A Nice Large Family Home
The location cannot be faulted. The facilities and amenities are comprehensive. The property is very comfortable. It is however showing signs of wear and tear and some renovation and re-decorating will take this from very good to outstanding.

Family getaway
We had a great time at this property. The swimming pool, pool table and darts was a real hit. Love the bridge over the creek as it was nice to keep an eye out on all the eels and crayfish. Quick walk to the beach with nice snorkelling and easy access to the small Islands. Layout of the house was perfect for 2 families with separation top and bottom.

Excellent outdoor entertainment area
Tangaroa's Cove had fantastic private outdoor living areas for our group of 9 (7 adults, 2 children) - great pool, bar, outdoor TV, pool table, dart board. Lots of shady spots to keep cool. Awesome bakery just a few steps down the road. Sisi and the team were lovely, thanks for everything!

The house was amazing, even better than we expected. Enough bathrooms/bedrooms for all 9 of us. The 16 & 10yr olds really enjoyed the pool as well as the pool table and darts areas (which were enjoyed by all adults). The poolside bar, BBQs, so many choices on indoor and ouddoor dining areas that fitted us all and relaxing outdoors. Location was superb, had our own beach, we walked to restaurants, for groceries, for entertainment but did have a rental to ticky-tour around. Even had a laundrette on our doorstep although there were laundry facilities at the house. Can't thank Sisi enough for being such a brilliant Host. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting the perfect holiday. Many many thanks. Doug and Linda Gordon

Great location
We enjoyed our stay, but the property is ageing. Air conditioning would be very helpful at night or working ceiling fans in bedrooms as was very hot even with the noisy pedestal fans. It was much better staying there than a cramped resort room. Not sure how you can keep the ants or cockroaches out maybe a spray could help, keep all your food and fruit in the fridge, guess thats one downfall of living in the tropics. The lounges were old and musty but comfortable. The pool was refreshing. The showers were showing mould and old. It could be an amazing property with a few renos completed. The decking areas were lovely we had a few games of pool, although their was only one stick with a tip on it. That's a quick fix. Sisi was very helpful with our questions asked, and was quick in her replys. It was a quick walk to Muri night markets, food only, and Muri Beach. Although we did swim in the beach at the back of the house as well. The local people were amazing and its is very, very safe in Rarotonga.

family of 11 at Muri Beach home
The home is separated into 2 rentals, upstairs and down and we rented both and had plenty of room and home came with everything required. The owner came over a couple of times to check the pool when it was cloudy and to bring extra towels when requested and also provided a late check out which was very, very appreciated. The home is ideal for families with kids who love to swim as the lagoon is only a few hundred meters away and we could walk or swim or snorkel to a deserted island the kids called crab island for obvious reasons and we spent hours there most days. The home is also located within walking distance of everything you need, we walked to small convenience stores for simple food and drink supplies, walked to great eateries, walked to the fantastic cultural dinner show and more. We also kept a 15 passenger van parked there as well as 3 scooters we had rented for the time we were there and parking was easy and secure. We love the homes where the owners have it stocked with games, movies, food items previous renters leave such as spices and condiments and this home had none of those but maybe some renters don't want these things? A few cushions for the plastic pool chairs would also add to the comfort but these are just minor suggestions, the home is great and we would definitely consider staying there again.

Holiday Stay
Amazing house, perfect for a family getaway. We had so much fun with the swimming pool, and using the pool tables and dart board. Easy to get to the beach (very interesting watching all the sand crabs) and food options all in walking distance. The house was clean and the host was very attentive. We really enjoyed ourselves and will definitely stay again.

Perfect private home for the week
This property was perfect for our group of friends, plenty of space to spend time together in any weather. The pool table, dart board and pool were a hit! Having multiple entertainment areas meant we could have some downtime if needed. Great location just a walk away from the markets, tours, restaurants and beach. The private walk to the beach gave us so many opportunities to see all the crabs too! Would definitely book this again and have already recommended to family groups.

Exactly as advertised & great location
The property is exactly as pictured & Sisi and her husband were in constant contact in case we needed anything. We loved the location, the pool & access to the lagoon. Having ensuite bathrooms to each room was lovely. The house was the perfect size for 8 of us to have our own space & feel comfortable. The only comment I would make is the lack of air conditioning but there were plenty of pedestal fans in the house.
