MK studio

The accommodation is excellent and everything we needed, close to town, movies and bars, markets on Saturday, swimming past the airport is excellent, Trailor Jacks great restaurant, plus all resorts you can eat & drink at and use facilities. Rarotonga is an excellent island to recharge your batteries.:-) will be back again.

This property is lovely with gorgeous decor

This property is lovely with gorgeous decor. If you are looking for a place to stay in town - this is perfect for 1 person or a couple. The property is only a few months old so everything is fresh and clean. The person who looks after the property locally is great and very helpful. The accommodation was of a high standard - thanks

Welcome to our home away from home 🌺. We the owners can be best contacted via email. We manage bookings and share relevant information with confirmed guests. However your wonderful host who is available when needed while on the island and staying at MK Studio will be Papa Mauri, who lives away from the property and respects your privacy. Please note that your host could change from time to time, however we will be sure to let you know. Meitaki Ma'ata
