It’s beautiful there, off the main road so nice and quiet. The house is huge and it was nice and cool there too. Host is so friendly if you have a family to accommodate I’d suggest going there.

The place is perfect for exploring the local culture. It’s close to the museum, library, church, and there are several restaurants nearby, as well as the Saturday market. You don’t need a car because the bus stop is just a few minutes away. The best part, of course, was the amazing staff who truly cared about me during my stay and pick me up from the airport and a different accommodation. I stayed twice at this small hotel. The pool is great, and breakfast at The Trout was fantastic. If you are picky with cleaning, this is your place 😉

Kura's Kabanas

Muri, Rarotonga

Located on the northern end of the magnificent Muri Beach in Rarotonga, Kura’s Kabanas enjoys a secluded beachfront location. Free private parking is available on site.

Absolutely perfect and the best place to stay in Muri Lagoon. Being at the northern tip of Muri Beach is the best place with your own private beach and protection against the easterly winds that Muri Beach encounters. The Kabana’s are very comfortable and has everything you need. We cooked some nights and others we ate out. It is so quiet, peaceful and relaxing. Staying in only 1 of 4 Kabana’s you’re not surrounded by other tourists. THANK YOU to the Teuira and the team, we had an amazing time and this will be the only place we stay when returning to Rarotonga! Highly recommend.
