The tiny island of Rarotonga is situated due south of Hawaii
at 22 degrees south latitude. The main road around
the island is 32 kilometers long.
Ambala Gardens is in the south eastern part of the island. Only
a short 3 minute walk from here to the Muri beach area will
have you choosing amongst some of the finest restaurants
on the island. These include The Flame Tree, Sails,
Stephanos and the Point which is situated at the exclusive Muri Beach
Club Hotel. Along with that you of course have probably
the best beach on the island with warm calm waters and the
best people watching there is. Along this resort strip
bicycles and cars can be rented from either
Budget Rent a Car or Island Rentals. There are also several
small convenience stores located along the strip.
A short ten minute car ride will take you to the Tamarind
House restaurant, which is probably the best on the island. Another
few minutes past that is the main town of Avarua with it’s
variety of shops, restaurants, and services such as Internet
café’s, Post Office, hospital, banks with ATM’s,
police station, and petrol stations.
Rarotonga is served by Air New Zealand. They have
daily flights in from Auckland, and weekly non stop
service from Los Angeles.
Do come and visit this island paradise, with its warm temperatures,
cooling trade wind breezes, and sunny skies. You holiday
here will be as memorable as it will be relaxing.
