Company information

Mama Taras was originally booked for Mama Tara herself whom unfortunately never got to live in it due to medical issues. These villas became a passion project to honor the legacy of Mama Tara herself. Managed in part by the Muri Beach Club Hotel, which means access to 24hour Reception services.

Property information

Mama Taras are 3 fully furnished bedroom bungalows located 4 minutes walk to Muri Beach. These bungalows are very well maintained, have wifi and moana tv access, and serviced with full linen every 3 days. Each bungalow has its own little court yard with BBQ and bedrooms are airconditioned. Convenient access to to the best Muri has to offer - beaches, cafes, restaurants, night market, scooter and car hire, buggy & quad tour, snorkeling cruise and much more.

Neighbourhood information

Lovely village feel, Quiet area of the island with fruit and flower trees that hug the circumference of the land - feel free to help yourself to the fruit trees, chilli and bananas. The property has inherited a very friendly 'mama dog' that is your best friend, but at the same time becomes your little alert signal when you have visitors.
