Sweet space
The space is small and quite lovely. Particularly enjoyed the deck which extended the space and was both a cool, quiet, and private. On a nice, quiet road that’s a short walk to the ocean.

A lovely, relaxing comfortable stay. We had family staying at Bowentown, so this was close enough to stay, but "do our own thing" too. The unit has everything to make your stay easy - from sheets & towels to cook top, microwave & air-fryer & a swiveling TV that can be viewed either in the bedroom or lounge.

Comfortable Studio in Great Location
Studio had been thoughtfully and newly decorated and provided all kitchen and bathroom assessories for a lovely stay. Nice to have a private deck with comfy outdoor furniture. Here for 5 days and still lots to do! Accommodation 5mins walking distance from mineral hot pools- also not far by car to Waihi Beach village with shops and restaurants. Bowentown Reserve provided spectacular views - a must!
