Peaceful
Aloha! Carlo's place is a peaceful oasis with a short stroll to the beach. I enjoyed dinner on the patio at night, the amenities of a full kitchen, beach supplies, and a spacious place. Carlo is responsive in communication and kind. He shared his knowledge of the area and nearby restaurants. Carlo kindly picked me up from the airport on the night of my arrival. I appreciated my time at the Tree House and would stay again!

Great for a family getaway
Nice location very close to the beach and edgewater resort. Kids enjoyed it and its got plenty of private outside room for them to entertain themselves safely. Friends at nearby resorts all said they'd prefer our accommodation for future trips.

Peaceful, private, and spacious.
We were in Rarotonga with a large group of friends (30+ people). Most of the group stayed nextdoor at the Edgewater. We preferred to have a private, peaceful place to get some time out when we needed it. The Tree House was our sanctuary. It provided the peace, privacy, and space that the Edgewater (with lots of friends) could not. Plus everything you need in a kitchen and laundry, loads of snorkling gear, and other handy items like torches and umbrellas. Carlo is a great host too. He was happy to chat and answer our questions, and also discreetly leave us to enjoy the Tree House and grounds. Thank you for hosting us.

Treehouse accommodation
The host Carlo was lovely, very helpful. Accommodation itself was very clean and everything we expected and more. The beach was at the end of the driveway, one of the main bus stops was 3 doors down at Edgewater. We ate most of our meals at the table outside. Filtered water available on tap. Would recommend staying here.

Tree House in Arorangi
The house is comfortable and well equipped. It is a very short walk to the ocean, where you can walk on the beautiful beach. Carlo picked us up at the airport and stopped at the grocery store so we could get some provisions for our stay and also showed us a few restaurants close to the house. He also brought us back to the airport when we left. We rented a car, which I think is necessary to really see the island and to get to good swimming beaches and restaurants.

New Year's in Rarotonga
Carlo and Roberta were the perfect host that make you feel like family. My place was very clean, fully equipped with all cooking & cleaning necessities, it was home away from home. I spent some time with Roberta going to antique shops and places i didn't see during my previous visit, it was great. On our last night Carlo cooked for us a homemade fabulous authentic Italian dish. It happen to have been my daughters favorite and we truly enjoyed it. Carlo & Roberta "Mahalo Nui Loa" from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, hospitality, and true friendship. We will definitely be back :) Pegi and Rachel

10 Stars!!
We enjoyed our stay at the Tree House for 4 nights and 5 days. Carlo and Roberta were wonderful hosts who provided reassurance and advise for our stay on the beautiful island. Transportation to and from the airport by Carlo was much appreciated and the public bus was easy to use and get around the island without renting a car or motorbike. Having the Edgewater hotel next door was also convenient for the ATM and other food and entertainment options. The home itself was very clean and decorated in the island style. All appliances worked well for making meals as needed. We also enjoyed having the option to do our own laundry before we left to Aitutaki for a few days. The yard was well maintained with tropical flowers and coconut trees adding natural beauty to the landscaping. It was nice to unplug from our devices for a few days as the internet could be spotty but we adjusted to not checking our devices unless absolutely neccesary. Definitely recommend this place!!

Perfect Raro spot
This was our first time in Raro and we consider ourselves rather lucky that we picked The Tree House and Roberta & Carlo as our hosts for our 2 weeks family holiday. The Tree House is easily accessible, about 5 min drive from the airport just in behind Tumunu's restaurant. The house is tucked away down a little lane, which is very quite. It's a 3 min walk down the lane to get to the beach. The property has everything we needed and plenty of space for the four of us. The garden is very private with plenty of space to sunbath or sit in the shade of mature trees. We had a rental car which was very handy to get around, but there are also a number of restaurants within easy walking distance. The Edgewater is next door, The Flying Turtle Cafe is across the road, and OTB (fine dining) is a 20 min walk down the beach. Carlo & Roberta are great hosts, always there to help without ever being intrusive. Their restaurant tips were great of us newbies, and we were lucky enough to have a proper Italian restaurant dinner on our deck one night, prepared by Carlo! Definitely ask him for his menu if you get the chance :) We'd happily stay again!

A Fantastic Ten Days Staying at The Tree House, Arorangi
Thank you Carlo for a fantastic, quiet and peaceful stay at the Tree House Cottage. From the moment we arrived at the Airport you were the perfect host giving us a short tour on the way home to ensure we knew where everything was. Situated right next to the Edgewater Resort was absolutely perfect, as we had several meals there and even the snorkelling right there was spectacular! It made it very easy to also catch the bus. The cottage was clean and beautifully fitted out with such thoughtful additions supplied, like a rechargeable torch for our night walks home from the beach, an umbrella for sun or rain and the list goes on - everything we could have needed! The kitchen had everything you could need, even coffee making equipment. It was home away from home! We absolutely enjoyed the meal you and Roberta cooked for us - definitely the best “Italian Restaurant”! Thank you for making our trip the best we could have hoped for! We wish you a wonderful season ahead! Johan and Maria

Great Location in Rarotonga
What a great find - The Tree House is a perfect place to stay. 2 minute walk to beach and 2 resorts handy with a short walk along the beach. Carlo was the perfect host and the flat was sunny and private. In my opinion much better than a resort . We will be back.

We absolutely loved this house! It was perfect for our family of 5. The location was amazing, with restaurants, grocery stores and car hire close by. It was also lovely and quiet there! The wee private walk way to the beautiful beach with great snorkelling was awesome! The house itself was very clean and tidy and just what we needed, with cooking facilities/equipment, washing facilities and 2 bathrooms was a bonus! We would happily stay here again!

Great value for money. Good snorkeling out front and being right next to the Edgewater resort, Tumunu and other restaurants was just great. The good value for money allowed us to extend our stay just that little bit longer and meant that we really got settled into what was a fantastic Raro experience. Highly recommended !.
