3.5 star property
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (197)
"We found Magic Reef to be an absolutely ideal resort property. The bungalows are very well designed and appointed and each has a view of the beach. The gardens are beautifully maintained and the waterfront gazebo and deck area was a lovely place to spend time watching the waves crash on the reef in the distance. Cars were available for rent on site which was very convenient and there were restaurants within walking distance along the beach - how great is it to walk along a sand beach to a table...

"Staff are beautiful Our family of four adults stayed in the beach house, ample space with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. We hired scooters for the week so could come and go as we pleased without inconvenience to anyone as the beach house is next door to resort. Best access is via beach for a very basic continental breakfast in the mornings. Basic 3 star accommodation which suited us but would probably stay on west side next time. Would recommend to prebook Aitutaki as it was booked out and...
