Fantastic location
Wonderful stay. Very clean and beautifully appointed. Fantastic location with easy walk to town and around the cliffs. Couldn’t find the spa but didn’t detract from the stay. Perhaps just update the amenities list. Highly recommended - would definitely book again.

Host profile image
We are a lively family of 6 with 2 mini-dachshunds, I am originally from Germany but been living in NZ married to my "kiwi"-hisband for over 23 years. I've been hosting since 2017 and never short of stories from that space:)

Why they chose this property

We have been living on this Street since 2008 and never looked back. having the Ocean right here! Felt it's a great move to share with other people! its such a great location, close to town but still feeling like on a holiday! Most of the attractions are walking distance and waking up to the sunrise over the ocean, what else would you want?
