Designer traditional pacific fabric art for your home. We are proud to keep the art of Tivaevae alive with both traditional hand embroidered Tivaevae, machine made or cut and tacked Tivaevae for you to hand sew yourself. Plus many other pacific inspired gifts for you to take home.
I wanted a reminder of the absolute joy of our visit to Rarotonga, and the dress I purchased here is the perfect momento as it not only has the design, colors and uniqueness of the Cook Islands, but I know it is made with the spirit of joy and kindness. Kathrine was so helpful with my purchase, and the earrings I bought are also so lovely and unique, I will always feel as if I am back on my perfect holiday when I wear - or even just look at - these items. Can't wait to go back!

Sunday services are filled with hymns sung in the Maori language at this island church which dates back to 1853. The local graveyard is noted for some famous inhabitants including American author Robert Dean Frisbie.
What a wonderful experience to sit among a congregation of warm loving people sharing their faith with everyone so joyously. Very proud of their identity and faith, the service is presented in the local language with occasional references to the many visitors. Church is not a tourist attraction as far as I am concerned and all should be respectful of this tradition. Make sure you donate to the collection generously.

Rarotonga is so lucky to be surrounded by the most beautiful flowers in the world. The scents, starting at sunrise, and never ending have to be smelt to be believed. We make here the most delicate of perfumes, complimentary body cosmetics, candles. Finally our local fruit liqueurs bring flavor as well as scents to the palate.Our Factory in Panama welcomes you and shows you how our various products are made, whilst in the Cook's Corner we have our famous Fudge Factory! Try an ice cream with chocolate fudge sauce!
We visited this store twice. Purchased most of our souvenirs there. It is conveniently located: in Avarua and right at the bus terminal. The two ladies that helped us were very nice, friendly and very willing to help us pick our items. On our second visit, they greeted us like we were long time friends. If you go there, try their fudge( so many flavors).
