Etu Moana is truly a lovely hotel. The staff are brilliant and the owners are truly lovely. The rooms are clean and spacious with great facilities. Be aware Aitutaki suffers badly from Mosquitoes day & night. Take plenty of spray and do not stay on any of the outer islands as you will get eaten alive!!!! more

We spent a week in Villa 1 at Etu Moana, and loved every second of it. The villas are perfectly designed and well-kept, with lots of thoughtful details and everything you need for a comfortable stay. We especially loved the shower. It's great - sometimes bathrooms leave much to be desired in overseas hotels. Jim and Jo, the owners, are... more

My husband surprised me on our honeymoon to the Cook Islands. Everything about Etu Moana is perfect from the setting, the accomodations, and the staff and owners.

The resort is as fabulous as everyone says but it is the small extras and attention to detail that make it truely superb. I would really like to thank the staff there for helping... more

I am one of those people who read the reviews of Tripadvisor and am used to seeing multiple great reviews with a sprinkling of negative reviews. For the most part Etu Moana has excellent reviews so my standards were high for this hotel. I am happy to say the hotel lived up to its reputation. I stayed in Villa 6,... more

Just as everyone has said, the cabanas were very nice, the staff was wonderful and the location was idyllic. However...the mosquitoes were horrible! My husband and I stayed in several different places on the island during our stay there and even came back to Etu Moana a couple of times for various reasons. Each time the mosquitoes were easily 3... more

Firstly a big thank you to everyone who has placed entries on this site. You were all right of course. Etu Moana has a big reputation now which it lives up to. We celebrated 25 years of mostly married bliss on the beautiful island of Aitutaki. It was so nice to see Roger and Hayley our fellow West Country Brits... more

You’ve read the reports; you’ve seen the photographs. But none of these can prepare you when you see Etu Moana for the first time. The whole complex is truly astonishing! We have just returned from 16 days, yes 16 days at Etu Moana and were married on One Foot Island on May 7th 2008. This was a dream trip come... more
