The Edgewater resort has some great aspects like its fantastic entertainment and variety of dining options, particularly the Spaghetti House that I highly recommend. I loved the family-friendly environment and the convenience of the town bus stopping right outside. However, there were some downsides, such as the lack of complimentary water and a small, crowded pool. Overall, it’s a decent place for families but could use some improvements in various areas.

We stayed in the 200 block near the pool which was a bit noisy, but I appreciated the option of the Family Villas for a more peaceful experience. Our room was clean but felt a bit outdated.

My experience at the hotel was a mixed bag. On the positive side, the evenings were filled with beautiful shows and the pool was a hit with the kids. However, the customer service left much to be desired, and the rooms could use some attention. Overall, I enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere, but I wouldn’t say it met the standard of a luxurious stay.

I had a lovely long weekend at the Edgewater Resort & Spa in the Cook Islands. The view from our room was stunning, and the included breakfasts were great with a variety of fresh options. However, the coffee and tea provided in the room were quite disappointing, and the overall ambiance could be improved as some areas looked a bit dated.

I had a mixed experience at the resort. While the location was fantastic and offered beautiful views, the rooms left a lot to be desired in terms of cleanliness. The dining options were quite limited and didn't meet my expectations. Despite some fun activities, the overall service could definitely be improved, especially for those looking for a comfortable stay.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at this resort. While the location is fantastic and the kids eat free for lunch and dinner with a paying adult, I found the overall experience less than ideal. The rooms need significant updates and weren't very baby-friendly. Moreover, I was frustrated by the unexpected charge for Wi-Fi and the disappointing breakfast that didn't match expectations.

Rooms
