Great place right across from the beach. The hosts provided excellent information about the area and provided a shovel for hot water beach. The location is ideal for walking to the town centre and restaurants. Endless pathways along the beach for morning and evening walks. The apartment provides all amenities one needs, though laundry must be done 10am-4pm. Our favourite town of our New Zealand vacation.
