Hi Jean-Marie - I see that Bookabach rejected your review - probably as you used our names which apparently doesn’t comply with their rules. We loved your feedback thanks, so I wondered if you wouldn’t mind changing “Paul snd Sally” to “the hosts” or similar ? Sorry to be a pain. Kindest Regards.

Fabulous and attentive hosts. Auld Reekie is situated in a great spot in Napier - close to the bustling centre of the city, close to supermarkets and fabulous restaurants as well. The house itself is well appointed with beautifully spacious, comfortable rooms with excellent beds as well. It really feels like a home away from home and is very quiet as well. Highly recommended for an extended stay.

We were away for a foodie weekend in Hawkes Bay and so did a lot of cooking and eating and the kitchen was excellent and spent plenty of time enjoying the deck. Great place and the hosts were great, would definitely recommend.

NOTHING was overlooked in terms of preparing this excellent home for renters such as us. The place is spacious, had been nicely cleaned, and a note together with a fine bottle of wine were left as a welcome. We stayed two full weeks in this wonderfully modernized home and frankly hated to leave. BY FAR, this is the best vacation rental we have ever had.
