    The property is in a great part of Roatonga. The view was superb and then swimming in that glorious water was great. So much to do if you are active. Scott was great, anything we needed he was there!

    If I had to be picky, the hornets around the villa was disconcerting, but we were advised how to utilise the apple cider vinegar to repel them.

    The villa and hosts catered to every need, from a detailed and alphabetical compendium to recommendations of things to do and where to go.

    Downstairs double bed mattress wasn’t as comfortable as other beds. Definitely felt a few springs. Another clothes horse would be handy for the rainy days. We did have some sort of visitor in the evenings that enjoyed counter top food. Probably our fault for not putting in fridge. Couldn’t work out how to get the trailer on the double kayak working.

    Beautiful deck, gorgeous wood cabin. Loved the clothes line and clothes horse with washing machine. Well maintained with friendly staff. Walking distance to muri village and lagoon. Loved the full kitchen and bathrooms. The plenty of towels was awesome. Appreciated the condiments and bathroom supplies. The brochures were helpful and having free wifi was very handy. Free use of bikes and boards very handy.

    The lizards, the roosters and the centipedes but understand there is very little that can be done about mother nature.

    It was as stated and had everything we could possibly need. We arrived at 9pm and the hosts had put a loaf of bread, butter, milk & jam in the fridge so we would have something for breakfast - it’s those kind of details that are really appreciated, thank you!

    We would have appreciated some shade umbrellas by the pool sun loungers.

    We loved our stay at Muri Vista Villas. The property had everything that we could have wanted with a pool, kayaks and SUP boards to use, giving resort vibes but also the privacy of not staying at a resort. The grounds are meticulously maintained, the staff are friendly and helpful and there are even friendlier resident cats that greeted us daily. Our villa was spacious, the beds were comfortable and the air conditioning in both rooms with double beds was very much appreciated. Very well stocked kitchen for cooking at home. I can't rate Muri vista villas high enough, we will definitely be back.

    Nothing at all. We had the most amazing stay :)

    We just returned after spending 5 nights at Muri Vista Villas. Thank you so much Rose & Scott, your property exceeded our expectations! You could literally walk into this accommodation with your clothes as everything else is provided. Everything has been thought of and there are so many small touches that make it feel like home. A coffee machine, blender and the washing machine were definitely appreciated. The beds were super comfy and the pillows were amazing. No shortage of pillows and blankets etc. Our villa, Villa 1 had two bedrooms on the lower level - the one with two single beds and a double room - the double room had air con. Upstairs had another double room with air con and then also an open room with another double in there. So much room for 5 adults. It was great to have the option of the air con in a couple of the rooms. We loved using all of the extras like the kayaks and the bikes. You can ride around the whole island if you wish. Again everything was included like bike helmets etc. There are extra snorkels and reef shoes there that other visitors have left behind so they are also there to be used. The pool is perfect to come back to after a hot day. The communication with Rose before our trip was so great and she answered all of the questions that I had in such a quick manner. We loved getting to know the two kitties at the property - they were super cute :) The location was great - Muri shops and restaurants were just down the road. Everything is so close on the island. We used the bikes to ride around the local area. Just watch out as the driveway is super steep so walk the bikes down if you aren't confident going down the hill. The first day we snorkelled just out the front of the Pacific Resort as our plane got in early and we weren't due to book into Muri Vista Villas until 2pm. We didn't want to leave! Thank you Rose & Scott we cannot wait to come back!

    Was very surprised that the double bed upstairs was in the back room with no view compared to the two singles that had an amazing view with the deck as well personally I would change this around or give guests the option to have the bedding arrangements changed for their stay.

    Loved the character of the log villa. Loved the views from each balcony. Loved the setting. Everything was very clean and well kept around the property. The villa was very spacious and was well stocked. Fantastic having the bbq. Lots of small appliances to use eg air fryer and blender and coffee machine. The starlink internet access was fantastic. Really appreciated all of the things round the ground such as the pool , trampoline and even the coconut dehusker which the kids loved seeing the adults use. The bikes and the kayaks were also a great thing to have. Having the outdoor towels also very handy for the beach and poolside. As well as having the appropriate mud buggy towels too what a great idea. Overall our stay here was fabulous. .
