Millar Road

Beautiful outlook

Lovely house in beautiful setting. Very well equipped and comfortable. Quiet countryside location with fantastic views of ocean as well.

Absolutely nothing. It was perfect.

It’s scenic views, beautifully kept surroundings, comfort, a complete package where you could relax in a quiet serene location of pure bliss.

Beautiful location

🇰🇼 Everything was just perfect. Thank you, Rach and Phillip. The villa has beautiful views and is nicely furnished. It even has a small chimney stocked with firewood, which made the stay feel warm and cozy. The organic breakfast provided was a wonderful and unexpected surprise from Rach and Phillip. You will enjoy the smell of the vineyard and the sound of different birds throughout the day. If you are looking for a place to relax and escape the noise of the world, this is the perfect spot.

Beautiful clean property. 2nd visit and still a lovely experience.

Everything about this property is exceptional. The minute you open up the front door you know you are staying in a very special place. The view from every window is spectacular. The decor is beautiful. The beds are extremely comfortable. Every little detail has been thought of. Our hosts were great. We loved it and wished we could have stayed longer. Hoping to return so we can do it all over again.

Nothing. The only minor issue was it was the time of the year when we could have used a fly spray but we managed well without it.

Great Host and the unit was clean and neat .Would recommend this to others to stay . Appreciate the Host update on keys etc .

Location, accommodation and response from staff

Pretty views over the vineyards. Stylish interiors and design. Refreshing pool. Great base for exploring the region. Gregory (host) very helpful.

We were stunned by the beauty of the location and design of villa 2 at Millar Road. The views and light were spectacular and made even easier to enjoy by rolling doors and beautiful windows and lovely outdoor seating. We loved the quality cotton linens and local breakfast provisions. Our host was attentive to making sure we had a great stay in Hawke’s Bay, which we very much did. We would strongly recommend Millar Road!

Breakfast provisions were wonderful. Everything is very practical and functional. Gregory was very helpful giving tips and reserving a restaurant.

It is a bit further out of town than what we expected. If I had to use the manual coffee grinder every day I would switch to tea:-)

Generous host, gorgeous vineyard setting, luxurious but casual, fresh fruits from the site, easy arranging e-bikes & vineyard tours, lovely farmhouse breakfast & farm dog!

Nothing. It was one of the most perfect places we’ve ever stayed.

Great location and fantastic views. Owner was very helpful and shared solid recommendations

As it near a winery, you can encounter some bugs in the night. If they can add air conditioning , it’ll be a 10/10.

We loved the location. It was quiet but close to the action. The design was comfortable and maximized the beautiful views. The property was clean with small touches throughout that added to the character and the overall experience. Our host, Gregory was responsive, knew the area very well, and consistently checked in to ensure we were comfortable and had everything we needed.

Beautiful location, wonderful views of the vineyard. Beautiful bathrooms and comfortable beds. Lovely hamper on arrival which takes the stress away from a self catering short stay. Great host who responded almost immediately with any enquiry. Spotlessly clean.

Attention to seating is desperately needed. Indoor seating is very uncomfortable when relaxing to enjoy the beautiful views. Two small chairs and a sofa bed which is literally the mattress of the bed itself, its basic, uncomfortable and doesn't look hygienic. I can't see how four people could comfortably relax. The TV is very small compared to todays offerings. Outside the garden seating is tired, Directors Chairs (only two for a property that sleeps at least 4) uncomfortable. Unfortunately at the time we stayed the roof inside and out was covered in birds nests meaning that birds were always constant (flying around) in the outside eating area and the mess that this creates. The owner has tried to manage this but unfortunately their were young birds in the nests so too late to prevent. I must stress these are only minor issues but would prevent me from accepting this as luxury accommodation. The pool water was very cloudy we wouldn't have used it.

Great view, everything we needed was provided

Property needs a bit of maintenance - the front sliding doors were very hard to open and close, and the pool didn't look like the photos on the websbite

We were there for a couple of days and the coffee was only enough for a single day

Every last detail was thought of. Had a very homely feel. Clean, tidy and so peaceful!

Clean n well stocked

Great place with views over Hawks Bay. Superb property worth staying any season of the year.

Not much, everything was as advertised. We enjoyed our stay greatly

Beautiful spot with gorgeous view . The accommodation is spot on.

Gorgeous property and very well furnished. All the amenities provided for a very comfortable stay. Kitchen is well supplied and a very generous breakfast was included. We stayed in Villa 1 which had a cosy fireplace and a beautiful outlook to the vineyard. The villas are separated enough for privacy but also close enough for a big party to book out together. We stayed mid week and didn't have anyone staying in the other villas so we had the whole place and pool to ourselves, it was an amazing stay. Conveniently located to wineries which made for a good base to go wine tasting during the day then relax back at the villa for home cooked dinners and wine by the fire. Would definitely return and highly recommend to others!

Millar Road is magical. The villas are so peaceful and the setting is incredible. I could sit on the back patio all day and watch the view over the vineyard, the ocean and valley beyond.

Great breakfast offering, beautiful location with views to match. Excellent stay

quiet, private and very well presented, excellent communication from owner

Breakfast was a good offering. Nespresso coffee maker would have been perfect

Location good great summer destination to use the pool would be fantastic.

I didn’t realise that they did your beds and cleaned. The coolest thing I found was they set the fire place up again to be used. It’s the little things that count. Highly recommend and we will be back again.

An amazing property away from the hustle and bustle, nested amongst the vines with views out to the ocean. We loved arriving to a stocked fridge so we could cook up an amazing breakfast each day. And cosy nights by the fire. The artwork hanging in the property including NZ artist Martin Poppelwell’s linens and wall art was a lovely touch. Will definitely be back in Summer to use the pool. Thanks for an amazing stay Gregory, your place is something else!

Stunning location. Very quiet. Fire set each day, beds comfortable and yummy provisions supplied.

Amazing retreat in Hawke’s Bay Area - the villas are on a hilltop overlooking the pacific - just stunning location. We stayed in winter and while the days were warm, really enjoyed the wood fire at night. It was a super relaxing and peaceful weekend away, and hope to be able to make a return trip in the summer.

Clean and comfortable and nice view of Hawkes Bay without any frills...wished we would have booked at Craggy Ridge instead.

Fantastic accomodation, great people, superb view. Highly recommend!

We had an amazing two night stay during early spring over here. The Haumoana house is huge and has everything we need. The best thing is the view from every room in this house. Couldn't use the pool however as it was too cold. Overall, a very relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Well appointed villa with quality chattels and furniture. Excellent breakfast supplied. Fabulous location and whole family enjoyed the stay.

These Villas are outstanding. Greg is amazing when you book sending you and email with local recommendations and sorting out the house layout. The villas are furnished to a high standard, everything is thought out from amazing breakfasts, to dressing gowns in bathrooms. If you get a chance definitely book these, we will definitely be back!!

What an amazing house, set in a in a peaceful location with stunning views. From communicating with owners during bookin process and warm, caring communication about local attractions, shops. Loved all the features, treats like the retro record player - with speakers inside and out, great fire place with an abundance of firewood, big open spaces fir the family to relax together and separatly Thank you for the Wine too, delicious

Tucked away in the country side this property offers the most amazing views. The scenery is complimented by the well appointed villas. This is a great place for a luxury family or couple escape and really enjoys everything that Hawkes Bay has to offer.

Exceeded expectations. The host had a welcome basket for us that was a nice touch. Lots of room and had all the household amenities. Really enjoyed the sunrises and the quietness surrounding us.

Great stay overall! Very spacious and comfortable accommodations - perfect for our honeymoon. The pool overlooking the vineyards was beautiful, only wish it was heated so that we could have used it in the winter. This is a self catering place so we didn't meet or see anyone on our trip, but they left some nice ingredients for breakfast and a detailed guide book about the room. There were some bugs in the shower but otherwise quite clean and comfortable. Overall, highly recommend, and imagine it would be especially great to stay in the spring or summer!

Excellent location away from it all. The place had all the right amenities and comforts. The owner had breakfast fixings laid out for our stay including the yummiest homemade jam I've had in a long time. Highly recommend this spot.

Beautiful, peaceful location. Close enough to everything the region has to offer, but far enough away to be quiet and private. Ginny (host) was lovely and the cottage was everything we hoped for. Some really nice touchs with the fire stoked and ready to light each evening when we returned from our adventures, and complementary wine, coffee beans and juice etc. Can't wait to go back.

Great place !!!

A stunning location that is a wonderful place to stay & relax. The views are just incredible.

Cozy villa with astonishing vineyard n ocean view. Sheep n wild rabbits as well. Hot water shortage n some ants on the floor of the bathroom ....but it cant be helped. Maybe.

We had a wonderful stay at Millar Road and highly recommend it. The surroundings of vineyards, grazed by sheep and stunning views of the ocean make this unforgettable. The close proximity to wineries and restaurants just topped it all.

Facilities: Home away from home, Outstanding; Service: Go the extra mile; Cleanliness: Immaculate; Great views
