Beautiful home near the beach

Beautiful home, well appointed, exactly as you see in the photos. We really enjoyed our stay here. Visited the beach, hiked Mt Maunganui, went to Rotorua. Highly recommend and would definitely stay there again. A 3 hour drive from Auckland.

A wonderful extended family get together

The property was perfect. The games room acted as an additional communal space when others wanted some quiet space elsewhere. The kitchen was well appointed enabling us to have a full family dinner.
