Guest Reviews
- Julie (10/5): - Slick operation, very professional.
- Sebastien (10/5): -
- Andrew (7/5): -
- weerasinghe (9/5): - Friendly Staff and Nice clean rooms. I felt like home.
- Michael (10/5): Brad was very welcoming, and the included breakfast as great with homemade bread and fresh eggs. -
- Daniel (8/5): Nice place - This is a place worth recommending, especially for those who appreciate a warm, homely atmosphere. The breakfast is good, although it’s not as varied or extensive as what you would typically find in larger hotels.
The overall feeling is friendly and informal, which for some guests will be a big advantage, while others might see it as a slight lack of comfort. It’s important to note that this is essentially a private house with rooms available for guests, so you don’t have complete privacy like in a standard hotel setting.
If you’re looking for a cozy, home-like stay and don’t mind a more shared environment, this place can be a great choice.
- Ruben (10/5): Great time and comfortable - People,clean,where is located,really good place Everything was really nice
- Ben Jari (10/5): Feel-good Place with nice hosts:) - Brad and Fujiku are very friendly and helpful! The place is lovingly furnished and clean. Toast with eggs was very delicious for breakfast and it‘s not far to the inner city and other attractions like Mount Taranaki by car.
- La-Toya (10/5): -
- Weir (9/5): Excellent, will certainly use again. - Hospitable, neat, clean; interesting host; great bibbe/ atmos
- Harry (8/5): If you're looking for stunning mountain views and an old school bnb experience, this is the place! - Brad and Fujino were phenomenal, they run a brilliant old school bed and breakfast with stunning views, beautiful clean curated room, Brad made eggs on toast from their chickens in the backyard and I enjoyed every minute of my stay, highly recommend. There were 3 lovely cats that were great, but if you were allergic this might have been a shock as even one ended up in my room at one point when I went to take a shower.
- Kaye and Peter Manning (7/5): Suitable for a short stay with great eggs for breakfast! - Breakfast was fine , host helpful , making the most of what the venue offered. Found the bedroom too small, would be better with another toilet in the house.

We had beautiful home made toast with lovely eggs from his hens, a great night's sleep and fantastic shower in the morning to start our day.🤗 The only thing we didn't like was the weather, but the host couldn't help that.
- Sarah (10/5): Cosy B&B that feels like visiting friends - Awesome hosts with a very positive energy, super clean rooms, lovely cats, homely atmosphere, great views, quiet neighborhood, good breakfast and the possibility to make yourself at home (make tea, leave something in the fridge etc.) Sharing the bathroom with others can be tricky but actually worked out really well!
- Doreen (10/5): -
- Emma (10/5): Absolutely perfect! - The B&B is absolutely amazing. We stayed here for 3 nights and loved the accommodation. Brad is a very nice host and a nice person to chat with. He bakes delicious bread.

The hosts are both very kind and welcoming, they even allowed me to prepare my own food in their kitchen. The breakfast that prepared by Brad was simple yet delicious, and I personally like the homemade bread very much. Sad that I didn’t get to enjoyed the view due to the weather :( I enjoyed my stay at Brad and Fujiko’s place very much and would definitely recommend to others as well !

- Brian and Cindy (8/5): -
- Andrew (10/5): Very enjoyable!👍🏻😊 - Nice property. Brad was a great host! Nothing.
- Beatriz (10/5): A place in heaven. - The best part is...EVERYTHING. The location, the garden, the layout of the accommodation, the spacious room, and the super comfortable beds. Brad makes a delicious breakfast, especially the eggs from his chickens, which thrive in the tranquility and relaxation of that environment, and the bread! Brad is a man who enjoys life's simple pleasures, and that's precisely what he conveys at all times. Staying in Havelock is choosing rest, tranquility, a pause, not thinking about anything, just existing and enjoying the surroundings. I feel very fortunate to have chosen this place and to have met Brad; he´s been very inspiring.

- Malcolm (8/5): Very enjoyable, enjoyed breakfast chats with Brad who went above and beyond on everything. - Fine Cats in the house caused me a problem as I have a cat allergy - owners respond well by providing me with antihistamine tablets that did the job.

- Vanessa (10/5): Fantastic - definitely going back. - The breakfast was wonderful and it was so good just getting up and sitting down to a cooked breakfast. It made the erst of the day so much better. The house was well laid out and clean and very comfortable. The hosts were wonderful. I can't remember if the advert shows that there is a set of stairs to get to the house. Not a problem for most people but good for people to know so if they can't do stairs they know to go elsewhere.
- Veenendaalisabelle (9/5): Superb - Great place and lovely staff.
- Keren (9/5): Superb - Brad and Fujiko were terrific hosts, and 16 Havelock was a lovely home away from home while visiting family in New Plymouth. Breakfast was delicious, with Brad baking fresh bread and cooking eggs from their backyard chickens each morning. It was also a nice time to meet the various other guests. I stayed in a single room, which was perfect for a solo traveller. A highlight was the spectacular views of Mt Taranaki and the ocean from the lounge room and deck.
- Ray (9/5): Would highly recommend New Plymouth and the B&B to anyone. How could you not love the granduer of trlhe Taranaki!! - Perfectly located with glorious views to Mt Taranaki. Short trip into town, close to beaches and walks. We couldn’t have asked for more at the end of our North Island trip. Brad was an excellent host with a down to earth, live and let live nature. We totally enjoyed our stay and were kind of sad to leave in the end!! Absolutely nothing!!
