About this house rental

On a massive section overlooking Raros interior rests Kani Darling, a recently built modern two bedroom home that has everything needed for a blissful sundrenched break.

The home is a 300 metre stroll to one of Raros most beloved stretches of sand, Papaaroa Beach... 600m of white sand and blue lagoon.

Kani Darling is wrapped by a spacious covered deck, perfect for letting the mind wander... outside dining, and drinking Gin and Tonics (if you need garnish there's a number of citrus trees on the section).

Inside is a full kitchen (and dishwasher), that opens to the lounge. The bedrooms are at the back of the home, both have sliding doors that open to the deck and let the tropical breeze in. One of the bedrooms has an ensuite.

Kani Darling is perfect for couples wanting to do not much but decompress, swim or tan. Its off the beach so you can enjoy the house and outside even if the trade winds blow.

The lagoon down the road is ideal for snorkling and swimming, you may even see some turtles.

Everything was fantastic. Communication with Eddie about anything else was never an issue. Enjoy.

We love staying here and felt really comfortable. Will definitely look into booking it again on our next trip to Rarotonga.

We arrived at the property at night time just (before midnight) & as we drove up closer there was a very bad smell.(Not the best start or welcoming that we were expecting on the start of our holiday). As it was already late and we were tired from our trip so we went to bed. We left it until the morning so we could see clearly what the smell was coming from. Found the smell was from a dead chicken (and seem like it had been there for at least). Messaged the host to let him know & also sent a text. Did not receive any response until later on (might have been the next day)? . The previous response prior to coming to the property was quicker but this time it wasn't) & response we got was clearing messages (I had also sent a text in the morning) and also no response. By the time he messaged back (well my Husband had gone out & removed it). Not ideal thing to do when on holiday.. After telling the host this & after a few messages later, Husband had to tell me to just stop replying (as he didn't want this to ruin our trip) and to just try and enjoy our holiday.
