Beautiful home in a spectacular location

We were an extended family group (from grandparents down to grandkids), in Whangamata for a family wedding. We wish we'd had longer than the weekend to stay and enjoy this beautiful property. The location is perfect, close to both beach and shops, and the layout and facilities made it a very enjoyable stay.
