Central location 400m to the Muri Night Market

Muri Beach Studio - premium accommodation at an amazing beach front location.
Muri is the jewel of Rarotonga and we are in one of the best settings !

The Studio is totally 'Self Contained' and not shared or part of another property - it is your Studio, like a Hotel room with much more.

It is very popular, mainly due to its great nightly rate making it affordable to stay slap bang in Muri without paying the $600+ resort rates

Privacy and great location

We had a great 8 day stay at Mûri Beach Studio. Adam and Sarah were fantastic hosts, from sending information and tips ahead of time and arranging our pickup at the airport, to answering questions during our stay and dropping by to say hello. The studio is cozy and very private, good air conditioning, and in a fabulous location on Mûri beach. We loved taking the kayaks that are provided and paddling out to snorkel by the little island offshore. Highly recommend!

Cosy Cottage

We enjoyed the privacy of the accomodation. It is basic accomodation set amongst the lovely grounds and great beach access. The bowl of fresh fruit on arrival was a nice touch. Muri is the ideal place to be, close to the night Market and other activities. We would stay here again in a heart beat.

Great place to stay for a couple

The Studio was perfect for the two of us and had everything we needed. The kayaks were great and the snokelling around the back of Taakaka Island was fabulous.

Hosted by taakoka-muri-beach1

Since 2011 Taakoka Muri Beach Villas has grown to become one of the islands leading ‘private’ self catered accommodation providers with visitors experiencing a true pacific island style of accommodation. We work hard to ensure our guests book, arrive, stay and depart with ease so that all they have to do is relax and enjoy their holiday in paradise - and we help with that too with loads of info, tips and advice well before arrival so that you can hit the ground running, or just arrive, relax and do nothing!

Located three and a half hours from NZ in the middle of the South Pacific and set on the ‘Golden Mile’ of Muri Beach Rarotonga this 3/4 acre section stretching from road to beach offers a mini resort like experience for couples, families and those seeking luxury and privacy in their own property, not multiple hotel style units.

Offering private beach areas the section has kayaks, and plenty of lawn and landscaped areas giving a feeling of space and privacy.

As owners we have over 30 years each in the NZ and Cook Islands tourism industry from hotels, resorts to now our own business in paradise. We look forward to meeting you and helping you make your island holiday a amazing one. Kia Manuia. Adam & Sarah
