Restful, comfortable, wonderful views.

The house was warm and very comfortable with decks providing outdoor seating and was across the road from the beach perfect for walking and swimming. We loved the views from the house and the quiet restfulness of the area.

Reconnecting with our whakapapa

Beautiful stay, had a nice kaupapa on at the Marae, this is the birthplace of my Nanny, so nice to be here xx lovely home, suited us perfectly. Good comms to owners, perfect weather, loved the beach, no TV for 5 days, perfect! I told Dad it didn't work lol! Not providing sheets and towels was a little hoha because we came from North Island... so something to consider without a fee... But thank you, we will be back one day, when xxx Murihiku mauri ora!!
