We discovered this place slightly out of town but still at walking distance where we could enjoy the lagoon with Kayaks or even walking during low tide. We could enjoy the beaches on small islands facing the deck only inhabited by beautiful crabs. #LifeAtExpedia](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6055262/0a7a11cd-31f5-48e4-adf8-e9e0eca68daa.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Avana Harbour 5 min drive \- 2.4 miles - ![Beachcomber Pearl Market featuring shopping](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6312659/d469dcc4-fcb4-4946-8d10-f9aedbfdfa94.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Beachcomber Pearl Market 5 min drive \- 2.4 miles - ![F70NJ0 Beach with palm trees over tropical water at Muri lagoon, Rarotonga, Cook Islands](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248621532611404/4089e2d1-66c9-4db4-a32a-b8bf27e36362.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Muri Lagoon 5 min drive \- 2.6 miles - ![Rarotonga featuring outdoor art](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6101154/cd1b07c4-487f-4100-95b3-0c044feefcff.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Cook Islands National Museum 6 min drive \- 2.6 miles - Wreck of the Matai 5 min drive \- 2.4 miles ### Getting around - Rarotonga (RAR-Rarotonga Intl.) 15 min drive ### Restaurants - Tamarind House 5 min drive - Palace Takeaway 8 min drive - Vili's Burger Joint 3 min drive - Trader Jacks Bar & Grill 7 min drive - Superbrown Take Away 3 min drive ## Frequently asked questions ### Does Ake Ake House a stylish and private retreat in the peaceful village of Matavera. have a pool? ### Is Ake Ake House a stylish and private retreat in the peaceful village of Matavera. pet-friendly? ### Where is Ake Ake House a stylish and private retreat in the peaceful village of Matavera. located? ## Have a question?
