Value for money. Close to amenities. Outdoor eating provided space for visitors to sit and eat as the living area filled. Suggest microwave be lowered for safety reasons. Thank you.

What a great little place and a great idea for a holiday home. The common room in the middle of the two rooms that have 5 needs on each side. The only reason for a 4 star for cleanliness was that the dishes had unwashed food inside the stack of the plates. Otherwise we really enjoyed the place Thank you

This accommodation worked well for our adult family. The units are really well set up, for families and gave everyone their own space. The set up with a communal kitchen and a unit either side gave us all some space. Ideal for two families or in our case six adults. The kitchen had and excellent array of equipment and huge oven. It was a seamless check in and clean at the end. A close walk to Oakura beach.
