Highly recommended if you want a certain and confirmed booking for some scooters around Aitutaki which is a must in our view as they are such good fun.  We booked them well in advanced as they can be in high demand during the busy periods.  Alone was amazing with keeping us up to date and communicating the confirmed dates, such a pleasure to meet in person.  We needed the scooters for a bit longer than we were expecting and Rino accommodated us.  They even delivered the scooters to the resort for us - awesome customer service and cannot ask for more - Meitaki Ma'ata. (Brent & Kelly)

Scooter Hire - Awesome!

Loved it! This must be the top value for money on Aitutaki. We had one of the best sea views of all, better than many much more expensive places. Ani and Alone were wonderful, looking after us so well and even returned a charging cable I carelessly left behind. Our room was tidied every day and breakfast was waiting for us when we got up.

Best sea views for least money

From the moment we got off the plane and were greeted by Nga with gorgeous, fragrant flower lei we knew we were somewhere special.  By staying at Rino's, a mid range water front motel with rental scooter/car facilities we got far more than we expected from our visit to Aitutaki.  Rino's far exceeded our expectations.

The staff are just amazingly warm and welcoming people, more than happy to cater to our needs, interests and changes we had to make to our initial plan.  They are an endless pit of island information, humor and love, and really helped make our stay.  The room service was wonderful and thorough without being intrusive and the breakfast were TO DIE FOR!  I can truely say I have been ruined for any otherl types of fresh juice after having the wonderful fresh full flavoured offering with our breakfast every morning!

Unfortunately we didnt get to meet Rino, after being told so many good things about him and his knowledge, but we missed out on nothing - all the other women (and odd men lol) of Rino's told us everything we needed to know.

I am already planning a return trip and cant imagine considering anywhere else to stay but Rino's.

Cant Fault Rino's

Had a fantastic stay here for 5nights with my wife and our 2 young daughters (4 & 6yo). The Bungalows are clean and fresh. Just what we needed. Close to everything, takeaways, food stores all in walking distance.
Perfect place for families with children, as the beach there is safe. 
The staff are awesome and make a mean tropical breakfast. Rino’s have rental vehicles as well. But get in early to book one 

Great week at Rinoa’s

We had such a wonderful vacation! Rino’s was just perfect! The location is amazing and the newly renovated cottage was spotless. The bed was very comfortable, the room very spacious and the bathroom clean and modern. We had hot water 24 hours a day. The sunsets were just crazy beautiful from the terrace. 
We also rented bikes and a scooter from Papa Rino - he’s the sweetest person you’ll ever meet. He personally picked us up and dropped us off at the airport (at 87!). The breakfast is good with lots of tropical fruits.
Last but not least, if you’d like to kiteboard (or learn), get in touch with Mike Lee (Kiteboard Aitutaki).
Welcome to Paradise! We’ll surely come back!

Perfect spot for a 2 week kiting trip

Me and a friend were picked up by Rino himself from the airport. We had our hire car there ready for use and were greeted kindly by him and Jennifer (the lady who cooks brekky each day). 
The brekfast was ready for both of us and OMG it was amazing! Fresh fruits and good coffee.
We were there both shown our room that leads out to the beach, and it exceeded our expectations, especially for the price. It's very affordable. 
We enjoyed our stay because the staff were so welcoming, I have no idea why there a 3 bad reviews when we couldn't find any fault in the accomdation, as well as other guests who were staying there.

Thank you papa rino and staff for everything! We will be back 

Love always
Rosa and ofo


Best accomdation in aitutaki 

For a fraction of the price of the smart resorts on Aitutaki you can have your own beachfront studio apartment. It’s clean, comfortable and has aircon! A real treat on these small islands. Facing the lagoon and the spectacular sunsets, my private decking had a day bed and table and chairs. Yes the bathroom is a bit tired but Papa Rino was undertaking renovations while I was there. There are cheaper garden rooms but, seriously, book early and get a beachfront one! Papa Rino is a bit of an institution - I believe he’s in his 80s and still reads the paper without glasses. He also runs a car/scooter hire place (you need a minimum 125cc licence to hire a scooter in the Cook Islands - not the automatic 50cc that normally comes with UK licences). 
Lovely breakfast - fresh fruit, cereals & fresh pancakes! They’ll help you organise diving or snorkelling trips (I can recommend Teking’s snorkelling safari). It is a blue sky hot spot so if you bought a voucher in Rarotonga it will work here too. For self caterers there is just one supermarket (neiba) open on a Sunday. Most of the small local restaurants close...apparently I’m told the resort hotel restaurants are open (but they’re well out of my budget), the boat shed and Koru cafe - beyond the airport (a good scooter ride from Rino’s) are also open. On Sunday I suggest you go to CICC church at 10 (especially if you’re there the 1st Sunday of the month when everyone wears white) to listen to the amazing singing (services last 2hrs or so - I sat at the back and snuck out during a hymn after an hour or so). Make sure you check the weather forecast for a sunny day before booking your trip out onto the lagoon. Rightly thought of as one of the most spectacular lagoons in the Pacific, you need the sun to show of those incredible water colours! Love love loved it!

Just a gem of a place...

i stayed in the garden view room for 3 nights and this is one of the most affordable rooms on the island. the kitchen and bathroom were fantastic with cooking amenities. the room had 2 fans and a clothes horse to dry towels and bathers. my rate included airport pickup/dropoff and breakfast. breakfast was delicious. wifi was blue sky and a good connection. i was able to hire a bike from next door and bronwyn helped me confirm my tour pickup times by phoning. 
beach wasnt great but go have a cocktail at one of the nearby resorts and swim there. would recommend 

clean, comfy and affordable 

For a budget motel this is great value: airport pick up, serviced apartment, great bathroom, breakfast! 

While the beach does not quite match any brochure it is ok and affords a view of the reef, ships and diggers. 

The motel is close ish to other restaurants and the town, the bed is comfortable and there is aircon (basic). Some lights are a  bit odd. 

People are friendly and helpful.

Value

Bungalows with ample space, comfortable beds, everything a bit worn out, but will get refurbished soon. Nice view to the shore and sea from two of the bungalows. Good breakfast, nice landlord. Car rental at the facility possible. No corals and only a few fish to be seen in the lagoon du to climate change
