The Sands

Close to park. Ocean view

Very rude reception. We had requested in writing 2 beds. 4 months ago. Says did not get message. Showed him printed proof. Blunt Denial. No apology. Booked out can't do anything. Not good enough. Would like to give 0 stars

The reception staff were very welcoming. Most helpful. The apartment was large and well equipped. Convenient for beach

A few instructions would have been useful. Couldn’t find any for dishwasher and couldn’t get it to work. Honestly that’s the only thing.

Great location, well equipped kitchen, washing machine, dryer was handy. Safe and secure car park and I lovely view

Carpets are filthy, shower leaks over the bathroom floor, rooms are not serviced and it is not advertised, I had to wash and dry towels due to needing them to shower and mop up the floor. Bed is very uncomfortable and the bedding is to small so it doesn't cover properly. Plug doesnt hold water in the sink, door to deck is very difficult to lock. For almost $300 per night I expected better

Beautiful Location with great views of the beach. Very pleasant to watch the sunset from the balcony, good and allocated car parking slots. Well furnished and equipped kitchen. Clean and fresh linens. Spacious bedrooms and living areas. Well maintained ensuite and bathrooms. Easy check in and check out. Neville the property manager was helpful and available for any troubleshooting or queries.

The Aircon was playing up a bit, had to switch on and off the main switch which was next to the unit in the balcony, to get the right ambient temperature. The interiors can get very warm on a sunny day and if the aircon is not getting you the right cool temperature then it can be uncomfortable..

Fantastic location across the road from the beach. Great deck out the front.

The manager Mr Neville Smith was extremely helpful and cooperative one of the best host we experienced in new zealand. . The place is wonderful with beautiful view of beach.

Great location
