While you’re home – Learn Aitutakian Maori!

KIA ORANA FROM A COVID-19 FREE COOK ISLANDS

We are proud to advise that the Cook Islands remains a safe haven and COVID-19 free and we will be delighted to welcome you back to the safest little paradise when we can. Meanwhile, as you are unable to travel to the Cook Islands at the moment, we thought we’d bring a little bit of paradise to you…

At Pacific Resort Aitutaki, we believe in the power of our cultural identity, and wish to share some of our heritage with you. We have created a guide to Aitutakian Maori, so you can learn a bit about our language.

Actively using these simple words and phrases around the home is not only a unique way to foster a wider cultural variety within the walls of your household, but when you are able to come and visit us again, you will have an edge up on all your fellow guests and our staff will most definitely be impressed!!

We pride ourselves on the warmth, friendliness and profound culture held deeply within the hearts of our staff. Our team strives to create an authentic Cook Islands experience for every guest that adventures to our shores. Our staff members are mostly local, and enjoy sharing both their heritage and loving, laid-back approach to life with our guests. It is easy for our guests to become fully immersed within our Polynesian culture as soon as they arrive, and we hope you enjoy learning these few words.
