About this property
Large modern home perfect for the whole family or group of friends.
Bring your whole family, your work team, your wedding group or just a few friends and enjoy this private, spacious house by the beautiful Muri Lagoon.
The once famous Flametree Restaurant has been fully renovated by new owners in to a modern six-bedroom, 5 bathroom house where everyone has room to relax. This rambling single level villa, with easy access and large living spaces, is situated in Muri village with the beach and village (with cafes, restaurants and convenience stores) right on your doorstep.
A distinctive feature of the house is the large covered deck over the flowing stream (where unique fish life can be viewed), ideal for functions or simply enjoying the shade and the wonderful climate of Rarotonga. Or step through the gate, 50m along the park and you are on the lagoon where you can enjoy swimming, kayaking in our double kayak provided, snorkeling, paddle-boarding or relaxing in the sun and you will love being in or lounging beside the swimming pool.
The house has six large bedrooms accommodating up to 15 people. We have one large accessible double bedroom with an ensuite accessible bathroom including hand rails and shower seat.
Each room has it's own external access for privacy and convenience. The beds are all king-sized that can be converted to twin singles - most rooms have plenty of space for extra beds and cots as well. Three of the bedrooms have en-suites, the other three rooms share two generous, fully appointed bathrooms.
We have a spacious car port where those cars, bikes and scooters can be parked safely undercover.
The house has all new beds and modern appliances including generous fridge and freezer space for groups. This is the ideal place for group accommodation for weddings, reunions, corporate events or any other special occasion. Full dining facilities for up to 50 people are available onsite including seating, tables, tableware and linen. (Arrangements can be made on request).
Special conditions:
Smoking allowed outside only - butts must be disposed of properly.
Small children require supervision on deck.
Extras: Cleaning (included); Linen (included);

About the host
Hosted by CINDY Adams-Vining

Having visited Rarotonga many times helping to run sailing regattas for young Cook Islands and NZ sailors, we decided to buy a house that we could holiday in and share with others.
We purchased the Flametreee Restaurant in 2014 and began the ambitious project of transforming this into a large house that would accommodate our families and friends.
We thoroughly enjoyed this project (that took almost two years), getting to know the locals, builders, contractors, neighbours and the legal processes.
We currently live on our boat in Picton New Zealand to be close to our older and younger families and travel to Rarotonga at least twice a year - staying as long as we can.
We are so fortunate to have good neighbours and friends who manage our property and our guests for us on the island as well as a delightful pair of cleaners who take a great deal of pride in the house.
In 2017 the swimming pool was installed and is very much enjoyed by our guests as well as the close proximity to the lagoon.

Why they chose this property
We chose the Flametree as we saw it had loads of potential for us to use our creative flair with renovations. We love Muri area and wanted our house to be in this area where it is close to the lagoon and all the other amenities as well as being part of a typical Rarotongan neighbourhood.
What makes this property unique
We are receiving very positive feedback from guests who are particularly loving the space the house offers with plenty of quiet corners or larger social areas.
The proximity and easy access to the lagoon is also a bonus as is the pool right in the back yard.
Another unique feature of the Villa is the marine life in the stream. Some of the eels (Tuna) -who you can see in the water most days, are over 80 years old and are famous with all the locals on the island.
