About this Holiday House

2025 Holiday Special Stay 7 nights, get 1 night FREE. Yep, we said free. Like, zero dollars. Valid for stays between: November 29th to December 18th Come for a week, stay for eight nights. One more sunrise, one more sunset, one more chance to forget what day it is. Just book now, and the bonus night is yours. Kakaia Retreat — For When You Want to Unplug and Actually Feel Something Tucked into a quiet green valley in Avana, with mountain views out front and stillness all around, Kakaia Retreat is where you go when your soul says “enough already.” No stress. No traffic. No to-do list. Just the people you love, a big deck, and the sound of island life doing its thing. It’s the kind of place where breakfast turns into lunch, and conversations last longer than your phone battery ever did. Why You’ll Love It Here- Room to Exhale Big, spacious, and unfussy — finally a place where everyone has room to breathe (and not share a bunk with someone’s suitcase). Kids love the king-size bunks. Adults love the sun loungers. Everyone wins. Best of Both Worlds We’re close enough to Muri Beach for cocktails, cafes, lagoon swims, and market snacks. But once you’re done, you’ll be dying to come back to the peace and quiet. Just you, the crickets, and that deep, satisfied sigh. Deck Dinners & Long Lunches Big kitchen? Check. BBQ? Check. Giant tiled deck made for feeding a crowd and telling stories under the stars? Check, check, and check. Cook as much or as little as you want — either way, meals somehow taste better here. Adventure If You Want It Kitesurfing, canoeing, diving, fishing, quad biking — it’s all nearby. Go hard on the thrill-seeking, or just wander around with a coconut and no plans. Totally up to you. Walk Where the Ancestors Walked Take a slow walk up the Avana Passage, where Rarotongan vaka (canoes) once set sail for new lands. The trees here are taller, the air sweeter, and your mind clearer. And bonus: it’s free. Book Now (Before Someone Else Grabs Your Week) This is more than just a place to stay. It’s a place to remember who you are when you're not busy being everything to everyone. So grab your crew. Bring your book. Cancel your meetings. And come stay where peace, play, and proper connection actually live. Kakaia Retreat is waiting. And your 8th night is already on the house.

David Wall
Beautiful house in quite peaceful valley surrounded in lush forests. We really enjoyed our stay at the Kakaia retreat, it has everything you need and more. Our host Ngamata is a lovely lady and she went out of her way to help us. We would definitely love to stay at Kakaia again sometime in the future and would recommend it to friends and family.
