Guest reviews for Magic Reef Bungalows

"This place is literally out of a dream. The rooms are gorgeous and so peaceful, the small size of the hotel makes it very quiet and relaxing, and the staff is beyond amazing. We can’t wait to come back, and will stay here for all trips to the Cook Islands!"

"Absolutely nothing, everything was perfect"

"Everything! The bungalow was modern but traditional island design. It was on the beach. The whole property is well maintained and even better than the pictures"

"It would have been nice to have a cocktail party/or group activity organized"

"Magic Reef Bungalows was a great base for our week in the Cook Islands. Well located to Avarua, the best snorkeling beaches, and great restaurants. Our bungalow was on the beachfront, clean and had everything we needed. And being on the western side of the island set us up for great sunsets."

"Magic Reef is beautiful, the landscaping is lush and gorgeous and right on the water. Great for sunsets! The bungalows are perfect for a couple and we appreciated the fruit platter, juice and coffee on the first day very much."

"The water is a bit rocky directly in front so you cannot jump in for a dip."

"We had the best experience at Magic Reef from the moment we arrived. Simone is very accommodating and available for all of our needs. Perfect location. Beautiful gardens. Delicious breakfast on the first day, and available to purchase each day. If/when we come back to Rarotonga we will definitely stay here again."

"What an amazing time we had here in Rarotonga! The entire staff were so helpful and accommodating; a joy to interact with. The comfortable bungalows were stocked with all the kitchen supplies and essentials we needed (plus more!). The bathroom in our room was brand new, and felt like such a luxury. And all the seating options on the beach (hammocks, lounge chairs, bean bags, tables and chairs on the pavilion) were comfortable and added to our enjoyment while we were there. Highly recommend!"

"Beautiful property that is taking care of very well. Staff and owners are wonderful people."

"Nothing"

"Beautiful secluded spot on the beach. Only about 8–10 bungalows, so no more than 20 people there at a time. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Captain the resort cat is a welcome addition to the staff :)"

"The outdoor shower was a little chilli on the days it is very windy but by no means a negative."

"Amazing location with the beach was right in front of the bungalow. Very quiet and private."

"Aucun."

"We enjoyed the Polynesian decor, the privacy of the bungalows, and having our own lanai. We loved hearing the spund of the waves! The fully equipped kitchenette was a bonus. We really liked the wonderful tropical outdoor shower and bath too. The pool was clean and refreshing! Lawrence, Simone and Jayne were readily available either on site or by phone. When Lawrence picked us up at the airport, he made a stop at a local market so we could buy supplies before we checked in. There are restaurants and bars an easy walk along the beach from Magic Reef."

"Going home!"

"Incredible location near the beach and close to the shop. Beautiful large garden and extremely well equipped kitchen. And we loved the cat and the dogs and chickens in the garden. Lots of towels were a real luxury. Lovely comfy beds 😀 and very handy having the top loading washing machine. It felt like a home rather than just a holiday place and was much bigger than we expected from the photos and description on Booking.com"

"We loved the privacy of the villa. It was a great size for our family of five. The hosts were super friendly and helpful. The kitchen had everything you needed. We highly recommend it. The pool was great too."

"Amy's place was the perfect tropical home away from home! And the price is a steal compared to the hotels and resorts around the island. When I return from a day of exploring, I want peace and solitude with my family which is exactly what we found here. We'll definitely be back!"

"Excellent location. Fantastic Lodge and HUGE! We had a couple of issues with water filter but this was soon seen to by Brendon. Thank you Muri Lodge....we LOVED our stay in Rarotonga and all promising to return!"

"I don’t even have the words to explain how amazing everything was at this place. They were incredibly helpful from the very beginning, assisting with everything. They took me into town and to the airport, and constantly checked in to see if I needed anything. The views are stunning, and the facilities are more than enough. The kitchen has everything you could need as well. Thank you so much for the unforgettable time."
