During my internship with Pacific Resort Hotel Group, I’ve worked as a Marketing Coordinator on various projects, everything from photography, graphic design, social media to film editing. I was assigned with projects that really enriched my learning curve and work experience within the marketing team.
For me, the most exiting part of this internship has been working closely with the General Manager of Marketing and Communications - Rawinia Lange, who taught me valuable lessons on how to communicate strategically on behalf of an award winning hotel group.
While working with the team on various tasks, I further improved how to set priorities and how to finish the work in the most effective way. It’s really exciting learning new things every day, especially when there is so much going on within the tourism industry.
I highly recommend the Pacific Resort Hotel Group Marketing Internship programme.

My time working as a Communications Coordinator intern for the Pacific Resort Hotel Group, based in Rarotonga, has been invaluable in terms of gaining real time experience working in a marketing and communications role.
I worked closely with senior members of the corporate team and on projects of real consequence for the company, which in turn allowed me to develop my existing skill set and pick up new abilities outside my area of expertise.
Overall the experience has been an exceedingly positive one, and I would not hesitate to recommend it to others. The fact that the job is based at a location world renowned for being a tropical island paradise doesn’t hurt either!

My name is Himiwa and I am Swiss and Madagascan! I’m currently studying International Hospitality Management at the Lausanne Hotel School (EHL) in Switzerland. As part of my studies, I had the opportunity to do a five-month internship in an administrative department and I decided to come here as the Executive Support intern of the Pacific Resort Hotel Group. Why did I choose the Cook Islands? Because I visited these islands many times in the past, and mostly because I was willing to take up the challenges of working within a growing hotel company in a different cultural environment.
I have mainly conducted an independent project for the establishment of standard procedures for the group and this has been really diverse, from very administrative tasks to the audit of the Beach Hut activities! Working for PRHG has truly been a one-in-a-lifetime experience that I will be sharing when I will head back to the Alps!
I believe you will have as much fun during your stay in Rarotonga as I am having here every day…

The marketing internship with Pacific Resort Hotel Group is hands down the best experience I have ever had. The staff and management at the resort were fantastic; constantly going above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable in my work, my accommodation and in the wider Pacific Resort community.
The internship was exciting, challenging and beneficial, not to mention located in one of the most beautiful places on earth. The Rarotongan lifestyle has truly sunken in. I am incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity to experience such a spectacular place with such amazing people.
Thank you Pacific Resort Hotel Group for your kindness and hospitality.
