About the host
Hosted by Caro August
Caro was born and raised in New Zealand, she works locally as a social worker. Mark immigrated to NZ from South Africa in 2011, and works in project management.

We both love meeting new people so hosting comes naturally.

Why they chose this property
We are located in residential area of Bethlehem, Tauranga close to motorways, yet far enough away to not hear the traffic. This enables easy access for travellers and also those wanting to get into the city quickly. We are far enough away from the hussle and bussle of main beach Mt Maunganui yet an easy drive over the harbour bridge to enjoy the beach and all that Mt Maunganui/Papamoa has to offer.
What makes this property unique
We are equipped for short and long term stays. Local shops are just down the road while major supermarkets are with a 5 minute drive.
