We were pleasantly surprised by the convenience to the night markets (next door!!), the lagoon very uses (one door away!) along with the availability of SUPs & kayaks, etc. The cleanliness of our bungalow and the very friendly cleaning staff made our stay even more special.

Great location and rooms had plenty of space. Bed very comfortable. Some of the staff were a little grumpy, eg when asked for extra towels (one each when I have long hair is not enough ) it was I was asking for the impossible. Staff took our towels for washing while we were having breakfast out on the deck but didn't replace them until lunch, we couldn't shower before going out.

One of the best places to stay in Muri Beach, great to have a variety of outdoor equipment supplied free and to be in walking distance to good restaurants.

Kia Orana sea view vista

Pros: Friendly and helpful staff. Grounds are well maintained and lots of lovely fresh fruit to pick off the trees.
Cons: The room safe could be a bit more secure. Probably need another couple of paddle boards and a couple more kayaks.
Location: Very handy to night markets, local cafes, eating places, hire companies and tourist attractions.
Had a sea view villa - was lovely no tv, just plenty of time to wind down and relax. Roomy villa with good sized bedroom and bathroom. Lounge dining area good size too and comfortable quality furniture. Weber bbq outside for use (3) for our group of 6 villas and great outdoor seating. Covered patio to sit out with good quality table and chairs and a couple of deck chairs for lounging on. 4 Kayaks and a paddle board to have a play with, bikes, snorkel gear too.
