Pacific Resort Aitutaki chosen as a Best Luxury Hotel in the World!


Pacific Resort Aitutaki has been chosen as one of the Best Luxury Hotel in the World & the South Pacific by TripAdvisor® in its 2009 Travelers’ Choice awards

Now in its seventh year, the TripAdvisors Travelers' Choice awards honour the world’s best hotels, earning their distinction from those who know them best – real travelers.

Unlike any other hotel awards programs in the world, TripAdvisor® Travelers' Choice winners are based on the millions of real and unbiased reviews and opinions about hotels on tripadvisor.com and content from across the web.

“TripAdvisor travelers always appreciate great values, and 2009 is certainly no exception. The 2009 Travelers’ Choice awards highlight more bargain properties than ever before with 190, nearly five times as many as last year,” said Michele Perry, Vice President of Global communications for TripAdvisor. “Millions of real travelers worldwide have helped identify these outstanding hotels, recognized for their exceptional accommodations, service, and value.”

Pacific Resort Chief Executive Officer Greg Stanaway says this award provides further testament to Pacific Resort Aitutaki’s position as one of the world’s leading luxury resorts. The list of accolades for Pacific Resort Aitutaki in recent years is extensive with the resort collecting the following awards in 2008 alone: 

- World's Leading Boutique Island Resort - World Travel Awards
- Top 20 Resort - Australia & Pacific - Conde Nast Traveler's Readers Choice Awards
