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.

Lovely place by the Muri beach, still a bit construction there but I was able to use the swimming pool and beach, free kayaks were provided. Wendy and Sharon who runs the place are two lovely women. There is a grocery shop less than 5 minutes walk, some restaurants as well. I would definitely stay again there.

The reception by Wendy was great. The Villa was well prepared for my hubby and me. Fresh fruits, breakfast cereals were provided. However, we were not informed of the construction next to it. The pool could not be used nor the beach accessed because of the demolishing of the building next to the pool. The shower was cold; no hot water. Was looking forward to the pool and the beach.

Great location, basic place with perks.
Manea on Muri is in a great location. You can walk to all the main Muri shops and sights. Close to the night market and there are groceries close by. When we arrived the airport transfer did not show up and we ended up getting a ride with a friendly local. Not really acceptable as it was late at night but it did work out in the end as the key was under the door mat for us and the local contacted Fern the manager as we were on route. The room is basic but equipped. Bed is ok. Shower pressure and temperature terrible. A cot was supplied free of charge for my daughter. It made the villa a little small but we managed fine. There are no stove tops or ovens in the smaller villas. The listing said there are but I think it must just be for the bigger ones. Access to free kayaks and snorkel gear was really nice. We used them every day. Villas 2-4 have a tiny view of the lagoon as there is a property next door blocking the view. Pool was nice to have but we never used it as it was windier and cold near the pool most day and we snorkeled elsewhere on the island. Fern was lovely and chatty. The housekeeping popped by daily with fresh towels but never cleaned the room. She asked but we always said we were ok.

Right on the lagoon - it was perfect being able to wake up each day and go snorkelling straight away and see incredible fish (including a moray eel!) Close proximity to restaurants and shops :)

Very clean and tidy, use of snorkeling gear and kayaks. Wifi wasn’t working, asked the manager but it took a few days to get sorted (likely because bluesky didn’t send anyone to fix it)
