Good communication. Lovely beachfront setting and clean modern studio. Pity about the weather but was very comforting having a dry roof over our heads.

Hinterland Retreat. Coastal glamping cabin minutes from the surf.
Iconic Wainui Beach a 100m stroll. Relax in Tropical type surroundings.
Beautiful surroundings. Not only does the property have off street parking but I got my own carport to use. Great hosts that were very helpful. Great photos on the walls taken by their son. As a photographer myself, staying there for a four day photoshoot I really liked that. I definately recommend ...
