This was our 3rd visit to the Cook Islands and our 3rd stay with Muri Beachcomber. Every time has been a fantastic experience. This resort is low key, but service is excellent. The front desk is always helpful in making reservations, answering questions, or helping us plan out a day. The free washing machine (small charge for dryer) is very convenient. The daily maid service with breakfast packs is friendly and efficient. The location right on the lagoon is fabulous. We enjoyed sunrises with coffee on the deck, paddling kayaks and swimming in the lagoon, and the location convenient to groceries, restaurants, coffee shops, and the Muri Night Market. It's a long haul from Yakima WA to the Cook Islands, but the newer Hawaiian Air route from SeaTac to Honolulu to Roratonga (one time a week on Saturdays, same route back on Sundays) fit well with our travel plans. I hope we get to return again in the future.
