About this property

Island Time Villas - Villa Kakaia

Island Time Villas offers one of the best holiday accommodation alternatives. There are no confined spaces here, just lots of freedom, perfect for that "get away from it all" holiday.

Comprising two separate 3-bedroom villas, each villa can be rented individually or together to accommodate up to 12 people - ideal for extended or 2-family holidays.
**See our other listing # 20026118 for Villa 1 Marino.**

Located at the southern end of Muri Lagoon, great snorkelling and swimming is only a short stroll away. The beach is less than 100 metres away with access via a walkway directly opposite the villas.

There are great outdoor areas on the large property including a plunge pool, gazebo and lovely gardens with an array of tropical palms and flowers.

Being family friendly we have portacots and highchairs available for use during your stay should you require them.

Located at the rear of the property, Villa 2 “Kakaia” has great views towards the lush interior mountains.

Spacious in lay-out and decorated with pacific flair, the tropical colours of palm frond green and red hibiscus will definitely remind you that you’re on holiday in the Pacific.

Outdoor entertaining is well catered for with an extended covered verandah flowing out from the living room and kitchen, making al-fresco bbqs a breeze.

Why they chose this property

Island Time is a family-owned property - a great place to stay with plenty of room to spread out. The villas are well positioned on the large section with extensive plantings offering great privacy between the two. Each villa has a small selection of dvds, cds, games and books available for use plus WIFI access. We also have a plunge pool on the property for that quick morning or afternoon cool-down plus kayaks for paddling on Muri Lagoon. There are 3 single kayaks for shared use between the two villas. We are approximately 75m from the beach with access via a pathway across the road opposite the villas.

What makes this property unique

Fantastic location at the southern end of Muri and within walking distance to some great restaurants and activities. Close enough to all the action yet far enough away to escape the hustle and bustle of Muri village - here you really can relax and experience "island time".
