We originally had booked Moana Sands Beachfront Studio villa for one night , on our return from Aitutaki as a place to stay before flying home to UK. Leilani ( manager) sent me a lovely email offering us an upgrade to a luxury studio room and a free late check out in their other Moana Sands Lagoon Resort , in Muri , just down the road . We were thrilled to have this opportunity , and it helped them with another booking for someone else that was staying longer at the beachfront villas studio. We were impressed with Moana Sands Lagoon Resort : every member of staff who passed us or spoke to us were so friendly and welcoming. Our room looked out on pool and seafront , with its little patio area with seating. Nice touch to have a free use of water sports equipment : so much choice of flippers snorkels , reef shoes to borrow ( and obviously wash out & put back after !). Our room had lovely modern coastal decor, huge shower , very comfy king bed and fridge with milk water and tea , coffee etc . Continental Breakfast was with cost of room but other nice menu options to order . Lagoon is stunning , great snorkelling and gorgeous beach. We ate at their restaurant on site and the food was just superb : fillet steak was so tender , the best steak we had in years. Vai ( waitress) was efficient and so helpful . Thank you to reception staff but extra special thank you to Leilani. Highly recommend this place.

    Ocean Escape Resort is a short walk from Muri right on the beach with supermarket and takeaways nearby. While the lagoon is unsuitable for swimming or water activities, the resort pool is a good size and a great place to relax being adult only. We enjoyed the onsite spa, well-appointed rooms, and we were very pleased with the breakfast hampers provided.

    Perfect location right on the beach. Snorkelling right out the front on a near deserted beach. Quiet and relaxing in an authentic Polynesian style bungalow. The washing machine was handy too.
