This weeks honeymoon venue is Te Manava Luxury Villas and Spa, in the beautiful Pacific Island of Rarotonga.

All villas are decorated in an exquisite manner, with contemporary touches mixed with traditional Cook Island designs, luscious foliage and tropical flowers.
Glass bifolding doors create an ease of flow and streams of natural light between your own private pool and villa with your own sunbeds, spacious kitchen and barbeque for ultimate honeymoon comfort. Te Manava allows you to recuperate and rest in peace while having the undivided attention from the staff, should you need it.

If you wish, enjoy a secluded and romantic dining experience from your own personal chef. This service brings the luxury of fine dining into your own villa. Or, if you are after something more casual, opt for a grocery service. Guests can provide a grocery list and these groceries will then be ready and waiting for you on your arrival. During the day, enjoy free use of the resorts kayaks, paddleboards and snorkelling gear in the crystal clear waters of the Muri lagoon.
For those that are more adventurous, experience a free scuba diving session. Or, be pampered and relaxed at the Te Manava Spa. Surrounded by the peaceful water garden, the spa offers an array of beauty treatments, with a line of organic products available made from local Cook Island ingredients.

Daylong snorkelling cruises in glass bottom boats are also available around the beauty that is the pristine lagoons, allowing you to explore the protected marine and coral life. We recommend walking the length of Muri Beach at sunrise, the golden sky is definitely a sight not to miss.
