Nice welcome and information given about the property. Lovely view and great room facilities.
Nothing, it was lovely and relaxing.
Breakfast was great, plenty of everything!
It was a cold weekend, so a heat pump would have been better than numerous heaters.
Great place to be. Leo was very friendly and explained the facilities in a fast way but easy to remember! Very comfortable and a great view from the 10th floor! Breakfast was very good! Walk to the water front is only a couple of minutes away with bars and restaurants!
Was all good!
Close to restaurants. The view.

This is our most favourite place to stay. Great hosts, great location, luxury accommodation, excellent breakfast. We wouldn't want to stay anywhere else.
Nothing all excellent
Lovely apartment in the heart of Tauranga. Very clean and comfortable with continental breakfast included. The host kindly picked me up and dropped me off at the airport, which was hugely appreciated. Would highly recommend for anyone staying in central Tauranga.
It didn't bother me but should be noted that the hosts live in the apartment as well - there is a shared foyer with their part of the apartment behind a secure door. It is still very private regardless.
Location, design and view

Loved the view from the room
Lovely location, easy walk to cafes etc...as parking in central is dreadful. Sadly the very slow work on the Construction Sites are still causing issues around the accommodation area. There was no chance for a sleep in with drills and hammering starting at 8am !! This site has been like this for over 2 years - not good enough to be honest, and certainly not the properties fault but does not make it quite as relaxing as it could be ! Best Continental Breakfast all supplied in your Apartment, fresh fruit a bonus
Construction site noise early in the morning
Good option and portions for breakfast. The bath was extremely smoothing. The hospitality was at high stranded. The rooms were very spacious and quite. Short walk to city centre and nice resaraunts. The views were were breath taking. We felt safe. Thank you so much Jenny and Leo.
There was nothing I could tell to not like.
This is in an excellent position, easy walk to centre of town plus cafes and restaurants. Very quiet, the hosts were friendly and very accommodating. Very secure for both parking and personal safety. The fridge was well stocked for breakfast.
Although the bed was comfortable the pillows were not, we were surprised to get a Super King Bed, however the linen was not big enough and the duvet was uncomfortably heavy. One rather annoying aspect was the sensor light in the hallway, having an internal bathroom and hallway meant it was pitch black, the light came on for way too short a time so we were left floundering in the dark. It would be good to either extend the length of time or put a nightlight in the hallway.
Loved the view, and the exceptional breakfasts options and even had a fruit basket
Nothing
The breakfast was excellent and very generous. Was just what we love. The views expansive and location perfect for wandering down to the waterfront, bars and shops. Lovely big bathroom.
Everything was great - bed extremely comfortable but we both don’t like high pillows. We always have this problem so when travelling in car will opt for taking our own.
立地・駐車場: 街の中心部でアクセス抜群。 無料の地下駐車場あり。 駐車場は何度でも自由に出入り出来るのが非常に有り難かったです。 バスルーム: 写真ではシャワーのみかと思っていましたが、実際にはバスタブあり。 のんびりお湯に浸かり、ラグジュアリーな気分でリラックスできました。 朝食: リビングルームに冷蔵庫あり。 水、ジュース、ミルク、コーヒー、紅茶、食パン、フルーツ、ヨーグルトなど用意されていて、とても有難かった。 食事:徒歩圏内に 沢山のレストランで便利。 景色があまりに良いので、予定を変更してテイクアウト。 部屋でのんびりワインと共に最高の贅沢になりました。 景色: 10階の部屋から海、緑、夕日が美しく移り変わる様子を一望でき、夫婦で滞在中ずっと楽しみました。 オーナーの対応: 到着前の連絡から当日の駐車場・お部屋への案内まで、非常に親切かつスムーズで心から感謝。 本当にありがとうございました!
何も無し!
Location was perfect. Hosts were fantastic. Appreciate personalized surprise in the refrigerator and o the bed. M
Maybe some pastries. Always live croissants or pain de chocolate.
bien localisé, facile d'avoir les clés et accès à un stationnement dans l'édifice. Grandes pièces et superbe vue. Déjeuner froid bien complet.
A very classy property well located near the centre of Tauranga . Hosts were a delightful couple
Room was lovely with great views, breakfast and coffee/juice was a nice addition and easy to walk to dinner.
Friendly welcome. Cleanliness and lovely continental breakfast. View from appartments was a bonus. Attention to detail with ammenities was great.
Pillow was a little large for my partner.
It was clean and well appointed, the owner/s were lovely and communicated well. Great views, breakfast was great with plenty of food

Fabulous view from level 10. Room was huge - we had a big bedroom, sitting/dining room, huge bathroom and undercover parking spot. The room had secure lift and door access. Fruit bowl and water provided, chockies on the pillow. Basic but delicious breakfast with plenty of food,. Really comfy bed. Room is a short walk from the water and waterfront park. Plenty of food options within a 5 or 10 minute walk.
There was nothing we didn't like.
Didn’t partake
Always some room for improvement
Breakfast was great CoNot private enough when walking from bathroom to bedroom
Curtains and bedspread need attention ,full of dust. Rest of the place was clean
Amazing, clean and beautiful, Jenny and her partner were fantastic hosts. 11/10.
La vue sur la baie. La propreté de l'appartement et son équipement l'accueil.

The accomodation is very comfortable clean and has a spectacular view. We also really like the host? They are friendly and respectful
We didn’t book for 2nd day haha
Exceptional views, secure parking, excellent central location and friendly hosts
One night was windy and very noisy.
A lovely breakfast was left in the room. We loved the location. Especially great for getting to the dolphin tours. Lovely room. A very warm welcome and the parking was very useful.
Aircon would have been great, but we knew it wasn't available. Only one thing we found the pillows far too deep/wide. We would have liked a choice of pillow sizes.
The thoughtfully prepared breakfast and drinking water. Walking distance to various restaurants and beach. Very friendly hosts. Easy access to underground parking lot. Home away home.
Nothing.
Aussicht über die Stadt, Sauberkeit
Sehr freundliche Gastgeber, alles sehr schön und gut eingerichtet, grosszügig und sehr sauber. Es wurde uns sogar ein feines Frühstück bereitgestellt.

Wonderful location and hosts
Loved the location. It really was about rest and relaxing, for me. Just enjoyed kicking back, watching tv, the view, and the comfort while pretending, I owed the unit.
Everything, the hosts were amazing too. Easy communication & instructions.
The spa wasn’t working :( however that didn’t affect my stay at all as I still had an awesome bath and the shower was amazing!!
Great breakfast

Great facilities. Great hosts
It’s an absolutely beautiful place with breathtaking views, upper class services. Nice bedding and a warm comfortable bed (with electric blanket!!we loved it!) Very clean and beautiful with friendly host (excellent communication!).
Something to keep in mind: while there is continental breakfast included, there is no facility to cook.
Clean, comfortable and amazing view. Breakfasts were very generous.
A lot of the gym equipment didn’t work
Fantastic location, quiet, private, and great attention to detail. The chocolate on the bedsides was a tasty addition. Thank you, Jenny & Leo 😊
Awesome view, great continental breakfast setup, excellent service (although I went green and only used it once). Very comfortable bed, good heat as needed or air... I was in the 10th floor.
Unfortunately the spa bath was waiting on parts and I require hydro therapy daily for many injuries... the awesome shower, good flow, great temp made up the difference.
Great location, top floor, private, secure and very comfortable. Lovely owners, very accommodating to every need. Lots of amenities. Great stay.
This is a really smart apartment at the top of the apartment block. The facilities were very good. Beautiful bathroom, lounge and bedroom and the breakfast selection was great.
I have marked down a bit because the apartment entry is shared with the owner of the apartment and is where they live. I’m not keen on this sort of arrangement and I think it needs to be highlighted that this is the situation. I also felt it was too expensive.
Breakfast selection was amazing.

The breakfast was exceptional, fresh fruit and all you need for a continental breakfast . The view was amazing and the rooms very welcoming and exceedingly clean and would definitely stay there again.
Nothing
Bed was very comfortable and accom was immaculately comfortable clean
Didnt like the owners private accom being only separated by a partition and door from our area.
I didn’t have any but it was available
This is a shared space with owner lives in same apartment which wasn’t disclosed on the booking so / semi private
The apartment was amazing, great views from the rooms. There was a decent sized bedroom with ample wardrobe space and the best bathroom we had during our time in New Zealand. Very comfy chairs in the large lounge and a decent sized tv, although the views were so good we didn't use that. Secure underground parking was a bonus too.
Only thing we could fault that the fridge was a little noisy and it spoils the wonderful ambience of a relaxing lounge with a fantastic view.
The breakfast was great. Thank you.
Not being able to lock the unit and the bedroom door at night. If I was staying by myself I would have felt very uncomfortable.
A very comfortable, spacious and well appointed BnB. The bed was luxurious, nice view from this penthouse level apartment and a great selection of continental style breakfast foods and drinks. The bathroom is very spacious and includes a spa bath if so inclined.
The property is superb, there is some construction works in the area which slightly complicates getting in and out but not a big issue,
Great view. The bed was very comfortable and the amenities were nice.
Clear instructions for access, spacious, the ceiling fan in the bedroom!
All was excellent
Great location and apartment is well furnished to include information folder on local area and hosts go are very keen to ensure you enjoy your stay and have what you need. Thank you Jenny and Leo.

WE LIKED EVERYTHING
We were greeted and helped with our bags. What we needed was a good bed and a shower , a table and chairs. Just to be able to sit in comfort after a long journey. Plus a nice view. We received all of the above.
That the apartments were connected.
