A lovely home away from home

It was a lovely place in a prime location. As a family we felt right at home, enjoying the ocean view from the lounge. With the park and beach near, it made life so much easier with both babies and a child. Hope to visit again soon.

Great location !

Great location being right across from the beach and park, shops not too far away aswel. Host was accommodating with giving us late check out aswel, the only thing I could comment on was furniture is pretty out dated, would suit with more modern day stuff but you can tell slowly but surely its getting there, will definitely stay again in future.

This is such a typical kiwi bach. Excellant views. Really functional not flashy but they have thought of everything Super close to beach access. Walking distance to surf club and Flat White Cafe. Heaps of cutlery plates etc. Could use a new frypan. Great parking for all.
