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 3 min drive \- 2.7 km - ![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 3 min drive \- 3.1 km - ![Muri Beach showing tropical scenes](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6055267/2a662e9a-fcb0-4422-924d-ae96403bf801.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Muri Beach 7 min drive \- 5.3 km - ![Tikioki Marine Sanctuary which includes tropical scenes and a sandy beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6127390/e02911f9-2556-403b-a503-fd0755d9eec2.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Tikioki Marine Sanctuary 9 min drive \- 7.2 km - ![Aroa Beach featuring a beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6142568/e187d45e-74b6-4f0e-88da-69c4de2432fe.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Aroa Beach 19 min drive \- 15.6 km ### Getting around - Rarotonga (RAR-Rarotonga Intl.) 17 min drive ### Restaurants - Tamarind House 6 min drive - Palace Takeaway 10 min drive - Vili's Burger Joint 12 min walk - Ka Kite Cafe 12 min drive - Trader Jacks Bar & Grill 8 min drive ## Frequently asked questions ### Is ShineAwayHomes- Mountain view pet-friendly? ### What time is check-in at ShineAwayHomes- Mountain view? ### What time is check-out at ShineAwayHomes- Mountain view? ### Where is ShineAwayHomes- Mountain view located? ## Have a question?
