A first time visit to Rarotonga for my son, his partner, and their two small girls. Had I come alone I would have stayed in a resort, but as it was their first holiday abroad they wanted to stay in a house to allow them to do their own thing in their own time. Next time we will book into a resort to get that experience.
Mac's Shack was tidy and clean, easily accessed, and convenient to the main centre, and to activities and swimming beaches around
Muri lagoon. Thanks Eddie for opening up your home.
We absolutely loved our time here in Rarotonga and will be returning for certain in the near future.

Stunning snorkelling spot and bach literally metres from the lagoon

Good property in great location. The holiday home provided the essentials for what we needed on our holiday. Kids loved the coconut knife that they could use to open coconuts. We loved having access to the beach and snorkeling without having to drive anywhere to do it. The proximity to Wigmores, small shop just a few hundred metres away, and Muri was fantastic! Eddie was awesome to deal with and prompt when we needed help. Thanks very much!!

Loved snorkeling with turtles, giant eels, and octopus not two minutes from the front door. Walks to Muri beach are more than possible from here though a car or bike suits better.
Communication with Eddie was absolutely spot on and the place was cleaned very well.

We love Titikaveka but feel Mack's Shack needs to update some appliances. The manager did replace the toaster while we were there but the hairdryer didn't work and the fridge badly needed replacing. Having said that we will come back again for another relaxing holiday.

Was perfect for what we wanted, in a quiet area yet only 15 minutes to walk to Muri. Fantastic beach just across the road, great snorkelling - if only it had of been warmer.
Property had everything we needed, even a random friendly dog that befriended us. Shops close by for any bits and bobs you need. Great place will definitely be back to Rarotonga!

Really clean and comfortable house, with fully functioning facilities. Loved the location, right in amongst the best snorkeling and close to Muri for essentials and dining out. Definitely stay there again.

'Mac's Shack' is way better than the photos. There are comfy couches, good beds and it is quite spacious. It was immaculately clean. The location is perfect. Access to the three best snorkeling areas Fruits of Raratonga across the road, Aroa and Black Rock a short fun trip by car, scooter or bus. A shop a few doors away; Charlies along the road for great meals, bar and live entertainment; can walk to Muri night markets. The party bus going past at 8pm is hilarious with its flashing lights and 80s music. (They go home the the way!) Chooks wandering around. It was a much more cultural experience than staying in a resort. We will definitely stay at Mac's again when we come back.
Eddie thank you for being such a a gem to organize the trip with. See you in another three years!

A well maintained 2 bedroom Lockwood style house set in a large section right across the road from the beach. The kitchen was well equipped, the double bed comfortable and the plumbing all worked. Large lounge/dining living area.
No air conditioning but overhead fans were adequate for August temperatures. The only negative was the traffic noise from the main road but this was minor when weighed against all the other plusses.
Te location is only 100m from the best snorkeling on the island.

Awesome location - just over the road from the best snorkelling around. Tidy, comfortable holiday home - with a lovely breeze off the sea to cool things down! Great for our toddler - large, flat section (just watch them near the road). We would definitely stay at Mac's again.
