WOW! 5 Stars on everything!

This place was amazing. We loved the view of the volcano and the cleanliness of the accommodations. The host was spectacular. We needed to wash some of our clothes and the host offered to wash them for us. I would definitely recommend this place and wished we could’ve stayed longer.

Outstanding Hospitality

We had a whirlwind trip to Hawera for the Garden Festival. Kelly and Christina’s home was a not only in the perfect location, but it could have been an entrant in the garden festival, a beautiful setting, stunning home. Clean and welcoming! The attention to detail was next level with little treats available to top it off ! Can’t recommend highly enough !

MacArthur Park

Our decision to get away to Hawera was made late, but we booked and were confirmed in just minutes. I thought the House seemed a very good deal on paper, but upon arrival it just got even better. Christina and Kelly were very welcoming and friendly, they showed us around and made sure we had everything we needed. The house is beautiful and very well kept, very clean, quiet, comfortable and warm. Easy parking as well. The super king size bed is very comfortable. Plenty of snacks and food available if you need it. Ten out of ten experience and a very comfortable couple of nights.

Perfect stay - wish we'd stayed longer

Everything about this stay was lovely. The beds were comfortable, it was easy to find, location was convenient for us, property was gorgeous, views were stunning, quiet area, and PHENOMENAL (can't underscore that enough) hosts. They were so welcoming, kind, and respectful. They shared their property and sheep with us and let us feed them bread, but gave us privacy as well. It was perfect. We truly wish we didn't have somewhere else to be the next night so we could stay longer.

Great location, great house, great hosts

We stayed in Hawera on our way to Wellington. The hosts were great, the house clean and fully accommodated for us to have a great rest. It was such a great, classic farm house that lifted our spirits after staying in motels.

We enjoyed our one night stay. Unfortunately the weather didn't let us get a good look at the mountain, but that's obviously outside the hosts' control.
