It was an amazing and beautiful place. It was the perfect place for me to get ready for our wedding and we even took advantage of the garden for our first look photos. Very handy to walk to the main Paraparaumu Beach shop area. Our wedding venue was at the Paraparaumu Beach Golf Club and this venue was perfectly located. The owners of the property were amazing to deal with, super helpful, and had the room well setup for us. We were in the Serengeti Unit and it had enough space for my photographer, make-up artist, and hairdresser to help me get ready.

Everything was perfect.

Beautiful large room and four poster bed, huge bathroom. Lovely small kitchenette and continental breakfast items in a walk-in cupboard. Private with own access. Quiet cul-de-sac location. Friendly, helpful host. Good location for walking down to the beach, shops and restaurants. Lovely gardens. Such a shame we didn't have time to make use of it or the pool and hot tub.

Be aware of the need to carry cases up the external stairway for this room.

Great quiet location, easy to find, very handy to the beach, Excellent selection of breakfast cereals, toast, butter, jam and marmalade, orange juice and bottled water. 4 types of tea, drinking chocolate and 2 types of coffee. We stayed in the Serengeti suite and it was beautifully done. There are toys, books, magazines if you need them and a TV. The rooms are large and tastefully decorated.

Can't think of anything. Everything was supplied, more than what we expected.

We stayed in the Serengeti suit, which was beautifully appointed, spacious, and had an African theme. Having a lounge separate from the bed room is very nice. The continental breakfast was provided in the kitchenet in the suite, which was convenient. We could eat to our own time table. The unit was very clean. Having a pool and spa on site was a very nice extra, which we really enjoyed.

This suite was not suitable if you have mobility issues, as it is up quite a steep flight of steps. Also, we were there during a heat wave, and the only cooling was a fan. The windows didn't open up very far to help with cooling.

Beautifully maintained B&B, with great attention to details. We appreciated the electric blanket, the breakfast bar in our room and the little table right outside the room surrounded by lavender, it was the best setting for breakfast in the garden. The property also has a pool and a jacuzzi and it's close to the beach.

The fact that we only booked one night :(

The peacefulness of the location was beyond expectations. Seeing that the hosts had really gone the extra mile by supplying things like very comfortable gowns, full bottles of great shampoo and conditioner, having extra towels available, a great variety of dvds to enjoy etc. the bed was super comfortable and the room was decorated so beautifully, it was the perfect little escape from reality!

The only thing I could possibly fault (and only because I run my own cleaning business) is that I noticed a bit of a build up of dust on the blinds, lamp shades and other random things like switches. It did not bother us at all! It’s just something I notice in every house I walk into out of pure habit.

Breakfast was very good. Yorkshire tea would have been a bonus!😉 The location was handy, being a pleasant stroll to the town. The pool was perfect & Simon , the host , was very friendly and helpful.

A few cushions would have given added comfort and perhaps another easy chair would be a good idea.

The unit was well appointed clean and spotlessly clean. The bed was comfortable and the ambience created was in keeping with a tudor manor. Both the main room and bathroom were spacious. The room was particularly quiet and the proprietor was most accomodating and informative. I would be very happy to book here again when in the area.

Simon, the owner, was attentive but never intrusive. This suited us fully, as we were in NZ to primarily see our Family, especially our Grandchildren. We were able to come and go as we pleased.

It met all our requirements, so nothing to dislike! The only issue was parking, but after a couple of days to get the feel for reversing of out it was fine.

The breakfast was superb - we brought along our little extras, but didn't have to use them. The orange juice supplied was tasty and the selection of different cereals was yummy! The other motel we wanted to stay at was booked out so tried this one and will be defnitely going back.

There was nothing to dislike.
