Quaint Island Cabins
Posted 19 Jun 2019 on HotelsWe were greeted at the airport with leis then driven to the property. When we arrived Marae, the proprietor, sat down with us and explained about the island, told us where things were and booked tours, a show and car rental. Later when we checked the agencies, etc we found that she had booked us in reputable businesses all without the hassle of us having to do it.
The property has three cabins in a lovely garden. There is a well maintained barbecue and sitting area. The is also a playground for young children. The cabins are a bit dated but have fully appointed kitchens including a blender to make tropical smoothies. Wifi didn’t quite reach our cabin, but did reach the other two cabins. Beach towels and chairs were provided.
One day when we had no water, we phoned and Marae came immediately to sort the problem.
Town centre is a 15 minute walk. Lots of restaurants in the area pick you up so walking in the dark is not a problem. Also taxis are available.
The cabins are not your North American chain hotel but are quaint.
The property had three chickens in the yard to add to the character.

Great private cabin with good service
Posted 28 Apr 2019 on HotelsWe stayed here for 2 nights on our quick trip to Easter Island. We were picked up from the airport with flowers, which was a very nice touch (although we easily could have walked to the cabins given how small the town is). The manager helped us organise things during our visit and even drove us into town to get our rental car. The private cabin was clean and comfortable and well stocked. Highly recommended!

WiFi was not good at our cabin, have to go to the office to have WiFi.
Mosquito screens on windows are not good, should replace those specially during summer months. We got mosquito bites during our stay in first haft of March

Lovely cabins close to town.
Posted 21 Sep 2018 on HotelsVery comfortable cabin with many beds and a fully functional kitchen. The best part was the owner Veronica. She helped us with advice on what to see and when, reservations to a show and a car rental. I highly recommend staying here.

Nice cabin and good location
Posted 20 Jun 2018 on HotelsWe stay at Marae during our 4 days visit to Easter Island. Maka was great and responsive from the beginning till the end. When we arrived she patiently explained everything and answered all our questions. The location is convenient - within walking distance to the airport and a short drive to the main streets and shops. The cabin is spacious and has a small kitchen. We bought groceries and cooked most of our meals as the restaurants can be quite expensive. If you are planning to visit E.I, I highly recommend staying at Marae and renting a car. The island is small and easy to navigate.

Great value self catering
Posted 29 Dec 2016The best thing about Marae cabins is the staff. They are helpful and go the extra mile to help you with arriving and getting set up for self catering. The cabins are not air conditioned which may be a problem for some. Otherwise clean and functional. You can get enhanced (they do the washing-up) house keeping for an extra fee. Buy the guide book!!
