They came to escape.

Here's what they found.

  • A fabulous quiet and relaxing place for time at Muri. New List Item

    Jules and her team are fabulous and so much better than an impersonal resort. Met some great people in the other suites as well.
    Highly recommend looking if Jules has a vacancy. You won’t be disappointed.

  • Made our stay here exceptional

    Clean and modern rooms. The optional AC was appreciated, location was outstanding, and our hosts - Jill on site & Jules who kept in touch with us from New Zealand, made our stay here exceptional. Huge shout out to Jill who proactively took care of our every need while here.

  • We wouldn't think of staying anywhere else.

    Awesome location, adults-only, super private yet intimate with only 3 rooms. Super comfy hang out area and pool to chill in. Rooms great, beds comfortable and good facilities. Jules is an amazing host. We wouldn't think of staying anywhere else. Highly recommend
