Muri Shores

This little place is great. I booked very last minute and they were quick to respond. The bugalows are directly on the beach and the views are amazing. It is a really nice and quiet place to stay, while also being really close to everything the Muri area has to offer. This is not a resort and I would absolutely stay there again.

Fantastic stay at Muri Shores! The location was perfect, accommodation was clean, kitchen was well equipped and bed was comfy. Communication with the owners was also easy. We ran out of gas and Eugene was there promptly on Easter Sunday to replace it for us. It was great to have access to bikes and kayaks and we were in easy walking distance of activities, restaurants and cafes. We'd love to stay here again. Thank you Krystina and Eugene :)

Dear Krystina, it´s been a few weeks now, since we´re back in Germany and back to normal work-mode. But every now and then, we think of our great 6-week-journey to New Zealand, which ended with a special treat at Muri Shores in your litte paradise on earth. Traveling to New Zealand was the fullfilling of a long dream and it truly was an experience of a lifetime. To be honest, the "icing on the cake" was our stay at your accommodation on Rarotonga. We would like to thank you from our hearts for the wonderful stay, the beatiful beachvilla, the perfect housekeeping and very warm welcome. We enjoyed it to the fullest and had the chance to visit Aitutaki, the nightmarket and the local museum. We loved kayaking in the lagoon, having a swim right infront of the villa, soaking in the relaxed vibes of the island or simply waking up in the morning with that georgous view. Thank you guys so much for this true little paradise. We´re sure, we will re-visit New Zealand in a few years and when the time comes, we will definitely visit you again at Muri Shores. :-) We wish you all the best, keep up the great work and enjoy your little paradise. We´ll recommend you to everybody we know and who are planning a trip to Cook Islands. Thanks again. Best regards from cold rainy Germany, Christian and Thomas

Muri Shores is a 5 star experience! Absolutely stunning location on the lagoon, easy to walk to shops and restaurants, pleasant interior and Krystina was a joy to deal with. Thank you for making the last few days of our honeymoon amazing! We will be back :)

Arrived at Muri Shores, was not disappointed, the bungalow was beautiful and certainly as described, the view took my breath away, a tropical paradise without doubt, facilities were great, small kitchen, nice bathroom and wonderful lounge area with a large double bed, the decking outside offered fantastic views of the lagoon and we spent many ours just looking out over it, private beach area with sun loungers, free kayaks and bicycles, just perfect, fantastic value for money, some of the other places on Muri Beach were 3 time the price, a big thanks to Krystina and Eugene who popped in to see us and make sure everything was ok, they arranged the airport transfers for us which were flawless both ways. The gardens were immaculate tended to by Albert and Edna. Nice cafe and bakery, a small supermarket and the fantastic night market literally behind the bungalow serving some wonderful food, plenty of activities including Lagoon cruises, swimming with turtles and rays, great bus service around the island and car hire nearby. We will certainly return here when back in New Zealand Highly recommend
