Relaxing chilled break in a beautiful part of NZ

We had a warm welcome from Gwen and look around the accommodation. Beautiful breakfast, decor and cosy to relax in. Checked in on us and closed our curtains in evening which was a lovely surprise to come back to after dark! Highly recommended!!!!

Looking to relax and chill out, and we achieved that. Wonderful property with a beautiful view of the sea and sunrises. Easy access to wineries, beaches, restaurants and everything else in between.

This was a great place for our short getaway, very tidy, comfortable and peaceful with everything we needed. It's a fenced property with a lovely garden and outdoor dining so was a perfect spot for us and our small dog both to relax, and as a base to explore more widely. Te Awanga beach is (of course) just a short walk away, Haumoana just down the road, and the Napier waterfront and CBD are only about 20 minutes away by car. So the property itself is great, and the location is also really handy. Our dog didn't notice but there was also a swing and in the garden and a small trampoline on the deck - which could be very handy for those with young kids.

The property proved perfect to accommodate family members coming at short notice to Hastings for a funeral. The variety of beds and spaces made it very convenient and the main living space and covered verandah with its big table enabled us all to share meals in comfort . The setting near the beach helped us relax during our sad time. Highly recommended.

Fantastic!

I absolutely loved staying here. We came up for the art deco weekend and it was the perfect location. Super happy with the area and the house itself. The property manager was super lovely and helpful. Will definitely stay again😊
