We love to share our little piece of paradise and think our property lends itself perfectly to groups wanting to reconnect with their minds, bodies, and nature.
With seven luxury rooms, a multi-purpose group studio and use of all resort amenities, Ikurangi is the perfect location for your next group escape. We are the consummate host and will help you plan your retreat or wellness break just as you please - then take care of all the details once you arrive.
At Ikurangi Eco Retreat we offer all-inclusive Retreat Packages for private groups up to 14 guests. We welcome yoga instructors, life and wellness coaches or any party who wish to enjoy exclusive use of our beautiful property.
Our point of difference is while we host your group, you formulate your own programme for your own clients. We’d love to partner with you so if you're ready to share your gifts as a teacher and facilitate an impactful and unique getaway for your class, Ikurangi Eco Retreat is here to bring this dream to life. Let us take care of your accommodation, catering, island tours and more, so you can focus on being a leader and having fun!
We have put together several packages that will suit a variety of needs and budgets however, if there is something specific you’d like us to arrange, we are here to help tailor it to your needs. Our package rates (available upon request) are for exclusive use of the entire resort not per number of persons.

FAQ
Q. How do I get to Raro?
A. We have direct flights weekly from LA, Sydney and Tahiti as well as daily flights from Auckland. COVID-19 update: please check with your preferred airline.
Q. How many people can we bring?
A. Ikurangi is designed to comfortably host up to 14 guests including facilitator/s.
Q. Do you have a dedicated space on which our group can practise yoga?
A. Yes! We have a large (4.8m x 9m) multi-purpose undercover platform for yoga and dining together, all weather. We also have an expansive lawn area, if preferred, on fine days.
Q. What type of cuisine is included in the Polynesian Zen Package?
A. All meals are vegetarian (with seafood upon request) using the freshest, locally grown, seasonal produce. Breakfasts are healthy and nutritious with something different every day. Lunches are pre-packaged for you to enjoy on site or take away to eat elsewhere. Dinners are served at Ikurangi and are either delicious shared Island Platters or a buffet featuring traditional dishes. We support two local caterers that are highly rated.
Q. What dining options are there for days Ikurangi aren’t supplying meals?
A. Lunch or dinner are included on some of the tours and we always recommend a Saturday morning outing to the local Punanga Nui Market for lunch as well as the Muri Night Markets open several nights a week for dinner. There are excellent restaurants to cater to everyone’s tastes and budgets and we’ve learnt from experience that guests like to get out and explore the local food scene.
Q. Can you cater for dietary intolerances?
A. Yes, with ample notice, we can cater to most dietary needs including vegan, gluten free and lactose intolerant.
Q. How do we get around?
A. We have six bicycles on site which are complimentary to use and there is a reliable bus service. However, we do recomment hiring a car or van to make the most of your stay on Rarotonga. A rental vehicle is by far the most economical way for a group to get around - prices range from $75 day/15 seater.
