Award winning Ikurangi Eco Retreat is the Cook Islands first purpose-built eco accommodation and glamping hotel created to give visitors to Rarotonga the option of a getaway that doesn’t compromise the environment. Set amongst organic tropical gardens and local plantations with dramatic mountain views, get back to nature and indulge in a luxurious eco escape like no other.

All guests enjoy a complimentary daily tropical breakfast delivered to your room featuring the organic fruit abundant on our property. Expect chia seed pudding with cacao nibs, bircher and island smoothie, croissants with smashed avocado – just to name a few. Locally roasted coffee and tea facilities are available in your room at all times. For a night in, we recommend our sumptuous grazing platters prepared and delivered by our private chef featuring a selection of local delicacies.

Also included is free bicycle hire to explore the island. Day and night markets, shops and dining options are only a short cycle away. Rarotonga offers an impressive range of cafés and restaurants and we’ll happily share some of our favourites with you. Onsite reception and tour desk is open 7 days with friendly local advice on all the island has to offer.

Nestled in a tropical garden under the stunning vista of the Takitumu mountains on the north-east side of Rarotonga, we have chosen this location for its natural beauty and serenity. Being set back from the lagoon ensures our retreat and guests have a minimal impact on our marine environment.

Ikurangi offers guests the choice of a fully furnished Luxury Safari Tent with outdoor “jungle” ensuite or a traditional Tropical Are (Polynesian style studio) with private deck. An intimate boutique resort, our four Safari Tents and three Are have been strategically placed to ensure each room enjoys privacy and views of our pristine environment. NB: adults only 12+.

Centrally located, we are 400m from the ocean reef, 5km from the main township of Avarua and 4km in the opposite direction from world-famous Muri and the best swimming beaches in Rarotonga.

Think luxury in an ultra-romantic tropical setting where visitors to our beautiful island can leave feeling like they’ve been a part of something that positively impacts our environment, community and economy.

 

Yoga Venue and Group Retreats:

Take a few days from the real world to focus on you. We love to share our little piece of paradise and think our property lends itself perfectly to groups wanting to reconnect with their minds, bodies, and nature.

We can offer exclusive use of our resort and have put together several packages that will suit a variety of needs and budgets. We work with you to tailor your perfect group package.
