Rarotonga, Cook Islands, October 11, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Pacific Resort Hotel Group (PRHG) is in celebration mode once again after all three of it�s Cook Islands properties were honoured at the 21st annual World Travel Awards, capturing six major awards on a special night for the hotel management company.

Kicking off the night Pacific Resort Rarotonga was recognized as a regional leader for the very first time at the WTA, taking out �Australasia's Leading Boutique Resort 2014� and �Australasia's Leading Family Resort 2014,� as well as the �Cook Islands' Leading Resort� award to cap off a stunning trifecta for Rarotonga�s leading full service resort.

Following on Pacific Resort Aitutaki was awarded two regional awards including �Australasia's Leading Boutique Island Resort 2014� and �Australasia's Leading Resort 2014,� the ultimate regional accolade in the resort category. Rounding of the award haul for PRHG was Te Manava Luxury Villas & Spa awarded �Cook Islands' Leading Villa Resort 2014� for the third consecutive year firmly consolidating its position as the Cook Islands number one luxury villa property.

Pacific Resort Hotel Group chief executive officer Greg Stanaway who was in New Delhi to receive the awards on behalf of PRHG was proud and humbled by the level of recognition received for the PRHG resort portfolio.

�Quite simply it is the ultimate accolade we can expect to achieve, these awards are great for our group and for the Cook Islands in total,� says Stanaway. �Our guests have become more sophisticated and more widely travelled than ever before, they have also become more demanding and discerning, the fact that all our resorts have been acknowledged at this level indicates we are on the right track in terms of meeting and exceeding the expectations of our valued guests.�

The World Travel Awards were established in 1993 to acknowledge, reward and celebrate excellence across all sectors of the tourism industry. Today, the WTA brand is recognised globally as the ultimate hallmark of quality, with winners setting the benchmark to which all others aspire.
