To be honest I did not want to write a review so this spot could remain a secret. Its a gem of a place, right on the beachfront of Muri Beach, clean, air conditioned with well located near some great eateries, behind the food markets, next to the yacht club and very close to a supermarket. Arriving a tad early, Edna greeted us and allowed both early access and late checkout to our room. Having free access to snorkelling gear, paddle board and kayaks was a bonus and allowed us to see turtles on the lagoon mist days. We also appreciated the owners dropping by to see everything was okay The best place that i have stayed at in Rarotonga. We'll be back for the beachfront units next time.

Location was amazing, accomadation was very well presented and tidy, Great layout for guests to enjoy the lagoon on it's door step. Hosts were so accomadating and absolutely wonderful to deal with. I accidentally got sand all in the bed and they came quickly and refreshed the whole room for us no problem. The property sits in between the very expensive high end property's and offers the same beautiful amenities and views etc. very well worth the money. Loved it. We are already planning our next trip back.

The location is perfect, we love Muri. Best side of the island 🏝 😉 the view from the villa was amazing, nice and sheltered by the trees. Well appointed kitchen, has everything you need (home away from home really) close to shops, restaurants, night markets etc everything you need is within walking distance. The wifi was amazing as was the shower. The bed was super comfy also, which is rare. 💯 will be back. Loved it!

Everything done by he owners for their guests is much appreciated.

The location is the best on Rarotonga; Villas located just few steps to the ocean water; beach area have been cleaned every morning. Welcome fruits basket was very hospitable; some tea, sugar and instant coffee were provided for use on the arrival. The owners Krystina and Eugene are very kind and helpful, We were allowed to stay longer with later check out when our flight was delayed. Definitely will come back

Beachfront stay in perfect location

Location was perfect, and the villa was very comfortable, especially the bed. I loved sending the evenings on the verandah, listening to the waves

A wonderful stay!

We stayed at Muri Shores and absolutely loved the location — right on the beautiful beach. It was a bit windy during our stay, but still such an amazing place to relax. We really appreciated the free kayaks, snorkelling gear and bikes. The staff were fantastic too — quick to respond to fix anything. A wonderful stay!

It exceeds our expectations!

Our Villa D, was absolute beachfront at the popular Muri beach . The view was fantastic. The location is perfect, close to a supermarket, take aways and restaurants. The night market was just behind the villas, which was a big bonus. Beautiful, comfortable and clean villa. We will definitely be back.
