Muri Shores

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

Kristina and her staff were great. Super friendly and helpful. The back villa came with amazing views with loungers and a table and chairs to enjoy the raised deck views. Bikes and kayaks were available for use and allowed us to see three turtles in the lagoon while paddling on three separate days. Loungers were also available for use on the beach. The night market was only steps away which made dining easy when we had no car available. We did rent a Muri Shores vehicle they had available at the end of our trip. This helped as our flight did not leave until late at night and gave us the option to tour the island, store our luggage in the car and have easy drop off at the airport since we had no place to stay after checkout, a common problem with late flights. Can’t say enough good things from this Canadian who was a long ways away from home.

Der Aufenthalt in der Strandvilla war sehr schön. Wir hsben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Das Zimmer ist sehr groß und sauber. Die Küche war gut ausgestattet. Das Badezimmer war schön mitceiner großen Dusche. Die Terrasse und die Möbel waren gut. Man ist direkt am Strand. Edna und Albert konnten wir tagsüber fragen, wenn wir was brauchten oder wir kommunizierten mit Krystina über email. Das klappte auch im Vorfeld immer sehr gut und schnell. Gestört hat uns etwas der Essensgeruch von dem (sehr guten ) Restaurant nebenan, da die Lüftung in der Nähe unseres Bungalows (Nr. 4 ) war. Auch die morgendliche Begrüßung von Captain Tams Bootstour war etwas nervig. Der Strand ist ein Traum.

Ahhh Muri Shores is heaven on earth. The location is perfection. The accommodation is perfection. The perfect place to fly, flop and relax. Watch the sea turtles from your balcony, morning swims, midday swims… swim all day. Can’t wait to return. We stayed late Jan 2024. The service from staff was incredible.

We spent 4 idyllic nights at one of the Muri Shores villa's (which we realised was a much too short a stay!). The hosts were absolutely fantastic thoughout- both with communication before & during our stay, organising a swift taxi to & from the airport & popping in during our stay to check everything was OK. The villa is well equipped & the view from the veranda & the bed are dreamy! We found it difficult to pull ourselves away from just sitting there & savouring the tranquility. During our stay - we barely saw anyone else - other than folk walking past on the shoreline. It feels like you have the beach to yourself. We walked around the shore line in both directions and honestly feel the villa's are located in the most beautiful part. It is also brilliantly located for using the local bus, a 24/7 convenience store & a number of different eating options - including the night market (which we did sample - but felt it was worth paying just a little bit more at one of the beach side restaurants). Loved the enormous walk in shower & the air con was superb. Can fully understand why all the reviews here are 5 star & why people keep coming back! Memories of a lifetime! Thank you so much.
