Muri Shores represents exceptional value for money: very comfortable villas (ours was raised one back from the beachfront with a view to the lagoon), great communication from Krystina, and situated on the best part of Muri Beach for swimming. The beach has a private section with sun loungers for guests, which was most appreciated. Its position behind the Muri Night Markets could not have been better. Very highly recommended for a stay on this lovely island. Just book.

What a gem of a place Muri Shores is! We stayed in one of four absolute beach/lagoon front villas. The view is amazing, whether you’re on the super comfortable bed inside or sipping champagne at the outside balcony table. Amazing location with eateries, restaurants and markets all in walking distance. Complimentary kayaks and snorkelling equipment, along with a paddle board are there to explore the crystal clear lagoon and turtles a plenty. Sunlounges are also provided for our personal use. There are hire car providers within walking distance or you can hop on a bus which go in both directions around the island. Would definitely recommend Muri Shores for your next holiday and my wife and I are sure to return.

We visit Rarotonga every year, and Muri Shores has been our favourite accommodation so far. The villa was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully set up with everything we needed. Right on the beach with stunning lagoon views, we loved using the kayaks and waking up to island music drifting over from next door at Captain Tama’s. The location is ideal—close to everything—and you can tell the owners genuinely care. We’ll definitely be back!

Cannot recommend this accomodation enough! The view from the front balcony is to die for. We used the provided kayaks every morning and evening to explore the lagoon and go for a snorkel. Kristina was so lovely and accomodating. Loved our stay

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.

Great location. Quiet. Awesome outlook. 36 steps from front door to water. Well equipped with air con, bikes and kayaks. Close to Muri night markets and lagoon cruises. Excellent hosts. Third time in Rarotonga but first time on the Muri lagoon waterfront. Beautiful. Would definitely try and 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
