We loved our stay at Black Rock Villas. We couldn't fault the villa or grounds in any way, it was well equipped and immaculately clean. Many of our friends and family stayed at nearby resorts and we found Black rock to be far superior but at a similar (if not cheaper) cost. Our hosts were so friendly, relaxed and accommodating,...

Black Rock Villas was the perfect holiday choice and we would highly recommend staying there if you're going to Rarotonga. It is very suitable for couples or families. Our hosts Holger, Sven and Mieke were fantastic. Nothing was too difficult and they did everything to help make our holiday as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. We really appreciated their warm... More

Spacious, clean, private and well equipped villa sharing a lovely garden and salt water pool. All water is filtered, so you can drink straight from the tap. Wonderful, polite and helpful owners. Walk to the beach in a couple of minutes, or watch the reef and sea from the pool. It's a very beautiful and relaxing spot. Recommend also eating... More

A wonderful place to float around the pool on a lilo whilst sipping cold beer!

Highly recommended - this is a quiet, beautiful location overlooking the lagoon and ocean, with only 2 villas and a restaurant on the property. Our villa was well-appointed, and very comfortable - the ocean breezes blew through the rooms and the fans overhead meant the temperature was always pleasant. It was an easy stroll down the driveway and over the... More

Villas are a really good size must be around 100sq metres, fully equipped and very clean. Good for groups as each Villa has completly seperate bathrooms and bedrooms. The pool is also excellent. It's a pity about the one negative review as I really don't see how it is justified as we experienced none of the issues raised. Make sure... More

We hired both villa's for our families and had our wedding in the garden. We can not say enough about how amazing our hosts were. They went out of their way to make our day perfect. They arranged extra pots of flowers for the garden and then placed them in the garden in the rain. Holger and Sven are brilliant... More

If you would like a place to chill out then Back Rock Villas is for you. My 21 yr old son and I stayed for just on a week, during this, the supposed cyclone season. The weather has been almost perfect and we have enjoyed our stay tremendously. The Pool here at Black rock Villas is exceptional and we lost... More

We (4 adults & 1 child) stayed at Black Rock Villas on the last night of our 10 day holiday following a trip to Aitutaki. We were greeted by wonderful hosts, who while serving a full restaurant (open Sat/Sun only) of hungry guests, managed to ensure we settled in. As the restaurant was fully booked, we were waitered on in... More

We stayed at the Black Rock Villas again this February for 3 weeks, and again it was just perfect. Mieke, Holger, Sven, Toru and of course Lucy made our stay so enjoyable. It was a good season for fruit, there was so much of it that we couldn't eat it as fast as it fell from the trees. We rented... More
