    Liana & Sera were amazing, nothing was too much trouble, our villa was spotless, the beds were super comfy. We were able to use facilities at Muri Beach Club Hotel, which is a magnificent property. I will definately be coming back

    A wonderful, light and airy retreat in the trees, a short walk from Muri Beach, shops and market.

    No toiletries - not sure if there should have been any.

    We loved the quiet location with views between the trees from our villa to Muri Beach. It was a short walk to dairies, cafes, Muri Night Market and the Muri Beach Club pool. The villa was spacious, cool and had modern furniture and lovely deck with outdoor furniture. Good kitchen facilities so we could make our own meals if we wanted to. The large bed was very comfortable. Access to Muri Beach Club facilities and beach was a bonus. The owner was very responsive in helping us with transport from the airport. We would definitely stay again.

    The floor needed a wash before we arrived but didn't get it. Noisy roosters woke me too early and also during the night.

    Loved the view, the self-contained facilities, the wonderfully comfortable beds, the area of Rarotonga, the friendliness of the locals.

    It's quite confusing as all photos online showed two beds in one room, but we got one big bed. We arrived quite late in the evening so did not ask for change. The second night we met two large cockroaches which were really scary and hard to kill, could not sleep at the second night.

    Nice location and not far from Muri beach; reasonable price; big kitchen with cookware

    I didn't like the noisy neighbour who was working each morning on renovating his property, especially as started quite early. Also the roosters!! There were quite a few small black ants in the apartment and in the bed.

    I liked being away from the busy tourist precinct along the beachfront and the nice view over the lagoon.

    Mosquitos are annoying, highly recommend going to the local shop to grab mosquito coils to enjoy the balcony. Ants were a plenty and the geckos find their way in. Roosters crowing all hours. Hot water was a miss, we tried all ways to get it going but with no luck. Air con remote batteries were flat so we couldn't turn it on when it was muggy.

    Loved how it felt like you were in a tree hut, peaceful and relaxing. Great views of Muri Lagoon and not a long walk to the local shops and restaurants. They provided eye masks and ear plugs were a must if you wanted sleep (roosters crow all hours)

    The bathroom is not enclosed so the room can be quite humid after showering- even when the air con was running. Having the rooms serviced more regularly would be a bonus.

    The Bungalows were away from the main road and gave you peace of mind. The facilities are perfect if you like to cook your own meals.

    roosters crowing all night and fire very close by which was so Smokey, we had trouble seeing each other at one point while getting ready for a wedding.

    bungalows were lovely inside, clean and well cared for. pity about the all night roosters and chickens that prevented one from sleeping. Also neighbour had fire going outside which inundated our bungalow and all our clothing reeked of smoke to head off to a wedding that day.

    The only problem was the free roaming roosters that crow all hours of the night, this problem isn't specific to these bungalows, friends staying at other parts of the island experienced the same issue. Ear plugs are definitely needed and were supplied.

    It's 10 minute walk to the beach, a few shops, Captain Tama Lagoon Cruizes and the Muri Night Market.

    No pool even though we've been told we can use the pool at somewhere else but it would be a long walk to the pool or a beach. We wouldn't stay there for long. It pricey for the quality provided, no view or pool.

    We only stayed at this property for a night. The bed is comfortable and there is a full kitchen if someone is looking at staying there for longer and prepares meals.
