A very warm welcome to the Little Polynesian Resort! We are delighted that you have made the choice to browse our website. Aere mai! During your stay we hope you will have the opportunity to experience the natural beauty of the Cook Islands that is evident in so many ways. Our team will do their utmost to ensure that your experience here is memorable and truly unforgettable.

Accomodation

Experience the epitome of Polynesian luxury in our well-appointed beach and garden accommodations. The romance of traditional Polynesian architecture meets the creature comforts of the West in our modern interpretations of the local dwellings, or Are as they are known.Rendered in a minimalist palette of ivory and local woods, the spare elegance of our rooms takes the romance quotient up a notch. Traditional accents such as Wild Hibiscus, Mangaian (coconut) sinnet weaving on beams as well as a thatched roof with natural pandanus add to the ambience of our South Seas paradise.The Little Polynesian offers all the amenities one would expect from the Cook Islands' most upscale boutique resort. Our overbeach Ares (bungalows) promise aimless days of looking out to the lagoon's turquoise waters and waking up to the gentle sound of waves, while the scent of tropical flowers fills the air around our Pia Tiare (garden units).Whichever you choose, we guarantee you will be immersed in nature at the Little Polynesian.

Rooms

Over the Beach Are (Bungalow)

ur Overbeach Ares (bungalows) will turn even the most jaded of cynics into romantics. Imagine waking up each day to the gentle sounds of waves lapping on the beach. Then spend the rest of the day looking out to clear blue skies and azure waters. The lagoon is only footsteps away should the desire to go for a dip overtake you.
Each of our 10 luxury Overbeach Ares (bungalows) comes with its own private gazebo and daybed overlooking the white sandy beach of Titikaveka. Inviting king size beds also face the lagoon while out-door showers, spa tubs under the stars. Champagne on arrival can all be a part of the Little Polynesian experience.

Pia Tiare (Garden Units)

The scent of tropical flowers fills the air around our four Pia Tiare (Garden units) - providing a special experience that's close to nature. Like the Overbeach Ares (bungalow), each is equipped with a spacious king size bed, out door shower and spa tub and bar fridge. These units also feature a 2 gas burner, microwave and toaster for additional cooking options.
Each Pia Tiare (garden unit) is a spacious, studio size unit. Constructed as part of a duplex, they are also designed with unusually high roofing, a long but almost forgotten trademark of traditional Cook Island architecture. In fact these are the only remaining structures from the original resort development, although completely gutted and refurbished to our new ultra standard. Here again every window has dual options for see-through or private shade settings.
