Homely & welcoming with plenty of space. The host was incredibly good at communicating and was super generous in offers to share the abundance of fruit in the classic kiwi backyard and the games on offer for easy indoor and outdoor family entertainment. Well appointed & clean. Fantastic stay

The kids enjoyed the garden, we explored by kayak, my dad took advantage of the bike (he had problems walking, the bike saved his day) and my mum won all the Rummikub games! In a word : we all had a nice stay.
The place is close to the city and the water, with all the amenities you need.

A great place not far from the town centre, perfect for a family, we had a toddler so having a large fenced section was great. Had everything you need and host was great.
Lovely home with a great big yard. Plently of space. Only downfall for me was the couches, i work alot so really like to relax back at the end of a busy day
The house is definitely a home from home, with everything you need to have a family holiday and make wonderful memories. It is very well equipped inside and out and is spotlessly clean. We're looking forward to going back again.
We had a wonderful stay at this property just few minutes from the beach. The house was spacious, clean, and had a large backyard that the kids absolutely loved. It features three comfortable rooms, plenty of board games for family fun, and a great deck to relax on. The communication with the Tracy was excellent, and the check-in process was seamless. The photos on the website don’t do the property justice – it’s even nicer in person! With a couple of beautiful beaches nearby and supermarkets conveniently close, this place is perfectly located for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway. Highly recommend! will comeback next year!
Nice and simple holiday bach. Had everything we needed available. Good size backyard the kids loved. Added bonus of being able to use bikes in shed that my daughter loved. Had kayaks available as well but too busy to get these out this visit! Can walk to main part of town and wharf. Tracy the host was great at communicating with us as well. Any tech requiring people should note no wifi available and just Freeview tv.
