Ohope Heights

Location and view

The delight space with everything to make you comfortable

I didn't stay longer !

Great location. Lovely touches from the owners to make it feel homely.

Driveway is very steep and made me a bit nervous at first but I got the hang of it and it was fine

The views were stunning and our host (Tony) was very friendly and great!

Very well equipped. Great communication. Beautiful spot

Such a well appointed, well equipped and beautiful spot to come stay. The hosts were amazing and the extra touches were well appreciated. Can't fault it.

The view of the ocean, White Island and Whale Island. Proximity to cafes and the beach. A lovely sunny aspect enjoyed from a balcony.

All good

Fantastic views with White Island in the distance, close to restaurant and beach, well equipped

The drive is very steep and it is difficult to walk on in the dark to go to the restaurant. A little bit of noise from the attached house due to thin walls. The owner did advise about the drive and noise in the property information manual, which is in the unit.

Location was great with lovely sea views

Tony and Linda were fabulous hosts. The extra touches, like the fruit bowl were unexpected. Very comfy beds and late check out.

Well equipped unit with everything you need. Owners have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable. Lovely sea views.

Location was perfect and the accommodation was excellent. Little extras in the appartment were appreciated.

Fantastic view. Located close to cafes and beach. Lovely balcony to relax on and enjoy amazing view of beach.

Driveway is exceptionally steep.

Fantastic hosts, well equipped, beautiful views! Would stay again.

It was a fantastic location and beautiful accommodation. Loved to relax with the sounds of the ocean.

Nothing comes to mind

Everything! Incredible view, lovely art, tasty treats…. Just as welcoming and comfortable as could be!

The driveway is a bit steep, but completely worth it!

Space, location, view, this place has it all

Such a beautiful property with everything needed

Great location beautiful views

We enjoyed a comfortable stay with a great view. Surprisingly, there were lots of little thoughtful touches from the owners: homemade biscuits, fruits, chocolates, Antipodes water... which made us feel very well looked after. Unfortunately we could not stay long as we had to dash back to Auckland. We would love to come back and enjoy the proximity of the wild beach as well as a range of restaurants, cafes and bars close by.

An absolutely gorgeous spot in Ohope, with amazing, comfortable bedrooms and a beautiful view over the beach. Really friendly hosts who were informative, helpful and replied quickly. Will definitely stay again!

Up quite a steep drive, but was fully communicated from the hosts, so we knew what to expect!

Perfect location with the most amazing view. The property exceeded all our expectations, it had everything and more that we needed.

There was nothing we didn’t like. I know some people didn’t like the driveway but this was clearly described in all correspondence

Amazing sea view, room and host.

Nothing

Amazing views and very comfortable bed. Clean linens and great breakfast. Felt at home !

Beautiful location atop of Ohope Heights with gorgeous views!! Fabulous patio area in front of unit. Spacious for 2 people: 2 bedrooms + bathroom + living room + patio area Cookies, fresh fruit available, coffee and tea upon arrival. Delicious breakfast including pastries, croissants, bread, preserves, yogurt, fresh fruit, orange juice, chocolate milk. Very comfortable bed with lots of pillows. Very clean! Kitchen well-stocked. We were here one night; 4:30pm - 10am.

- Driveway is beyond ‘very steep’. It’s dangerous if unfamiliar. - House was NOT at the top of driveway as mentioned in the instructions…it is first one to the left. - House is not brown as mentioned in the instructions…it is beige or taupe so we didn’t know which one it was. - No visible address. We saw 32A at top of driveway, but not 32B as mentioned in the instructions - ‘Ohope Heights’ posted sign was heavily sun faded and was at ground level rather than eye level, so we couldn’t initially see it. As I approached this incredibly steep and long driveway, I put my car in low gear and floored it while holding the steering wheel for dear life. Again…don’t get me wrong. The unit was beautiful, but getting to it was a challenge given the inaccurate instructions and driveway steepness and length beyond what normal people would expect even if the posting says ‘very steep driveway’. I arrive to the top of the driveway and don’t see 32B and immediately begin to panic as there is no level ground…just more steep inclines into individual home garages. I don’t see a brown house either at the top of the driveway…which I later learn the driveway is shared by four homes. I panic and turn left (because the road/drive way doesn’t go right) and pull into the first driveway which was very steep. We get out of the car to check out the house. We see 32A next door and then finally notice a heavily faded sign at ground level for ‘Ohope Heights’. There was no designated parking spot so we are left to guess that this is the rental house. Again…a beautiful unit, but needs much better signage especially given the fact that nearly all people are not accustomed to driving up an incredibly long and steep driveway only to find that there is no flat ground to recover from. In addition, we wanted to go out for dinner, but didn’t dare want to experience the driveway again (especially in the dark) and we weren’t about to walk/roll down the long steep hill on foot.

Everything was amazing!! The property and hosts were beyond our expectations. The unit was flawless and perfect location. The breakfast was truly delightful and absolutely 💯

There was nothing to not like, everything was top notch!!

Spectacular views, the unit was well appointed and the breakfast was amazing. The host outstanding, thank you so much😄.

No dislikes.

attention to detail and the host was perfect

nothing jumps to mind, everything was great

Fabulous views overlooking the beach and the song of the Tuis was there all day. The apartment was extremely comfortable and a very well appointed kitchen. The fruit, cookies and soft drinks a surprise and Tony's breakfast is outstanding , the daily paper an added bonus. The hospitality from Tony is the best we've had in a long time.

The steep driveway is a bit scary to start with but we got used to it.

Close to beach and great Mexican restaurant and the view from the home just stunning

Nothing really

Perfection :)

The view, the location and the apartment.

Walking up the drive, it's easier to drive🤣

Great location and fantastic hosts. would highly recommend.

Fabulous location, friendly and helpful owner. The apartment was superbly equipped with everything you could imagine. Views were spectacular from the balcony.

The fact that we could only stay one night.

The location was amazing, with stunning views. Great welcome pack and fabulous breakfast. Very attentive and hospitable host.

A delicious assortment of breakfast items, fresh fruit, yoghurt, pastries and cereals Easy access to the beach and eating places

Nothing needed to make it better

Incredible location Exceptional attention to detail Lots of extra special touches

Nothing

Hosts were so accommodating, and the accommodation is everything you're looking for when looking for comfort. The view is just the icing on top!

What a beautiful place, the attention to detail was splendid.

I wouldnt recommend for any one unsteady on their feet . The steepness of the entry into the property was concerning. Walking to and from the beach was not easy, and I have such a steep driveway some friends refuse to use it..

Beautiful property and hosts was extremely helpful and accommodating and breakfast the next morning was exceptional. Would highly recommend this place

The property has stunning views, close to beach and local care……just perfect placement!!!

We loved the location, the outstanding views, amazing breakfast and snacks, friendly owner who was a great communicator.

The duvet was too warm and there were no other alternatives in the apartment. Everything else was perfect.

Amazing place, the view is second to none the friendliness and service from the hosts are incredible. The breakfast was one of the best I have experienced in a long time.

View, location, beach, hospitality, extras, all complimentary, bird life, breakfast 😋

Nothing at all.

Loved this place, the hosts are warm, kind and generous. They went out of their way to cater to my needs and to ensure I had a good time. I am grateful for this opportunity.

Lovely accommodation with great treats. I would highly recommend staying here for a short break. Nice views, comfortable, clean and great host.

N/A

Words can’t adequately describe the stunning ocean views from our room and the care and thought provided by our hosts Linda and Tony. The breakfast was amazing. We have never experienced such amazing hosts. They extended our checkout time which we took advantage of. The apartment was set up like a home. The sunrise view from bed was stunning.

It was just the perfect place for a Lil get away, everything about this apartment was nice The host , food , views , bedding , shower Best place I've stayed hands down

Leaving

The view is exceptional, everything was clean, tidy. the hosts were really friendly and the coffee pods for the nespresso machine was great. Really enjoyed the morning coffee over looking the beach even though the weather wasn’t playing ball

This is an amazing place to stay, the view from the balcony breathtaking. Tony is an amazing host, very accommodating, helpful and so generous. The breakfast is fantastic with enough provided to literally last the day, fabulous selection of food and very generous portions. Without a doubt the best B&B breakfast we have ever had, by a long way. On arrival there was complimentary fruit, bottled water, milk, ginger beer and cookies with a selection of teas and a fancy coffee maker with a comprehensive range of pods to choose from. There were even chocolates on the pillows. It felt as if Tony and Linda had sat down and listed everything they would ideally like from a holiday stay and then made sure they included it all in their holiday apartment. Really couldn't ask for more,

I don't think anything could be better but post a wee note of caution, access to reach this property is very steep and someone with mobility issues may struggle. Hubby is a stroke survivor and did manage but found walking outside a little challenging.

Excellent apartment in an amazing location with views to die for. Nice little touches such as bowl of fresh fruit and jar of cookies. Continental breakfast was excellent, delivered by Linda who was an excellent host.

That driveway...verrry steep. Sadly got woken up early by noise from upstairs. This was only shortlived though.

Amazing views and lovely hosts.

None!

Perfect location, wonderful accommodation, fabulous and generous breakfast. Welcoming, friendly hosts. The most comfortable bed with beautiful fresh linens. All the little extras: beach towels, water, biscuits, bowl of fruit

Nothing
