The Verandah at Gisborne

This is a lovely spacious villa which has been furnished and decorated with families or groups to enjoy.

Big place, great with a group
This is an older villa with a mix of old and new. There are an impressive amount of spaces to socialize: two living rooms, front deck, back deck, large eat-in kitchen, indoor or outdoor dining areas. We particularly enjoyed the renovated kitchen and back deck with large garden space. The neighbourhood was quiet and after our tough trail race we enjoyed retreating to a bit of A/C and books available in the home. The home's rooms are large and well equipped. It was a quick drive to the beach, and a nice local cafe is within walking distance. The backyard would be amazing for lawn games or kids. The carpets could use some updating as well as the twin mattresses (I slept on one) though the big picture is that it's an amazing space. I look forward to another stay someday.

Wedding Occassion
We feel blessed to have had the property as our base for my daughters wedding where she came to prepare herself before the church service. The spacious rooms and outdoor areas gave us the ambience to enjoy the special moments that comes with such a celebration. The well stocked kitchen provided all we needed as well. Only issue was the main oven fan created alot of smoke so we didnt use it but the smaller oven was sufficient. Woukd gladly stsy again.
