Awesome place to stay
Great, comfortable, quiet place to stay. Hosts have thought of all the little things for a pleasant stay. Games, streaming services, fruit, breakfast supplies, well equipped kitchen. The beds were really comfortable. Hosts were very prompt with communication. Easy place to stay and 5 minute walk to the beach. Highly recommend.

About the host

Host profile image
Hello, I’ve lived on the Kapiti Coast for 28 years 🤯 Love it here. My husband and I have been hosting since March 2024 with the Raumati Guest house, it been a interesting process and love meeting new people.

Why they chose this property

The area is close to the beach, park, boutique shopping and Cafe/restaurants. Great for families and holiday makers.

What makes this property unique

We have a 1 year old stand alone unit, self contained with a fully fenced child friendly section. We have been told time again that the Guest House is a home away from home ❤️, very comfortable and a great option to stay in.
