Manuia Beach Boutique Hotel

Frommer's Review

This intimate little establishment has 20 rooms in 10 duplex bungalows set rather close together on a narrow rectangle of beachfront land. Tropical foliage helps give the garden units some semblance of privacy, but the six beachfront units definitely are the choice here. They have king-size beds, as opposed to queens, and a view of the reef across an infinity-edge swimming pool. Sliding glass doors lead to semiprivate wooden verandas on all units. Angled shower stalls in one corner and lavatories in another maximize space in the rather small bathrooms. Each garden unit has both a queen and a single bed. None of the rooms have kitchens, but you can amble down to the Right on the Beach Restaurant and dig holes in its white-sand floor while enjoying a meal or snack. The facilities here do not live up to the "boutique hotel" claim, but the staff will call you by your first name while providing excellent service.
