Muri Beach Club Hotel

Wonderful place with a great location. The staff are all very friendly, every single gle one of them and they go out of their way to remember your name.

We had a fantastic time - the pool, lagoon, cocktails and food were all excellent - but the staff were hands down the best part of our stay. They were all kind, friendly and considerate, and remembered everyone's name. My pedicure & massage were also wonderful. We are definitely returning for another visit.

Our stay at Muri beach club was superb. We were here for our honeymoon. The resort was so clean and the staff were great. Nothing was a hassle. Drinks and cocktails kept flowing. Staff take pride in their work and customer service was awesome.

Fabulous stay at the Muri Beach Club Resort. The service from all staff was exemplary - especially Jim, Israel, Kat, Michael, Jen and Rowena. Also, the lady who cleaned and kept our room spotless, (sorry I don’t know your name), whilst always smiling. Great place to stay with great cocktails. Thanks to all who made our stay so memorable. We will be back.

I mostly enjoyed a solo week snorkeling on Rarotonga of the Cook Islands in April 2024, coming from the U.S. through Tahiti. Getting there takes some doing. I used LAX, one of the worst U.S. airports, as my U.S. gateway, and Air Tahiti Nui, a great airline, to get to Tahiti. After transferring a checked bag back through security on Tahiti, I took another, nearly 3-hour, turbo prop flight with Air Tahiti, a different but also well-run airline company, to Raro. The one logistical mistake I made was pre-arranging my transfers between the Raro airport and the Muri Beach Club Hotel (MBCH) through the hotel with Cook Island Tours (CIT). The transfer with CIT to the hotel on arrival was fine. However, the CIT transfer back to the airport from the MBCH did not show up, and after waiting 20 minutes, I decided to punt and take the island bus back to the airport to ensure I made my departure flight on time. A MBCH front-desk staffer at the time appeared to try to call CIT at my request to check on their status but seemed not to be getting through. I emailed and called both MBCH and CIT for an explanation, and half a refund, but never got a response from either. So, either CIT had a problem or, possibly, someone cancelled my pickup for some inexplicable reason. My suggestion would be to just use the island bus for transfers and island outings. It may run 15-20 min late on occasion, but usually close to on-time and certainly more dependable than sketchy arrangements between hotels, their staff and private transfer companies. And while the bus takes only a few minutes longer than using a private vehicle, you get an enjoyable, more local, experience. The bus is also MUCH cheaper: 5 NZD/person/one-way trip, plus 2 NZD/large suitcase; temporarily no service on Sundays. The restaurant and bar staff at MBCH were great; many were hospitality workers from Fiji. The snorkeling was enjoyable but not sure it is worth the extra travel effort.

Absolute bliss beautiful location ,we were spoilt rotten there by their fabulous staff ( our favorite being Michael) a free cocktail every afternoon with canapes. Loved swimming in the pool and dinning in the restaurant. Great menu with five star food . Will definitely be back.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Muri Beach Club Hotel! Everything was perfect from start to finish. The location is truly the best in Rarotonga, especially if you're a fan of Muri Lagoon. It's an ideal spot for snorkeling, paddle boarding, and kayaking, and the fact that these activities are complimentary is a fantastic bonus. One of the highlights for us was the pleasantly uncrowded a**osphere, allowing for a peaceful and relaxing experience. The pool area is fantastic, providing a refreshing retreat after a day of island adventures. The staff truly went above and beyond to ensure our stay was memorable, with special thanks to Michael and Jhen for their exceptional service. We can't wait to return to Muri Beach Club Hotel for another unforgettable vacation!

Thank you so much to Liana and the Team at Muri Beach Club Hotel for putting together our dream wedding. The day ran so smoothly and we couldn’t be happier. The hotel itself was so beautiful, it truly was paradise. Would definitely recommend coming and staying here.

We keep coming back to this resort and that is largely down to the people. The staff are all wonderful and make a point of knowing you by name from day one. The resort itself is in a fantastic position and well maintained. The pool on our last visit was looking a bit weathered but we were told this is to be upgraded early next year. It really doesnt affect the use of it and we spent a lot of time in the pool. Returning visitors are acknowledged and it makes going back well worth it. Thanks to Kat, Rowena, Elenoa, Maa, Micheal and the rest of the wonderful team for another great holiday experience.
