My sister and two nieces stayed from Auckland. It was a wonderful break with treasured family. We only used the hot tub once as we were so busy. Highly recommend.
The Property was everything that we expected. The only negative was that we couldn't access the wifi or the televisions. We had a wonderful time staying though.
I booked this for a birthday get-together with girlfriends and it did not disappoint. Fabulous place, stunning views and location, and excellent, friendly and very helpful hosts. Definitely an A plus effort! Loved all the thoughtful little touches, the unique venue and the adorable doggos! Unreservedly recommended.
Fantastic stay at this stylish home. Very spacious and functional home for a family of 6. Well equipped kitchen and fantastic spaces for relaxing and socialising. A short walk to Māpua wharf and biking tracks. Would love to stay again!
The house set up was great for our family group with young kids, great outside area. Location was handy to walk into the village. Host was accommodating with some extra requests we had. Unfortunately the pool was out of action for our stay (we didn't know until we arrived) an arrangement was made with the host to compensate for this. Would stay again
