Breakfast was very good with a choice of cereals etc
Would have liked an electric blanket.
Lovely hosts who ensured we had all we needed, great communication several days before and through out our stay. Kids were so comfortable to leave their beds, and an access to a piano was a bonus! The unit was very clean to standard/so warm/Cozy, had everything our family of 5 needed including breakfast treats. Our daughter celebrated her 17th birthday and just relaxed. I’m an OCD in cleaning - but most I did was relax and check the kids did not make a mess! 😀Location was quiet -not that far to drive to hot pools and shopping malls! Most of all was having fairies 🧚 to do the rest of the cleaning needed after we left! Thank you Clare & Kayla!
Would have been handy to have a washing machine/dryerI available as we went to the hot pools- however saw a laundromat that could be accessible if really really needed.😀
Beautiful peaceful location and awesome hosts.
The homely feel was perfect for our first family get away. Put us at ease.
Super cosy place, we stayed there for one night and felt at home. Hosts provide good breakfast
Great communication from the hosts. Spacious, clean, bed was wonderful and kitchen amenities , although not used were great. Have stayed twice and booked a third time.

Everything was perfect and well thought of.
Nothing to not like
The hosts went out of their way to make sure we felt welcome and had all we needed to make this a very pleasant stay. The unusually spacious and well-appointed apartment looks out onto a delightful, private garden. A swimming pool has pride-of-place in the garden and had the weather been better (we hit a couple of particularly wet and windy autumn days), we would have been tempted to have a dip! The compact kitchen had everthing needed for self-catering and we enjoyed eating at the large table. While there were only the two of us staying on this occasion, we could see that the apartment would be ideal for a larger family group. "Feel at Home" is well named; we really did feel at home, and hope to return when we next need to be in Tauranga.

Everything the place was huge i felt like I was in our own house the hosts have gone above and beyond having fresh fruit yoghurt loaf of bread and many other things for us on arrival amazing value for money aswell I would 100% stay here again
Nothing it was perfect
Property was like a home from home. Bed and pillows very comfortable! Clare & Shawn were very friendly and hospitable and kindly let us use the washing machine too! Continental breakfast was a bonus - thank you very much!
Nothing!
The host was welcoming, communicative, and friendly. There wasn't too much noise transfer, despite being downstairs below the host's home. It was warm and well-equipped.
Nice quiet location, minutes drive from the nearest supermarket, Starbucks, petrol station etc. It has everything you needed, Netflix etc. The breakfast and fruit supplies were great.
Beautiful property and garden, with very welcoming hosts. Nothing was too much for them, and they left us a beautiful farewell card on morning of departure. Highly recommended!
Clare and Shawn are really nice people, very polite and accommodating. The apartment is fully equipped, making it perfect for a longer stay, including a beautifully designed outdoor area. Parking is possible in front of the house.
Nothing is missing
Claire and Shawn are the ultimate hosts, ensuring we were comfortable and had everything we needed. A lovely property with a beautiful garden and pool. It’s close to many things to see and do around Tauranga.
Parking is a little bit tight! But we worked around it.
A quiet great place to stay close to town. We stayed for three nights and was very convenient, hosts were really thoughtful of our needs.
Perfect spot for us on a whistle-stop NZ tour with our daughter. We felt very welcomed. A nice quiet retreat after a long drive, and a refreshing pool after a long run.
Pool was awesome, lovely & quiet, unit has everything you would need for your stay. Highly recommend this place 😃
Hosts were lovely, the place was just like home. It was great.
Queen bed was a little hard for our liking.
Fabulous hosts, so friendly. Really appreciated the breakfast provisions!
No full length mirror!
Clare and Shawn could not have been more welcoming, full of information regarding both their property and the town. Comfortable beds, delicious breakfast supplies, huge bowl of fresh fruit, free parking. All good!
Shawn and Clare were amazing hosts. So very kind, friendly and helpful. Very comfortable stay with everything we needed including all the basic food for breakfast every day. We even got to pick veges and herbs from the garden! Grandaughter really enjoyed the pool.
Really beautiful home with lots of space and comfort. Clare and Shawn are also really welcoming.
“ The host is enthusiastic, friendly, and easygoing. The house is clean and tidy.”
Good location, comfortable bed, spacious room, friendly host. Barista-style coffee machine. There's a BBQ (we only stayed for a day, so we didn't have time to use it). The pool is right outside the door. Everything’s amazing. We’ll definitely comeback (hopefully without the in-law next time😂)
This is just an improvement idea: maybe a window screen from Bunnings or Mitre 10. When we opened the window, a grasshopper and a springtail both decided to let themselves in. Had to kick them out myself. 😂We live in rural area and know they’re normal and harmless, but other guests might not know that. Window screen will solve the problem.
The relaxed at home feel and comfortability.
Shower head was not tight. Didn’t stay up while showering.
This place was wonderful! Breakfast and kitchen supplies were great, beds were really comfortable and location was perfect for us. Host was very friendly and accommodating.
fantastic space, well set up and excellent facilities.

This wonderful BnB in Tauranga felt just like home. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, and the breakfast was delicious with plenty of options. The place was perfect for families, offering lots of board games for kids. Everything was clean and tidy, and we had all the amenities we needed. The extra bed clothes were a blessing on cold winter nights, keeping us warm and cozy. Was amazing have cereal, bread, cookies, milk, yuz, coffee, tea, and fruits for the kids. Highly recommend for a comfortable and family-friendly stay!
Nothing bad
Breakfast was great, a good amount of variety and plentiful. Information what you could do in the area, places to eat etc, was excellent and what the hosts had available to use was awesome , not that we had time to take them up with that offer.
Thank you for another very comfortable stay
Lovely hosts. The heat pump was on and so were the lights, it was so nice coming in from the cold! The apartment is spacious and cozy, with lovely little touches like the heater in the bathroom. Excellent location too, and I will happily stay again!
It really was a home away from home. This home is in a beautiful location, amongst a gorgeous garden with a pool view and quiet peaceful surroundings . The home is well furnished and thoughtfully decorated. The home was immaculate in cleanliness. Amazing hosts
Nothing, it was perfect.
It really was just like home with everything you could need. Very friendly and helpful hosts. Thanks Shawn and Clare.

It was our second stay here and it just assured us why we have loved this place at first sight. Great place to chill out. Very comfortable, well equipped with lovely garden. We will be back!
Host was really nice and understanding. They listen to what we requested and agreed generously. Would recommend them and would like to stay at their accommodation again whenever we visit Tauranga. Thank you for being such an exceptional.host Shawn and Clare.

I can’t say that I didn’t like something, it was just perfect for me and my family!
Location was great. Owner was extremely helpful and friendly. Rooms including bedroom, lounge and kitchen were spacious, comfortable and extremely well equipped. The bed in the lounge room was useful. There was plenty of storage The pantry was well stocked including biscuits and fresh bread, milk and fruit. We loved the patio and pool (although we didn't use it).
Nothing. Loved everything.

We had such a peaceful and enjoyable stay. Loved the swimming pool during the hot days. Couldn’t wish for better hosts who treated us like family 😊
This house is perfect, the area is stunning, the garden and fresh veggies, pool and a beautiful terrace with a bbq. Absolutely amazing stay - the hosts are super welcoming. I wish we could stay longer here!
nothing!
It was a very quiet leafy suburban neighbourhood. A dip in the swimming pool was welcome and relaxing. Breakfast provisions were excellent. Thanks for the Vegemite! Love your garden!
There was no power point near the mirror near the hand basin. Otherwise, all good.
We had a great stay at Feel at Home. The kids loved the pool and the garden setting was lovely. The bnb was comfortable and had everything we needed.
The advertising on the site was misleading. Advertised as a 2 bedroom but the second bedroom wasn't available.
Beautiful pool, garden and property. Friendly hosts and generous breakfast goods.
Nothing.
Well set up unit, comfortable beds, very clean, friendly hosts, idyllic garden.
This beautiful wee place was great for us, as we were there for a wedding. Great location and super friendly hosts. Checked we had plenty of supplies while we were there. Lovely garden and a chance to use the pool on these hot sticky day. Would highly recommend this hidden treasure
Nothing, it was just perfect for what we wanted
Attention to detail, breakfast supplies.
Shawn is a great host, checking in each day to make sure we had everything we needed, which we did.
Very minor, but there wasn't a container for food scraps in the kitchen. It was just outside, though a pain to have to take teabags out each time.
Lovely clean home with plenty of space. Really comfortable beds and great breakfast. Hosts were very welcoming
Nothing
The breakfast was perfectly adequate and also we were later asked if we needed more bread and fruit for example. Impressed by this thoughtfulness. The location was fine and the environment beautiful. Shawn and Clare were warm, friendly and easy to talk to. The hosts went the extra mile to have us feel at home!
Perhaps the microwave could be more easily reached!
Our Hosts, Shawn and Clair were very gracious in their Rugby World Cup victory, but putting rugby aside, felt very much at home and welcome. Everything we needed was supplied.
Can’t fault this property
Loved the large spacious rooms, Graf to have a big dinning table and lovely outside view

THey place was beautifuly presented. Having food for breakfast already there was amazing. The hosts were so friendly. The beds were great and this is often not the case. THe neighbourhood was lovely and the weather was great while we were there.

Location is quiet and gardens were lovely.?
Nothing
The location is suburban and a home-away-from-home, with enough space for everyone to spread out and relax. Unfortunately one of my kids was sick, so rather than exploring the area the husband and kids stayed in and played boardgames while I worked, but it was a relaxing and restful place to stay.
Nothing could have been better. Was a lovely stay and we hope to return in the summer.
Very good
it was very homey. very safe and quiet place. loved the soft and thick carpet. the place also had all we needed including breakfast.

spacious, all the facilities one could want, well provisioned with kitchen gear and food. light switches where you expect to find them. Easy to stay there.
I am a tall person. The couch is almost impossible to get out of, so low down.
Host Shawn was very friendly and responsive. The guest Handbook in the unit was very helpful in terms of where to eat and what to see around Tauranga. The breakfast provided was all good, including milk, cereals, yogurts, spread, fruits, coffee and tea and etc.. It really feels like home. My 18 months old enjoy walking around and exploring the house.

As a solo traveler for work for the week, it was a lovely quiet spot and so spacious for my stay. Well supplied with everything to be self sufficient for the week and with generous continental breakfast provisions. Such a comfortable bed too, I had the best sleeps!
No issues at all with staying here. Have recommended to others.
