Great property for a group, right on the beach..

We had a wee hiccup to start with, where the cleaning team had forgotten to clean before our arrival, but the property manager sorted everything out promptly, and the stay itself was great. Plenty of room for everyone, and good kitchen tools and supplies so we could cook and serve meals. Lovely hearing the sounds of the sea as you fall asleep! Would happily stay again anytime.

Lovely bach right at the beach.

We barely arrived when my teen was exclaiming, "this is the best holiday home we've ever been to". And it is. A lovely home with all the usual amenities, plus a porch and giant backyard. The kids absolutely loved running free. And the ocean is just across the road. We had a great week and really enjoyed exploring the area.

Beautiful bay

We had a lovely stay. Beautiful views from the second story, lots of space and everything you need for cooking etc. The house was clean and in a lovely location. The coffee at the local cart is 2 min walk away, and it’s great. Drive to Bay Expresso for a super yummy breakfast or lunch. Waimarama beach is not too far to drive it and it’s amazing! We also enjoyed berry picking in the warm weather (and Splash Planet!).

Great location

This property is in a great location however we unfortunately were hit with bad weather during our stay so did not get to enjoy it. The house definitely needs some upgrading, in particular the carpet and things like the taped window in the bottom bathroom. Otherwise, good facilities and huge outdoor space.
