Little Polynesian Resort

Romantic privacy where turquoise waters meet barefoot luxury
Cook IslandsSouth Pacific· 14 Rooms · £££
Adults-only sanctuary on Titikaveka's white sand

A serene adults-only haven on Rarotonga's southern shore, Little Polynesian marries intimate luxury with genuine island warmth, just steps from a sparkling lagoon.

Location: Set along a palm-fringed stretch of Titikaveka Beach on Rarotonga’s south coast in the Cook Islands, Little Polynesian enjoys direct access to a marine-protected lagoon and sandy shoreline. A gentle 20-minute drive from Rarotonga International Airport, this resort balances easy arrival with the illusion of seclusion.

Rooms: Just 14 rooms, each crafted for peace and romance. Choose between Garden Studios nestled amid lush foliage or elevated Beachfront Bungalows poised on the water’s edge. Both feature vaulted ceilings, private courtyards, outdoor showers and thoughtful modern comforts - including air-conditioning, Nespresso machines and mini-fridges.

Amenities: There’s a glittering salt-water infinity pool gently overlooking the lagoon, a relaxed restaurant and bar serving breakfast through to polished evening meals, and a generous array of non-motorised water sports - including kayaks, paddle-boards and snorkelling gear - all for your enjoyment.

Activities: Spend your days drifting in the lagoon, discovering vibrant coral and reef fish just metres from your bungalow. Cliffside walks, local cafes, lagoon cruises and traditional Polynesian cultural touches are all within reach, curated through a helpful tour desk.

Sustainability: Little Polynesian is intimate by design, treading lightly on its lush environment. It’s compact size, adults-only policy, and respectful architecture in harmony with nature allows for a gentle impact and thoughtful stewardship of both land and lagoon.

What can I say….my son and myself had the most wonderful time in Kenya thanks to the first-class itinerary that Ben and Louise put together for us. We spoke with Ben many times to ensure he ‘got it right’. This was our 2nd visit to Kenya, and it certainly lived up to our expectations and memories. Nothing was too much trouble for all the staff; we cannot have been looked after any better. I would highly recommend Far and Wild; they are so knowledgeable and have personally visited the lodges and areas. We are already planning another visit, and we cannot wait.

I have just returned from the most amazing trip to Tanzania, booked with Far & Wild. Everything went so smoothly from the first time I spoke with them. The planning was great, the itinerary was perfect for us, and the lodges were amazing. We spent 10 nights with an amazing guide, travelling through Northern Tanzania and even got to see the migration, which was a lifetime ambition of mine. This wasn't our first safari, so we were nervous as to how it would compare, but it was spot on. I will certainly be using them again to book our next trip....we're thinking of a relaxing beach stay next time to get over the excitement of safari!

Just back from another amazing F&W organised trip to Namibia with the family (8 adults). Having been there before, Alistair tailored our trip to include our favourite locations and added a new one for us, which we loved.The quality of accommodation and guiding, activities, food and drinks was exceptional throughout. It was good value for the level of luxury we had.

We had a wonderful trip to São Tomé and Príncipe - a small island nation in the Gulf of Guinea with paradise (almost empty) beaches and jungle forest. It was all well organised by Far and Wild and we stayed at a great combination of different types of resorts/hotels. We really recommend this for those who want to experience a pristine destination with few other tourists and friendly and welcoming people. The islands also feel very safe. At Principe, there are no dangerous animals, snakes or whatever, and it was great to be able to hike in the jungle without being very conscious of where to put your hands and feet. Go before everyone else does!

Back home again, basking in the joys of a superb safari. Every aspect you arranged for us, including linking up with Mack Air and Wild Horizons locally to transport us. The choice of camps was ideally situated, comfortable, in good surroundings, and with excellent wildlife on the doorstep and throughout the wider country. The service staff in each looked after us very well, catering was excellent, and the game guides were professional, knowledgeable and helpful. You made us happy, and we recommend you to similar safari enthusiasts with confidence.

Far and Wild went above and beyond to make sure my trip to Zambia was special. I would definitely recommend them and their services to anyone wanting to travel to Africa.

Lovely holiday at the amazing Almanara on Galu beach, a beach like no other. Far and Wild excelled themselves from beginning to end of our holiday in beautiful Kenya.... What a country!,

Wow! These guys are amazing. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Friendly AND efficient! Sorted out our trip (last minute and lots of different family member needs, sorry!) in record time and everything worked like clockwork. Trip of a lifetime to the Masai Mara. Will be back (and use F&W again!)!

It was a dreamy holiday on the Kenyan Coast - Far and Wild, their efficiency and professionalism allowed us to relax and be the happiest family alive !! We cannot fault them, their care and understanding of what we wanted from a holiday ensured we had the most memorable trip. We will be booking with them again for sure!
