Red Sunset Villa, Ara Tapu, Arorangi

There's nothing more special than owning your own slice of tropical paradise and sharing it with family and friends. Rarotonga is just over a three hour flight from New Zealand and you can be swimming or lounging on your beach within 30 minutes of your arrival - that's very special in this day and age! Red Sunset Villa is an absolute beach front retreat on the west side of Rarotonga. It's private and yet handy to the local cafes and restaurants. The villa is only six years old and is immaculate in every respect. The simple architect design has the kitchen, dining and open plan living area at the northern end and five double bedrooms stretching south - all rooms open onto the large patio area to the swimming pool - the white sand beach with all day swimming is a hop and a jump away. Next stop the horizon! Sipping cocktails watching the brilliant sunsets in the warm balmy climate overlooking the reef doesn't get any better. The villa has all the facilities you would expect to find in an international class beachfront property. The owners don't use the retreat as much as they would like and have now put it on the market for the next family to enjoy.
