Lovely Accommodation

We really enjoyed our stay. Accommodation was amazing, host communication was excellent. Beautiful deck to enjoy our morning coffee on, and a quick walk to the beach for the kids.

The cottage was perfect for our overnight needs. The kitchen was modern, clean and well-stocked. The bedrooms were comfortable and we loved eating a home-cooked meal on the deck. The night bugs were out when the sun went down so we didn’t spend time on the porch after dinner. The water views were lovely - we just wish we had more time to swim! The owner was in contact quickly with lots of useful information. The property is in a neighborhood that is fairly remote. We stopped in Kawhia for dinner supplies. I would recommend this cottage for a peaceful stay with beautiful views.

The home was very well setup with a brand new kitchen and freshly painted interior. Perfect for our needs. The home owners were very friendly and easy to deal with and we will certainly look for this property in the future.

Beautiful bach

Spacious, bright and clean, and quite luxurious! We loved it! The property manager was quick to reply and generous with allowing early entry to enable my daughter to have a zoom meeting. Lovely views and a great deck. Grateful for the aircon. It was perfect. Wed love to stay again!

Almost There

There are many positives about this property, such as new appliances & fixtures, clean & comfortable bed, nice view of the inlet & dunes. But, there was a disagreeable odor about the place that emanated from the utility room/foyer. Perhaps a sour mop? Trash? Once I closed off that section of the house and aired the place out, it was better. And...then there were the bugs. Many different kinds of insects and spiders. The cockroach in the sugar bowl was the kicker. So, keep working on it, you are almost there!

Nice view of the black sand dune

Just as advertised. As simple as that. We arrived on a nice sunny day and even though the weather became overcast then wet at times, we did not let that affect us as we know the NZ forests tend to become alive in such conditions. Thanks for letting us be part of this.

Disliked: Communication

Excellent. Hilight the Code to get in!!!

Excellent view. Clean & Tidy. Driveway is unsafe and needs to be fixed. No communication with Manager. Lucky we took photocopy of email or we would not have got in! Too hard to find the Code on the email. This need to be highligthed!!!
