Grand Canal Pool
The longest swimming pool in the South Pacific
A refreshing morning swim, a relaxed afternoon cooling off, or a cocktail from the swim-up bar, while overlooking the lagoon.
Stretching 110 metres, the Grand Canal Pool at The Grand Resort, Rarotonga will be the longest swimming pool in the South Pacific. Set beside the beachfront on Rarotonga’s sunset coast, it will bring together swim-up suites, a swim-up pool bar and beautiful lagoon views in one signature resort experience.

From Suite to Pool
Make the Grand Canal Pool part of your everyday with a stay in a swim-up suite.
Both the Swim-Up Luxury King Suites, for a romantic Rarotonga escape, and the Swim-Up Grand Two Bedroom Suites for adult families or friends travelling together, offer direct access from their private terraces into the pool.
Step outside for a leisurely dip, swim to the pool bar, then return to the comfort of your suite whenever you wish.
Swim-up pool bar
Some holiday moments deserve to linger. Our swim-up pool bar overlooks the beach and turquoise lagoon, offering a relaxed setting to enjoy a cocktail without leaving the water.
Swim over, settle in and take in the view across Rarotonga’s beachfront.
From a refreshing afternoon drink to a shared toast on your Cook Islands holiday, this will be a place to savour the setting as much as what’s in your glass.
Nightly Fountain Show
The Grand Canal Pool is at the heart of a holiday at The Grand Resort. A setting for long swims, refreshing dips and relaxed afternoons beside the water.
As the sunsets and evening arrives, our signature nightly Fountain Show will add another dimension to the experience, bringing light and movement to the pool.
Enjoy the spectacle as part of an unhurried evening at The Grand Resort.
