Nikki & Kalvin
Lolani's Retreat was such a relaxing getaway for us. This was our 2nd visit to beautiful Niue & we preferred staying here over the resort! John & Kareen are the perfect hosts - there if you need them; leaving yummy papaya, passion fruit & cucumbers unexpectedly; not intrusive, but happy to chat & share local knowledge when you want it (ask for it as it's worth it!!). The dogs are an extra bonus:) Everything worked perfectly and was beautifully clean. I think the only we might have wished for, is more of a sea view, but the coolness on the deck & the location of the property to the best snorkeling spots soon overcame that wish!! John & Kareen, thank you! We hope to see you again soon.

We had such a wonderful stay at Lolani's Retreat, the covered deck was amazing and we loved sitting there with a morning coffee to watch the sun come up over the trees or relax after a day of exploring. We felt so welcome and at home and the house had everything that we needed, John and Kareen were happy to give great advice and they checked in regularly to see if we needed anything. The fresh coconut and pawpaw from John was wonderful and we loved being able to hold an uga. Thank you both so much for an amazing stay in Niue - we will be back.

We had such a special time at Lolani's Retreat. The house was perfect for our small family. We had everything we needed, spacious rooms, great deck, lovely bathrooms, beautiful garden, and the dogs were awesome. John & Kareen were such wonderful hosts, very attentive and friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We had beautiful breakfasts of coconut and pawpaw, and Tony was so generous to share his beautifully cooked food. It was such an amazing holiday, one that we will remember forever for so many reasons, including your wonderful hospitality. Thank you John, Kareen & Tony!
