“A lively, adults-only resort on Rarotonga's north-western coast. Overlooking a dazzling stretch of white sand, this collection of comfortable white-and-cream villas — some with plunge pools — promises a real sense of privacy. Relaxed dining, a small spa, lagoon and swimming pool seal the deal! ”

Gorgeous Resorts in the Remote Pacific
"The Crown Beach Resort and Spa, situated on the sunset side of the island, caters to adults, but allows those 16 and older. No little kids mean there there’s plenty of peace and quiet. Each of the 36 individual villas are stand-alone, so there’s a lot of privacy, and the gardens and waterfalls landscaped around the property give it a tranquil feel."
