight away. They were very reasonably priced and when we had trouble getting it started whilst out and about, Ned was with us in minutes to help sort it. The place itself was absolutely spotless - genuinely never seen shared accommodation that was kept in such great condition. The bath mats and towels in the bathroom were replaced every day and they even changed the shower curtains, bathroom curtains and sofa covers whilst we were there. There was more kitchen equipment then you could possibly dream of and they even had things like sun block and insect spray if you needed it. The fresh fruit every day was also so lovely. The place was airy and light, rooms were really big and common spaces were lovely to relax in. Beds were incredibly comfortable. Not a bad word to say about this place and the hospitality of these guys is second to none.

Very friendly owner helps a lot. House is tidy and with good location.
