Manuia Resort sits on Rarotonga's sheltered sunset coast, a 10-minute ride from Rarotonga International Airport with complimentary transfers both ways. A car rental agency is located directly across the road, and the public bus stops at the resort gate. Snorkelling beaches like A'roa Beach are a 10-minute drive, while the famous Muri Beach is 15 minutes away.
