Apanui House

Very handy location and a well stocked house that had everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Lawns werent mowed on arrival but were done during our stay and rubbish bin was delivered day before we checked out. Would stay again as plenty of room for family and the kids to enjoy

Roomy and affordable near Coastlands

Lots of space for kids, especially for games in the large backyard. A bit far from the beach and town. Clean and spacious house. We missed not having a coffee plunger.

Whakatane

A great, spacious house with very comfortable beds and presented very well. Has generous parking and a big section. The house is on a very busy 80km road and the road noise starts from about 6.30am until late evening. Other than that, a great place to stay.

Lots of space for two couples. Three bedrooms. We lost our wifi for one day for unexplained reason. We had no correspondence prior to our arrival so could not access the locked key box. Fortunately a neighbour assisted us in accessing the home. Dining room and kitchen very spacious.

Do not recommend

Checked in and the house was an absolute mess from the previous guest’s the night before. Unmade beds, used towels, bins full, floor was horrendous. Cleaner eventually came so our check in time was later then it should have been. It still wasn’t up to cleaning standards. Barely vacuumed and didn't mop, blood stained blanket in one room, the list could go on. The house has potential but unfortunately its like theres no care in the world. Disappointed with our stay. 1/10 do not recommend.
