Our Story

If you want to know what it’s really like to experience staying at Magic Reef, read what our guests have to say. We’re consistently rated 5 stars on Trip Advisor, Booking.com, and Expedia. Have a look at our reviews! We try to make sure every guest has the best Rarotongan experience we can give – and that’s what our guests say, too.

Our hosts, Lawrence and Simonne, hail from Waiheke Island, Aotearoa (New Zealand) but are now thrilled to be part of the community here on the largest and most populous of the Cook Islands – beautiful Rarotonga. Committed to making Magic Reef a sustainable, eco-friendly, and most of all unforgettable resort, their passion for hospitality helps make guests feel as though they’re part of the Magic Reef family, too.
