Hilton to open first Cook Islands resort
03 December 2007
Hotel chain Hilton has announced that it is to open a new resort and spa on Rarotonga in the Cook Islands, which will be the first international, deluxe hotel offering on the island.
The development is scheduled to open in 2009 and is representative of Hilton's strategy to expand its presence in Australasia.
Comprising 160 guest rooms and 34 serviced apartments, the hotel will be located in the south of the island, close to a beach and lagoon popular for sailing and snorkelling.
Koos Klein, Hilton president for the Asia Pacific region, said: 'The Hilton Rarotonga resort and spa will be the first full service resort of its kind on the ever-popular island of Rarotonga.
'By providing a wealth of upscale services and facilities, it will also enhance Hilton's portfolio of resorts and spas in the Australasian region, following the successful opening of the Fiji beach resort and spa managed by Hilton last year.'
The Cook Islands are located in the Pacific Ocean and flights to Rarotonga are available with Air New Zealand.
