We were all very happy with the accommodation, it was perfect for a family of 7. A little rundown but it made it made for a great Raro experience. Lots of room, great location, full kitchen, 2 bathrooms with toilets in each. Wendy our property manager was extremely helpful and accommodating. We had the use of a small pool beach side and a kayak. We would 100% go back!

Budget accomodation with amazing views. Reasonably private and self contained with everything you need. Aircon was a nice touch. Location was great as you can walk right out the front to lagoon. Would stay again.

The property is very tired and run down, pool looked awesome but had signs saying stay off the deck. We had linen, plenty of towels and kitchen essentials which was handy. Really handy to Muri and all the restaurants. Would need some serious work before I returned.

Absolutely loved our stay. Sure it’s not 5 star accommodation, but doesn’t claim to be. But absolutely 5 star for location. It was our home for 8 nights and was just awesome. Wendy, our host is absolutely lovely too. Very yummy Asian & Mexican restaurants just down the driveway and Muri night markets for food options if you don’t want to go far. We will definitely pick this place to come back and stay.

Great value and convenient to lagoon and shops

The Manea group of houses and cabins is down a driveway (shared with "The Flametree") off the main road so quiet and private. An older style of cabin (no. 5) set back a little from the sea front, with a large d'stairs room with an en suite bathroom, 2 king size beds, cooling fans and plenty of room; and two upstairs rooms, one with aircon and their own bathroom (therefore beds for a total of 8 people/4 couples). The kitchen was well set up with fridge, large stove and a microwave. The large sheltered deck was great to sit out on with 2 or 3 tables and easy chairs. I recommend you buy duty free at the airport (about $NZ30/litre of spirits Nov. 2024). Plenty of parking space. Just opposite and 50 metres away is "My Cousin's place" which serves excellent coffee and fresh made muesli and fruit breakfasts - highly recommended. On the main road and 200 metres away are a small convenience store and a smoothy shop. Many other shops and the night market are well within walking distance. Manea has a pool beside the lagoon and a selection of sit-on kayaks for general use. We found it difficult to contact the manager when needed as her phone number seems to be the public phone on the outside office wall, but Wendy is on site most days and she is very helpful and friendly. The resident dog, Jane, is a lovely old girl who appreciates a pat whenever you feel inclined and she acts as a sentry when you are out. Not a flash marble-floored apartment but very good value accommodation!

Muri Beach itself was wonderful. The snorkeling was good, the beach was great for walking. There were great places to eat, the food market was wonderful. The bus was easily accessed and cheap to ride. The accomodations left us feeling unsatisfied. We chose this place because of the amenities. However, the place itself lacked comfy sitting in the living area, broken pool chairs and deck chair They offered a lagoon view but cabin #2 which we were in had the pool pump shed in front of us which gave a limited view of the lagoon. We would have bbq'd but there was no fuel. You could not sit on the porch in the afternoon as there was no shade, a table umberella would have been usfeul. A few fixes and this place would be great. It's just tired...

We loved our stay at Manea. The bungalow was really clean and by the lagoon. Wendy is very friendly and very hospitable, she has always made sure we had everything we needed and was kind to let us do an early check-in and late check out due to a time mistake with our flight. We will recommend Manea, especially for independent travelers and the ones who would like a self-contained accommodation for a reasonable price.
