Where to Stay in Niue
Great! You’ve found our accommodation article for Niue, probably because you searched for “hotels in Niue” or “resorts in Niue”. But let’s get one thing straight… Niue is not your South Pacific getaway bustling with hotels and resorts. In fact, there’s only one resort on the whole island, while the rest of the accommodation options are made up of holiday homes, guest houses and boutique cottage complexes. It makes for an alternative way to experience the South Pacific in utterly peaceful surroundings (except for the chickens, which you’ll learn to love by the end of your stay). So let us guide you through some of the top stays in Niue!
