I am not so sure that my hubby felt the same!!You need a car or scooter - which are cheap as chips. The staff could not have been more lovely - they are superb. I will be back with the grand children. ##### Christine Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Judy 29 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, communication I liked the view of muri lagoon from our studio and that it was situated off the main road. However, it is not a quiet place to stay as it faces the lagoon and on a windy day (which we had many during our stay) it howled through the studio. Roosters and barking dogs also made it a challenge to sleep. Ear plugs were essential. ##### Judy Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lois 22 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Was a great place to stay. Nice to be away from the crowds of tourists. Plenty to do with the pool, canoes etc - there is a lot more sea life in the water than further up the lagoon. Desiree was so helpful and accomodating- nothing was too much trouble. The cleaning staff were excellent and very friendly. Would definitely stay here again. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a3a7e893-d44e-4a33-bcca-732ea7d6eb9c-1755839077882.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0f362b58-3986-4663-a6ae-3d41b8619cd8-1755839077035.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d54574c4-824d-4960-aba9-6dadefcc6801-1755839077924.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Lois Stayed 11 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marcos 16 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Wonderful place. ##### Marcos Stayed 8 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### kym 20 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Absolutely loved staying at the Avana.

The studio has all the amenities , and a wonderful view of the lagoon from the deck. It’s close enough to Muri restaurants, stores and the night market to make it easy for dining options and breakfast coffee. Had a lovely time paddling in the kayaks and swimming in the pool when the weather was windy. Friendly, helpful staff who do their best to make sure you get a wonderful holiday. We loved our 2 weeks here and look forward to returning . ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8f4a4227-ee04-4755-beec-234beef7456c-1754565027050.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/add34649-608e-417b-b9ff-46b7adafbae8-1754565026914.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Bridget Stayed 13 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brent 24 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### a week in Raro Always great to stay here, so handy to all that you need, was here for work but some down time was found. ##### Brent Stayed 8 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael Graham 29 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Great place that enabled versatility on how we could experience Rarotonga ##### Michael Graham Stayed 8 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kate 1 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Had a great stay at Avana Apartments!

This place is value for your money ##### Glen Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### John Murray 3 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication We had an upstairs room that was large & comfortable with a balcony ,bed was good plenty of chairs ,the view from the deck was good although impaired by trees which could do with a bit of thinning out , beach & pool were good & closeby. plenty of choice with kayaks single & double with great paddling to the nearby Island & round the lagoon although launching was hard at low tide on the stones . Allthough advertised with air conditioning we found on arival it was an extra cost per day because of expensive power.however we had an enjoyable time at this location. ##### John Murray Stayed 8 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brent 2 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### First trip 4 2023 Back on the rick for a week with work, great to stsy at Avana, staff fantastic, service top, i will be back ##### Brent Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [R2 Pájara Beach Hotel & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pajara-Hotels-R2-Pajara-Beach-Hotel-Spa-All-Inclusive.h12542179.Hotel-Information) > > [Citadines Sainte-Catherine Brussels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brussels-Hotels-Citadines-Sainte-Catherine-Brussels.h889867.Hotel-Information) > > [Corendon Playa Kemer](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kemer-Hotels-Grand-Park-Kemer-All-Inclusive.h13401623.Hotel-Information) > > [Caravan Parks Greece](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Greece-Caravan-Parks.d67-aaCaravanParks.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Fairmont Taghazout Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aourir-Hotels-Fairmont-Taghazout-Bay.h66147288.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Hotels in County Tyrone](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-County-Tyrone-Luxury-Hotel.0-0-d6054323-tLuxuryHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [5 Star Hotels in St. Helier](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-St-Helier-Hotels.s50-0-d4306.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Apt de Charme Rue St André des Arts](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paris-Hotels-Apt-De-Charme-Rue-St-Andre-Des-Arts.h33693413.Hotel-Information) > > [Casa De Maris Spa & Resort Hotel - Adult Only +16](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marmaris-Hotels-Casa-De-Maris-Spa-Resort-Hotel-All-Inclusive.h9079232.Hotel-Information) > > [Windhoek Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windhoek-Hotels-Windhoek-Country-Club.h527043.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Dubai Emirate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Dubai.d1079.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lisbon-District-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel.h524550.Hotel-Information) > > [KempinskiHotelsResorts Hotels in London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Kempinski-Hotels-Resorts.0-0-d178279--bKempinskiHotelsResorts.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Warner Bros.
