Down a quiet Muri road, Manea Beach combines spotless one-bedroom bungalows – some with lagoon views – and three larger three-bedroom houses that are perfect for families or groups of friends. The decor is a winning combination of modern and tropical, and there’s a pleasant shared pool overlooking nearby Muri Lagoon.
