Allan and his family were excellent guests who left the property so clan and tidy . Communication was great and we would happily have them return anytime in the future.
Thanks so much!
From start to finish this has been a fabulous booking. The hosts communication was spot on and made me feel comfortable to ask any questions. The house was perfect for our needs as a family, great location for exploring Mount Maunganui and other areas a bit further afield a bonus with the shopping centre just down the road too. And as said in the listing the beach is 2 mins away and what a beach, (we love a sunset/sunrise photo). Would recommend this lovely house and hosts to yone looking to spend time.in this area. Many thanks.for helping make this trip one to remember.
Really nice place, great location close to all surrounding areas, would definitely recommend.

This 4 bedroom house is a perfect base for a stay in Mount Manganui. Very comfortable home, with all the facilities we needed. 5 minute walk from the beach
Great stay at the Korowai Beach House. Close to the beach and Bay Fair. Good communication with owners, easy check in and checkout. comfortable and plenty of room for our group of 4. Would recommend and visit again.
The house is great for groups. We appreciated having a place to lock our bikes and we loved it was close to the beach. It has everything you need. We will go back again for sure.

Chrissy and her group were great guests ,who communicated well and left our house immaculate . Would be happy to host them again at any time in the future.
Great location, the house was ideal for myself and three friends who were in town for a sports event at the nearby arena. The house had everything that we needed and we enjoyed a few drinks in the afternoon sun on the deck, thanks.

Amanda and her group were wonderful guests who communicated well and left the house immaculately clean . We recommend them highly and would welcome them back at any time in the future. Thanks so much !
Had a relaxing 5 night stay at this private, sunny, warm and spacious home.
Plenty of room for our family of 4. Enjoyed the outdoor deck when it wasnt raining.
2 min drive to Bayfair, coffee a 2 min walk and the beach just around the corner at the end of the main road.
We had a fantastic stay! Chris and Greg were great to deal with—friendly and helpful throughout. The house was well presented, in a great location, and had everything we needed. Instructions were clear, making it very easy to access the property. The fun selection of games was a great touch and perfect for the whole family. Highly recommend and will certainly check availability in future when we next visit the Mount!
An excellent sized house with four bedrooms, within a short walk of the beach and also Bayfair shopping centre, driveway and gate for secure parking and a nice decked area with bbq. Nice and clean throughout and we enjoyed our stay! Thanks guys for accommodating us! Chad Leah and family

Chad and his family were excellent guests who communicated really well with us . They respected all the house rules and we would happily have them return again any time. Highly recommend them to other hosts, Thanks!
Safe travels .
We needed a 4 bedroom house, position was close to beach for morning walks and coffee at George’s a much closer cafe nearby as well. In the mall, close by, was an excellent Vietnamese restaurant. Only 1 bathroom but it worked for us, only negative was we paid for sheets that were awful quality and polyester fabric, they had pills on them due to age and poor quality. I advise you to take your own, but we were flying in so paid the extra for them, one person took their own. House was close to Stadium where we were attending an event for 9 days. We left the house clean and tidy and were respectful tenants..

Thank you for your review .We thought we may get a comment about linen as this group earlier had asked about thread counts and quality . In over 12 years of hosting we have not ever had any complaints about our linen we supply as an option.
This group obviously enjoyed our fantastic location.
Our only negative was that they put the wrong key in the lock box then failed to lock it leaving the house unsecure.
This place served all our purposes - close to beach, great use of space and had everything we needed but super close to Bayfair and takeaways. Very tidy and easy to keep that way.
