Two sides to this story.

Since 2022 we have opened one side to families. The one bedroom Bungalows in our Manea Wing are family friendly - walk 150metres along the beach and the Purotu wing remains Adults only (over 12 years)

 
 

CASUAL LUXURY 


The perfect location to un-wind, un-plug and kick off your shoes on the shores of Aitutaki,  Tamanu Beach. 

ALL of our Bungalows include…

  • Dream it.

    TBR began as a vision of our father. Today ALL of our family have contributed to make his vision a reality.

    ALL bungalows are tropicalised with large sliding doors and screened windows. They ALL have air-conditioning and ceiling fans for the warm summer nights.

  • Build It.

    All bungalows feature modern bathrooms with spacious walk in showers. We milled our own Tamanu (local mahogany) timber vanity tops and Toa (ironwood) towel rails.

    Walk through to your private outdoor shower.

    With WIFI throughout the property you will stay in touch with the world. ALL bungalows have 43” TV’s and IDD phones.

    On the few days that it rains you can still enjoy “outdoor living” on your own daybed on the kwila decked verandah.

  • Theme it.

    It all begins with an idea.

    We wanted to step back in time but with a modern feel. As Islanders we grew up with outdoor amenities…now you too can shower under the stars…

  • Localise it.

    ALL of the artwork in our rooms are from Aitutaki. Our cousin Tim Buchanan spent 18 months on island inspirations that now hang on our walls.

    ALL Bungalows have California or Superking beds.

    To keep your drinks cold, ALL bungalows have a bar fridge and for the coffee junkies we have added capsule espresso machines.

    To keep you looking sharp ALL bungalows have Hairdryers and Ironing facilities.
