A great place to stay that is well equipped, tidy and located close enough to Napier CBD and Marine Parade. The hosts show real care and attention, you are welcomed like a returning friend not just another sale. Highly recommend
Beautiful spot right on the beach. Perfect for walking along the waterfront. Close to to town; shopping, restaurants, cafes and bars. Aquarium across the road. The room itself was clean and tidy and the spa was the perfect way to end the weekend.
Room was very clean, well looked after and well appointed. Spa was great, fantastic view and overall we were very pleased with it. We'd definitely come back! Thanks
We loved our stay here. The apartment was spotless, the view was fabulous. The staff were all very friendly and professional.
The facilities were great. We will definitely be back.
