There are very few cook islands travel agents specializing in selling individual accommodations. Most high street travel agents sell all inclusive package holidays but these are almost exclusively based around the larger resorts and motels. The charm of the Cook Islands is its many small beach bungalows run by local families, including some very upmarket properties. We suggest you do the following:

Buy your airline ticket from a flight agent and then search the Cook Islands Accommodation base at www.Pacific-Resorts.com which offers more than 35 properties around the Cook Islands. When you have made your selection your booking enquiry is sent to Beautiful Pacific Travel Specialists, an internet based travel agency based in Fiji. Beautiful Pacific has intimate knowledge of the islands with the ability to book you into the smaller guesthouses and beach bungalows as well as the larger resorts.

The alternative is to book direct to the resort or bungalow but this has its downsides:

Firstly, the resort of bungalow is obliged to sell its rooms to the general public at the full published room rate or "Rack Rate" - the idea of getting a discount by booking direct doesn't happen. However, Beautiful Pacific has negotiated many discounts which are passed on to you;

Secondly, you will find that email correspondence with many properties can be slow. Beautiful Pacific always replies within 24hrs, usually within 12hrs and often within several hours - it also offers a free return telephone call service on request;

Thirdly, you may not be sure that the property you have selected is right for you. Beautiful Pacific will match up the right accommodation for you.

Fourthly, if the resort or bungalow is full, you will have to start your search all over again. Beautiful Pacific will advise the most suitable alternative in such cases;

Fifthly, you will have to make sure someone will meet you at the airport as most flights arrive in the early hours of the morning. Beautiful Pacific can arrange this for you;

Lastly, if you did have a complaint about your property, you would have to sort it out yourself with the hotel manager. Beautiful Pacific acts as an independent advisory and sorts out any problems for you.
