Whangamata little snook

Modern, Clean tidy and quite spacious. Well appointed once one finds the place as there is no numbering or identification to help. Almost like a hideaway in plain sight. (perhaps the owners want it kept their little secret)

So handy for parkrun

Perfect location for parkrun; you can see the start/ finish from the bedroom! Was quite cold on a chilly Whangamatā night with just one small electric heater for the whole property but other than that it had everything you needed and was clean and tidy. We don’t need wifi so not an issue for us but be aware if you need to stay connected and don’t have data.

Basic and tidy but unfortunately noisey

We were looking forward to a much needed relaxing break after saving up for it all year, but unfortunately we weren't anticipating how noisey the road would be so unfortunately had to cut our holiday short due to this.
