Location, support and facilities were all great. The only fault was that there was a slightly unpleasant odor in the apartment.

Slice of paradise

Myself and 4 girlfriends needed some time away for a good catch up and what better way but to head to Waiheke!! We had such a fantastic time. The place was so clean and relaxing, but best of all so close to the beach you could hear the waves as you drifted off to sleep. Will definitely return! Thanks for having us!!

Location was great for the children. Easy to get to the beach and outside shower to rinse them off. The deck had great shade from the sun with the choice of warming up again. The facility had plenty utensils etc. All in all a fab weekend. Just beware on booking fees where others clip the ticket
