    The location is perfect, we stayed in Villa F, one back from the beach and it had a beautiful elevated view. It is right in the centre of Muri next to night markets and sailing club, convenience store and ATM. Easy walking distance to many great restaurants along the beach. Captain Tama and Koka lagoon cruises right next door. Krystina and Eugene the owners are so friendly and easy to deal with, Krystina organised a car for us got 2 days which was a great way to see the rest of the island, but confirmed that we had chosen the best spot! The lagoon is safe swimming and you can virtually walk through the water to the beautiful islands, great snorkelling and we loved using the kayak provided. Could not fault anything, we had a perfect holiday

    Comfortable and relaxing stay in Muri Beach

    No one reached out to organise a clean during our stay, so we didn't have one, but since we were there five days, it would have been good to have one half way through. Air conditioning cost extra, but there is such a cool breeze we didn't really find we needed it most nights (although there was one warmer night where it might have been nice). Also, appreciative that wifi was included but we found out after we'd already purchased data, so we didn't use the included wifi while we were there.

    Comfortable accommodation in the heart of Muri Beach. We loved how accessible everything was from this accommodation with the markets at the rear, restaurants dotted along the beach and cafes a short walk down the road. There is also a 24/7 convenience store less than five mins walk away which was very handy. The view is spectacular and we loved waking up to the ocean view each day. It was also so nice having kayaks to use and we went out a few times and each time saw turtles swimming beside us which was truly magical. The room itself was clean and comfortable with plenty of towels, a functional kitchen and some included food, and a good sized bathroom.

    The Villa has direct access to the the beach and you can enjoy the view of the astonishing Muri Lagoon. Also, the location is perfect to explore the island of Rarotonga and enjoy the Muri Night Market. There is a convenient 24h shop within 2 min walking. Complementary kayaks and bycicles were a plus! Definitely reccommended!

    The step up to the stairs needs a proper step, a loose concrete block is dangerous. The tap over the sink was broken, needs fixing, no oven other than a microwave and gas cook top which were good, hot water is limited.

    Clean, close to everything at Muri, including night food market, right on the beach.

    Loved staying at Muri Shores. Fantastic location, right behind the night markets, the beach is lovely swimming right out in front, the cafe's, restaurants etc are all within easy walking distance. The property is great with only 6 villas, so nice and quiet. Comfortable beds and lovely big deck.

    Great location on Muri Beach, responsive owner and staff with a lot of nice touches. We particularly like the availability of an in room massage. The place is within walking distance to activities and restaurants. And located right by the night market. Owner was upgrading the WiFi while we stayed there and it was much improved before we left.Hope to come next year with a group.

    Hot water temperature in shower was tepid at best. Terrible floor of shower (pebbles in cement grout). Bikes need a good dose of WD40.

    Stunning beachfront location with kayaking (free) and snorkelling (brought our own) just off the beach. Comfortable bed. Deck overlooking beach. Night markets in our front yard. Best fish burgers across the road.
