I had an incredible stay at this resort, with friendly and attentive staff making me feel right at home. The location was perfect, just a minute from the main pool and ocean. The food was surprisingly good for such a remote location, although I did wish there were more dinner options. Overall, it's a fantastic place for divers and those looking to relax, but a bit of room updating would enhance the experience even further.

My stay at the hotel was quite enjoyable, especially in the OverWater Bungalow where the view of the clear water and abundant fish was simply breathtaking. The staff went above and beyond in their service, making everything feel special, but the dining options could use some improvement, particularly at breakfast. The slow Wi-Fi can be a drawback for those who need constant connectivity, but if you're there for relaxation, it's a minor issue.

This hotel offers a real island feeling with stunning beach views and a peaceful atmosphere. The beach bungalows are decent but show signs of need for renovation, and the dining options are good but not extravagant. The experience is enhanced by the fantastic snorkeling and diving opportunities nearby, although the hotel might not provide the best value for money compared to other options.

Staying at Kia Ora in Rangiroa was like stepping into paradise! The over-water bungalows are absolutely stunning and provide ultimate privacy. The dining experience, with such delightful foods and friendly service, made our stay even more pleasurable.
