BLUE LAGOONS OF AITUTAKI

If you’re dreaming of jewelled turquoise lagoons, colourful reefs and deserted sandy beaches that span across 15 islets, you need only think of Aitutaki in the South Pacific’s Cook Islands. There are no roundabouts, no traffic lights, and no traffic jams. Aitutaki does have the beautiful Pacific Resort Aitutaki. This five-star resort is surrounded by the tranquil waters of the lagoon, with 27 luxuriously appointed bungalows and villas. Each air-conditioned room offers uninterrupted views across the lagoon from a private sundeck. Guests can sip on a cocktail at the Black Rock Bar, dine at Rapae Bay Restaurant and be pampered at Tiare Spa. Guests can also go exploring on the Aquatic Eco Trail, a conservation program designed to encourage awareness and education about the fragile underwater ecosystem while showcasing its beauty.
