The Solitude - Comfort at its Best by Carmichael Reserve in Tauranga

The whole house has an amazing, calm energy, which made our stay so peaceful and relaxing. The hosts have added so many lovely touches throughout, and were an absolute pleasure to communicate with. The location is great, very walk-able to local shops and park with a playground for families. Beds were really comfy, with good pillows and bed linen. Extremely clean house with fantastic amenities! Would recommend to anyone and look forward to staying again in future!

The only downside was having to check out!

We had such a wonderful stay at Cynthia’s beautiful home! She is an incredibly kind and thoughtful host. She even made fresh bread for us to enjoy for breakfast. She also gave us lots of great recommendations for delicious restaurants and places to visit nearby. The house is absolutely beautiful and looked exactly like the photos. Everything was clean, comfortable, and beautifully arranged. There were so many thoughtful details throughout the house, and you could really tell how much care and effort Cynthia had put into making the place special.

Nothing!

The location was perfect for us - very handy to everything we needed. There is a cafe a couple of minutes walk away and a supermarket up the road. The house itself had plenty of room and everything you could possibly need for both function and comfort. The beds were comfortable and it was very quiet, so there were no interruptions to sleep. Cynthia is a very kind host - she offered to make us bread, which was lovely of her - and she made sure we had all the information we needed.

The previous guests had smoked in the house. Cynthia was VERY apologetic when she realized the smell had lingered and was going in to do a deep clean. It is appalling that other people would be so disrespectful of the house or of future guests, but Cynthia did everything she could to take care of that for us.

host was awesome and thier home was beautiful. We enjoyed our stay and the host were amaing, they even baked us a bread and gave us some gifts we felt spoiled and well looked after

The Solitude is a really beautiful modern and comfortable house with a lovely open plan layout. Great interior design throughout the house, lovely modern furniture and the large kitchen with an island bench was fantastic. Access to the internal double garage with a laundry was a bonus. The house is a 2 minute walk to a beautiful estuary park to enjoy a run or walk in.

Nothing it was all lovely!

The home was comfortable, immaculately maintained, spacious and well appointed with amenities and kitchen supplies. The location made walking outdoors and driving easy to enjoy.

Quiet residential location. Well appointed house with excellent amenities

Would have preferred more outdoor space

Fabulous quiet location

Stylishly fitted out to a very high standard,very comfortable had everything we needed . Short drive to Mount Maunganui beach. Lovely welcome pack.

The house is just so well looked after and eye for detail is everywhere.

Everything was just brilliant

Amazing decor, feels homely.

Nothing it’s perfect.

Really nice and quiet area, perfect for families that want a peaceful stay

N/A

This property is well designed and has everything you could need for a stay. Great big TV, comfortable beds, treats, coffee.

While communication is important, there were many messages, it’s more of a personal thing, I’d prefer just the key information.

What a beautiful place. So welcoming, tidy, clean. Has everything you need. From a fully equipped kitchen, spa bath, comfortable beds, plenty of toys for kids! The location was also great, very close to the grocery shop. We absolutely loved the stay! Exceeded our expectations. Can't wait to come back.

We loved everything about The Solitude. Our host Cynthia & Michael were so helpful & even got us breakfast. We are looking forward to coming back to stay again.

Amazing property and amazing hosts. There was a freshly baked (homemade) loaf of bread waiting for us on arrival which was delicious. The house was extremely warm and cosy given our stay was the middle of winter. The hosts were very accommodating and purchased a porta-cot for our youngest to sleep in, even though we said that wasn’t necessary. A variety of coffee pods were also purchased for the nespresso machine for the early morning coffee. Will definitely stay again next time we’re in Tauranga.

Great hosts. Fabulous facilities for a toddler (games, books etc). Clear instructions on how to use appliances and facilities. Great Eco store amenities. Quiet and comfy.

Nothing really.

The place is spacious, tidy, clean, modern and was beautifully prepared. We especially enjoyed the big TV and Netflix. Cynthia is so friendly, caring and so helpful, she showed fantastic customer care and service.

Nothing, everything was great

Well appointed property with all amenities

Not sure worth the value per night, definitely need a full house

Amazing property, had EVERYTHING we needed and the instructions for light switches, aircon and accessing the property were clear and easy to follow. Rooms great size and beds were exceptionally comfy. We loved that the place had a coffee machine and all cooking utensils, cutlery and pots and pans which were put to use as we preferred to prepare our own meals.

No fault.

Beautiful and homely. The most organised BnB we have ever stayed at. It had everything. The hosts left personal touches like a hand written note. Easy entry with door codes no key needed. The wifi can be reached in all 4 corners of the home. 2 bathrooms which is a must for my family when travelling with the kids. I loved the fact they had a Netflix account loaded and I didn’t have to load my own. The TV is huge and is perfect for the room size. It also has Polk audio which gives viewing a cinematic feel. My son loved hooking his laptop up to the monitor in the garage and having his own private space while gaming with his friends online back home. The decor is perfect. Nice art work and decor gives the home an inviting feel far from some of the sterile BnBs we have encountered in the past. My wife is an artist and she loved the style and attention to detail. Also the weather was super hot but the home has great AC that kept us cool at all times. Communication with the hosts was great and made our stay easy and care free. I would highly recommend this accommodation. Me and the whole family loved it.

The only issue I had was I can’t sleep on big pillows I like slim small pillows but my wife loved the pillows. So I went to the local Warehouse and got me a couple of slimmer pillows. If your like me just bring your own pillows.

This property was everything that we wanted and more. Spacious, clean, fully equipped with everything that we needed and not to mention perfect location. Property has a very new feel to it. Good value for money.

Hosts kept in touch prior to the arrival making it easy to settle in. It was a very nice, comfortable and spacious house with plenty of amenities, very much enjoyed. Also a massive tv, good spot for movies!

Great location with parks and walks nearby, not to mention a great little cafe around the corner for easy breakfast and good coffee. Very clean and well maintained, everything you need to make your stay easy.

An outdoor bbq would be a great asset to finish the outdoor vibes.
