What a fantastic place in a quiet rural area. Spacious with a comfortable bed and restful vistas. My only regret is I didn’t factor in more time to sit on the deck and read my book. Leona was an excellent host

Great place! Thanks!

We had a fantastic stay with all we needed at hand. The location was good for as with family in Tauranga and wanting to be away at the same time. Close to Waihi Beach where we enjoyed a couple of meals. Only 5 or so mins from Katikati for any shopping needs or the farmers market
