Family reunion

Excellent value for price and perfect location for us. Kitchen well appointed and worked well for a large crowd. Some of the bedding is a little tired but did the job. Great to find some toys to play with and the boogie boards were a lovely surprise. Would definitely stay again

wedding stay

Lovely and clean and close walk to beach. Really enjoyed our stay. Very quiet area. We were lucky with the weather being fine on the wedding day but a wee drizzly next day. Wifi would be a great compliment to this property if you were to chose to stay over winter.

Great location and home

We enjoyed our 2 night stay. Great location, communication from the owner and the house is really spacious and clean. We liked the secure garden which means our 2 girls could play outside safely. The lack of wifi was ok for our short stay but it could be something which can be looked at in the future in particular if you are stuck inside due to the bad weather (which seems to become the norm more and more 🙃).

Great family accommodation

Just perfect for an extended weekend, with two small families (four pre-schoolers) - so handy having the bath, the drive-in garage, plenty of space, a fenced in yard, covered deck area, breakfast bar and high chair. The place is a really good size to have family over for a meal, with the indoor and outdoor dining areas, and the BBQ. We really appreciated the air-con during the humid weather too!! Had everything we needed, and the host is great to communicate with.

Okay

Big beautiful house for our short stay. Nice facilities - bathroom, laundry, kitchen. The house was relatively clean however there was an ant infestation throughout parts of the house. Would be helpful to have basic kitchen items like sugar, coffee and cooking oil.

Why they chose this property

My husband and I Honeymooned in Whitianga. We loved the area and all it has to offer. When we got the chance to buy our Holiday home we didn't hesitate. Still love the area as it has changed for the better, has more things to see and do.

What makes this property unique

Quiet cul-de-sac. 2 minute walk to very safe beach.
