The perfect vacation

We stayed at this beautiful home with friends over 4 nights and everything was exceptional! The property is stunning and absolute luxury, you feel like you're on holiday the moment you step in, the rooms and layout are spacious and all beautifully set. The garage was a hit with all the games for kids and adults! A short stroll to the beach, and not far to the main town made this a great location with kids and adults to get out and about easily. Every item we needed to cook our own meals, entertain the kids and to relax were all at our fingertips. Thank you so much Sharlene for sharing your heavenly home, we felt sad to leave and are already planning our next stay!

Whangamata standout 5 stars

We have always admired this property and finally booked it for a special birthday with our family. It met every expectation and beyond. Every need was met and the house is so well equipped, especially the kitchen. The quality is of a high standard.nThe bess are very comfortable. The games and activities were an absolute bonus with all the water equipment kayaks and paddle boards included. The grounds are so beautifully kept it truly feels like another country in this mediterranean beauty of a house. Truly worth a stay and we will return. If there were more than 5 stars i would rate it higher. Thank you Sharlene for your great communication with our booking.

well equipped Villa in an amazing location

This Villa was everything we hoped for!! A large space for family and friends of all ages. We especially loved the games and equipment available for our use. The well equipped ranch style kitchen/diner was a popular place for socialising and kids artwork activities. The balcony space was often full of family members relaxing in the sun, but there were also many other communal spaces to chill out in. We loved being only 2 minutes walk from the beach. Altogether one of the best places we have found for a large group of mixed ages.
