This place is Paradise. Grateful to be able to enjoy what Motu offers.
“One of our best relaxing holidays ever. Fabulous place, very peaceful. So much effort has gone into creating MOTU . The service is fantastic, staff extremely helpful and all those little touches, fruit provisions and beautiful bakery products on Sunday. Loved receiving the paper in the mornings. Hope to see you again next year.” – Jenny J
Best Accommodation & Staff
“Absolutely amazing location!! I did countless hours of research after deciding we wanted to visit cook islands and then found Motu. This place is PARADISE, is had everything we were looking for plus more. The beautifully renovated villas are to die for.
To say my expectations were exceeded would be a vast understatement, from the moment we first made contact at the airport to our almost tearful goodbye.
But the best thing about our trip was each and every staff member who went over and beyond. You guys made our trip even more memorable. Thank you so much.” – Dream78915

A true paradise
“This is the nicest place my wife and I ever stayed at. Everything was absolutely fantastic. The lagoon was one the best snorkeling spot around the island (hundreds of fish, giant clam, turtle…), the villa was stunning, the common grounds absolutely beautiful. Add to that the fact that the staff was simply perfect, everyone was nice, friendly and caring. We had the chance to meet Mii who made us feel really cared for and treated us in such special ways that we felt like family. This is quite possibly the best holiday we’ve ever been to, it was that good that on the last day, we were already looking into booking our return trip next year. Could not recommend enough and would highly encourage everyone to go there for a very special time away!” – Thomas B.
