Short comings
The property manager did not reply to me asking for an early check in. The shower was hanging on the wall and the tv remote for free view was missing. One bed had a lolly wrapper in it.

Gorgeous spot
Great bach with plenty of room for our 5 and good kitchen. Lovely views and deck and so handy to the beach for sunset walks. Lovely base to explore this quiet area. A little too close to road meant ear plugs needed. Another heater needed for bedrooms in winter.

House was amazing. Everything you needed for a stay away. Amenities were on point, right down to even having a coffee machine, air fryer and a bottle of milk in the fridge. AMAZING. Communication was fluid and only a txt away. Definitely recommend this place to all. Felt like a home away from home.

Really enjoyed our stay
Lovely place to stay, amazing views of the hokianga harbour, fantastic sunsets, great area, friendly locals, the place had everything we needed, we were all comfortable, unable to connect to wifi or get freeview going, but the property manager refunded us some money towards personal data. Only downfall for us, was that even though the property is pet friendly, its not fenced so we couldnt allow our fur baby to freely be outside and just relax, with the main road just below a worry, however great areas across the road for walks and the beach.

Not a bad place to be
We arrived at our check-in time unfortunately the guests from the previous night were still there so had to wait while they packed up. Was a little put out by this because no cleaner had gone through before we got there and we had to do dishes, and a general clean up before we could settle in. It's a wonderful place to relax and spend time with the family. Would like to stay again in future but would have to make sure someone had gone through the house before we turn up.
