House is 100% beautiful! Perfect for our little get away with friends. Amazing view of the sunset, afternoon walk on the beach, dinner out on the deck with the fire going. Even in this cold June weather, the house was super warm.

"Stunning!"

10.0

Not only was the location stunning, the accommodation was exceptional. Extremely clean & very beautifully decorated. A very relaxing evening spent watching the sunset opposite was a fabulous way to end our stay on the North Island.

There was nothing we disliked about this property, apart from the fact that we could only spend one night there!

"Peaceful, relaxing, comfortable home away from home"

10.0

Stunning spot right on the water. So quiet and peaceful, a fantastic place to unwind and relax. Amazing little touches like home baking on arrival and nearly everything could need for a comfortable stay. Beds were super comfy with lots of pillow choices which u appreciated. Cute little kiwi beach town vibe. Would definitely book again!
