The location, the amenities, the staff! We loved it all. We took our 1 year old and it was perfect. The pool was lovely and newly renovated and looked after. walking distance to so many good spots and right on the beat swimming spot at the lagoon. Rooms are a little run down but kept cleans and tidy and we honestly loved our stay there.

We had an amazing stay in our 3 bedroom villa. Its homely and everything we needed. The neighborhood dogs looked after us. The pool was great. Walking distances to night market and lots of resorts around to go for a drink. Wifi was a bit here or there at the villa but excellent closer to the pool. Wendy was amazing.. let us move into another villa for our late flight checkout. Cant say enough she was super lively and we appreciated everything she did for us. Ill be back!

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!

The place is reasonably priced, but you can't trust the photos. We booked it based on the location (which is great), the pool, sun loungers, kayaks and view. When we were there in Sept the pool was out of action, and there was only one sun lounger and one kayak. The view from our lagoon view unit was obstructed by a shed, which often smelt like sewage, making sitting on the deck unpleasant. The unit itself was a bit run down, but was clean with plenty of towels and loo paper - which was good because it wasn't serviced during our 5 night stay. We applied for a partial refund through hotels.com given the lack of pool, sun loungers, and kayaks but were declined. We wouldn't have stayed if it wasn't for the outdoor photos in the listing so just wanted to warn everyone else.

Value for money and well located for sure. Unfortunately there was no snorkel masks or flippers and swimming gear though advertised was mostly rubbish and should be binned. Cleaner eventually brought 2 masks around but only one didn’t leak. Only one single kayak for entire complex. Overall I would stay again, but would bring my own snorkel gear.

The units are quite run down, shower quite dirty. Pillows need to be replaced as they are stained and cover torn. Villa was not ready and we didn’t get there until 4.30 pm. Freezer was all iced up and milk supplied (UHT) best before was three months ago. Room was supposed to have been serviced every three days but wasn’t, though the land lady did apologise and asked if there was anything we needed done. We just requested clean towels. There are boards on the deck that are rotten and warnings on the pool deck not to use as unsafe. Dogs barked most nights. As we were only there to sleep we managed but won’t stay there again. Pluses were the complementary pawpaws on arrival, free wifi, beach towels and a hair dryer.

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!
