Starting from its large front covered veranda (perfect for watching the world go by), thru sliding doors the home opens up into the main living area with plush furnishings a fully equipped kitchen and dining area, and two extra single beds. On the mountainside of the home is the master bedroom ensuring a most serene sleep. Aito also boasts a second porch facing the mountains and Muri's jungle interior. It's a twenty metre walk to Muri Lagoon, and a 15 minute walk to Rarotonga's best snorkeling area… the fruits of Rarotonga. Muri proper is again only 15 minutes away (but in the other direction) where you'll find restaurants, stores the Pacific resort, internet cafes and of course more Muri lagoon. Aito is ideally situated to be close enough to everything and far away enough from everything to make your stay as exciting or peaceful as you're in the mood for. ## Property amenities ### Internet -

There is plenty of parking. We were met by our hosts, Mere and Jean-Marc. Mere showed us into the apartment and then told us to let them know if there were any queries. There is a lounge/kitchen/dining area, a large bedroom with storage and a very large bathroom. The washing machine is outside and there are a couple of clothes lines. There is no aircon but a couple of ceiling fans and the slat windows, with fly screens, all open.The first day there was no gas but that was very quickly sorted out. Mere brought some beautiful food down to us which was so tasty. A great introduction to the local cuisine.You can see a small glimpse of the water from the apartment. But it's just a 5-minute walk to the beach and walking distance to a few restaurants, bars and cafes. It was a fabulous place to stay and we would be happy to stay there again. ##### Susan L.
