The place is designed with a lot of thought. It's fun to be in a place with a pleasant and invested design. The room was clean and it was a quiet and lovely experience. 10 minutes drive from Hahei. incredible place!

Relatively isolated and suitable for those looking for quiet. The insulation between the rooms is not good and you can hear everything - it didn't bother us that much but you have to take it into account. We had a problem with the electrical connections, in the morning they and the refrigerator did not work. The owner of the place found out and replied within about an hour that it was under treatment

Unit was smaller than it looked online. It was a small studio very compact but had everything you need. Comfy bed and pillows. Interior was light. Hosts were lovely.

The unit was not beachfront so little disappointed as stated beachfront in description. The main house faced the estuary but the units were situated behind the main house. No view other than street view . Outside space very limited and shaded. Stated internet but very weak signal. So could not pick up Netflix

The room was exactly as per the description. Accommodation was easy to find, and clear instructions were available inside the accommodation. The bed was very comfortable and I have appreciated how quiet is the place. There was no noise at all during the night. We can see that furnitures and materials have been chosen for their quality, and the room was perfectly clean and cosy/comfy.

I found the rate a bit expensive, especially the cleaning fees (48 NZD) in addition to service fee (50 NZD), whilst I staid for only one night, and left the apartment probably as much as I found it. Considering the rate for the night, it could be included. Also, I found that check out time at 10am is a bit early. Most of the time it is at least 11am. Last thing is that I would have appreciated seeing the owner at least a bit. I like booking with private people because it is the opportunity to meet people while travelling. I find it a bit frustrating not seeing any human at all. But I admit everything was well organized, so except for a human contact, there was no special need to see anyone.

The property is small but really lovely. With only a short walk to the beach, it is well designed - a comfy bed, excellent shower, nice outdoor space with furniture, beach towels and even a spade to use at hot water beach.

We arrived with barbecue food, but couldn’t find the barbecue anywhere. The owners were quick to respond and the manager arrived to sort it out, so it was not a problem in the end.

Very nicely decorated compact, very clean unit with everything you need, including breakfast. Great location and good visitor info folder so easy to find the way to the beach. Nice little courtyard that would be lovely in summer.

Connecting door lets a lot of noise through- luckily our neighbours were not noisy, but I suspect we woke them up when we got up early.

Excellent stay! the hosts thought of everything :) The location is in a quiet neighborhood and felt incredibly safe- the best part was staying right on the water and taking a kayak out to view the bay/ocean side. There was a kitchen with everything you need (except a full oven) and I was really pleased with the comfortable stay. This location is only really accessible with a car, but great value. Thank you to the hosts!

n/a . only would note to travellers there are very few restaurants in the area and there are no shops/foods within walking distance so I would recommend this stay only to those with a car or those who come incredibly prepared with foods.

Property was squeaky clean, modern, comfortable and great location. We had absolutely everything we needed, even milk and cereal. I left my Birkenstocks at the property and John went above and beyond to return them to me. I would 100% reccomend this property to stay. Thanks John!!

Despite the sound proof walls you could hear everything the neighbor in unit 1 is doing. They were not noisy but we felt uncomfortable and were whispering and moved quietly as we didn’t want to disturb them.

Compact yet all a couple needed. Good location. Appreciated the shovel and beach towels.

I would appreciate a ceiling fan / fan as it was a bit stuffy at night (louvres were good but let the mozzies in, so had to close them).

Great facilities and location. Thoroughly enjoyed the unit- it was clean and tidy and the neighbours were friendly. We felt safe staying in the neighbourhood. Great to have access to kayaks!

Nothing negative from us.
