All about the views
Cosy house in suburbs of Whanganui. Elevated beach views which also means lots of wind. The spa was wonderful. To access beach you can walk down the road and and along sheltered path behind beach. Big adventure playground at Castlecliff beach.

Nice house, however was dissapointed that it was not as advertised/ shown in the photo's e.g they had been taken years ago and everything was dated. House wasnt cleaned to a high standard e.g dusty, bottle top and peanuts left scattered throughout lounge, showerhead needed cleaning etc. Golf balls not supplied, as stated they would be for driving range, double garage was stated however only half could be used as outdoor furniture took up rest. Living room furniture wasnt as in photos, armchair was broken. Kitchen sink tap was impossible to move between sinks. Disappointed that there was no beach access, although view was impressive! Lots of lights throughout house not working. As noted, clearly house needs alot of maintenance for the price charged but we still enjoyed the stay.
