Lovely stay!

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The home was as described and very clean and comfortable. The location was very convenient to Muri and we loved how quiet the area was. The beach is gorgeous and we had so much fun snorkeling and kayaking out to the motu each day. We also enjoyed the pool and used it more than I had expected. The fresh fruit platter was a lovely touch which we appreciated.

Perfect location in Muri

Exactly as advertised - the house was only a couple back from the beach and a gentle stroll between palm trees down to the water! The pool is only shared with a couple of other places, and so all in all it made for a great little base for us.

Adam and Sarah were gracious hosts. The villa had everything we needed (2 x adults/ 2 x kids ages 8 & 11). Plenty of room for a car out front, meters to the pool and a short walk to the beach. Muri itself had lots of food options and local attractions, such as lagoon cruises. We would definitely rent here again.
