Avana Waterfront Apartments

Fantastic site right on the lagoon. Unimpeded lagoon/island views from all units. Private jetty for fishing and swimming. Nice pool too. Great spot for a family break, away from the big resorts. Lovely friendly helpful staff.

Be careful when booking of you need to cancel .. they take your money straight away but if the currency rate changes you will be out of pocket even though they state no cancellation fee Be aware when booking

Typical of what you would expect from apar**ents. However….. right on the inlet with their own jetty. Lovely to walk out either morning or afternoon and feed the fish. Your own reef fish on the doorstep just as good as any other location. Kayaks and snorkelling gear provided. Turtles off the end of the jetty. I don’t think you would get that anywhere else. Close to Muri beach with the food market and a whole host of activity options. It was the nice touches like a personalised welcome note on the door when you arrive, fruit and bread already there that made a difference. But the main asset was Desiree. Nothing was a problem and she was always there to assist with anything.

Loved our stay at Avana Waterfront Apar**ents. Large open plan room with kitchen & bathroom with deck over looking the jetty. Had everything we needed, bed was so comfy & the bread & jams/butter were a lovely surprise for breakfast. The place is abit out of Muri town but we had scooters so was easy to find & get around. The pool was great to get in after a kayak to the motu opposite & the fish feeding was amazing off the jetty. Would definitely go back on our next trip

The staff was awesome, location was good. Gardens and pool were awesome. But there was cupboard’s falling apart, The wardrobe had a real bad smell so I wouldn’t hang my clothes. Very hard to get out of the driveway on to the main road. We never got any replenishment (milk, coffee, tea,suger) Room was only serviced every 3-4 days.

We absolutely loved our stay at avana waterfront! Desiree could not have been more lovely and made us feel so at home. She was so accommodating letting us arrive early, and stay right up until we had to leave for the airport - so kind and so appreciated! Our portacot was set up for us when we got there and bits and pieces in the fridge to start us off. The apar**ents are in an amazing location right on the water and the jetty to watch and feed fish. Lovely swimming right outside your apar**ent door! A nice 20 min walk into muri or a short drive. We will be back to stay again. Thankyou for everything!

A tranquil setting yet close to all shops n amenities. Families n singles well catered for. Angelyn and Beth are friendly and super helpful. Nothing is too much for these professionals. The showers are fantastic, bed is comfortable and the air conditioning will have you shivering. Fresh fruit always available. Free use of kayaks, snorkels, reef shoes and life jackets. Can't recommend highly enough. Meitaki maata. Hope to return soon

Location and unit was lovely. No hot water for the entire week even after multiple complaints. Our family of six had cold showers and washed dishes in cold water the whole seven days. Paid for 40GB of wifi to find modem was broken and couldn’t use the vouchers at all until modem replaced four days later (once vouchers had expired). Was forced to purchase $40 more of vouchers as only offered 2.5GB as compensation. Shower head broken but was replaced timely manner. Toilet falling over in downstairs bathroom. Broken door lock to ranchslider. No tea or sugar provided. Phone broken and didn’t work and replaced on day four. No freezer provided so couldn’t store food or even put ice in our drinks or freeze food. No oven, only a microwave and cooktop. Terrible tv picture quality with only rabbit ears. Huge gap between ceiling of our unit and adjacent apar**ent resulting in volume disturbance at times until 1.30am. This was awful. No service Sunday or after 4pm from management. Won’t be back. Minimal apologies and no offer of any reimbursement for issues.

This place is fantastic, the jetty and crystal clear waters are only metres from your outside balcony, there is a great pool that is so well maintained. The staff do a great job of keeping the entire property spotless and are always happy to help, it feels very safe here and is great for families. The highlight for my girls is the local cat they met which they have named Jerry, the owners tell us he is a stray but he clearly belonged to someone once as he is the friendliest little cat we have ever met, once we started feeding him he was never far away and would follow our 10 year old girls everywhere which they loved. We have found it very hard to say goodbye to Jerry so if you are lucky enough to meet him, please give him a little something to eat and a scratch under the chin.
