Top Muri Beach Hotel Reviews

Pacific Resort Rarotonga

10/10 Excellent

"We had beach front views which was so Amazing & friendly staff. Would definitely return to this resort."

Muri Beach Club

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were amazing! Location is the best"

Te Manava Luxury Villas

10/10 Excellent

"3 bedroom pool villa was great for our family. We had 6 in this villa and 2 others in a pool villa having our own private pool was good send with the kids. Ana the host was also great. She was checking in with us everyday to see if we needed anything or help booking activities or restaurants or needing new towels etc. It was nice having a full kitchen and BBQ to cook on and eat if we wanted but we were still close enough to other options in muri, plus the pacific rersort facilities to use them if you wanted to. Would def book again to say at Te Manava Villas but may won't make it 13 years between visits to Rarotonga."

Muri Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing location and, despite a few areas needing attention, we had another wonderful holiday in Rarotonga. First time staying in Muri, and it certainly didn’t disappoint. While our room was starting to show its age and the pool area could benefit from a little maintenance, neither took away from what was a fantastic stay. The staff were warm and welcoming throughout, with a special mention to Jaymie, who was especially friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and would happily return."

Crystal Blue Lagoon Villas

10/10 Excellent

"Very very nice ! Served us a nice breakfast each morning. All the comforts of home. We would absolutely stay there again and recommend to everyone."

Tianas Beach

"❤️"

Muri Beachcomber

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay in early October. The sea view rooms are well positioned for views but also catch the prevailing SE winds at that time of year. The rooms are spacious with comfortable bed and kitchenette. The pool is sheltered so is lovely to sit around but is unheated so too cold for us (at this time of year)."

Nautilus Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Everyone was so kind and gracious that we interacted with. From the moment we arrived it was nothing short of special"

Rumours Luxury Villas & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"This place is absolutely incredible, beyond our expectations. It truly is stunning. The staff was fabulous, especially Danielle. They were extremely accommodating and the breakfast each day was wonderful. The property is very quiet, serene, and well stocked with coffee and snacks. It is in a great location with a little convenience store and a yummy Vietnamese restaurant across the street."
