Excellent base
Wonderful place for a group of us to connect and plan ahead for the year. Lots of space inside and out and very well equipped. Short walk to the olde Beach cafe for breakfast was the icing on the cake. Thanks for sharing your space with us :)

Beautiful stay
Property is really nice and well maintained. The house has open areas for being in groups and also separate areas for quiet time. Was lovely for a group of adults, but would suit family groups really well.

Beautiful property, impeccable vibes
We loved our overnight stay at this beautiful whare! There’s a very cute outdoor seating area, a great sun room for reading and relaxing, lots of sleeping areas so plenty of room for the whānau, and the hosts left behind lots of info about the area (food spots etc). We’re already planning our next stay :)
