Mark was very informative regarding the accommodation, which was comfortable, clean and tidy. The area was slightly small but we organized ourselves and enjoyed the hospitality. Thank you Mark

A little gem
Right on the beach at Ruby Bay & walking distance to Mapua, this is a great little place to stay. Quiet & clean, with a friendly, helpful host.

Ruby Bay
An amazing property from the owner, his awesome dog Ivy, and the access to the beach. Mike was informative and caring, Ivy was energetic and welcoming and the area is spectacular. We stayed two nights but would have loved a week as there is much to see in the area. Thanks for the awesome stay.

Neat and Tidy
Quite a small room but totally everything there we needed. Good grounds for the coffee plunger too. The address is a handy enough 30 minute walk into Mapua. We recommend the Mapua Sprig and Fern pub for a meal and some nice beers!

Short stay at Ruby Bay
We only had a brief overnight stay so couldn't make the most of the deck or beach access. On the small size but very well equipped and all we needed!
