On The Beach

Owners just afforded me privacy and allowed me to get on with my stay. Their clear written instructions around where things were allocated made it easy to understand where items were, how to work the tv and internet etc was great plus having being given the unexpected bonus of being given food and some juice to cover for breakfast over my four day stay also made me feel welcome.

Ran out of time of not being able to use the swimming or spa pool, but seriously there was nothing I could fault as everything I needed was there. If I had to be really picky however it was maybe not having air conditioning in the room, but that was balanced out when opening the windows.

We loved this space for a short getaway. Lesley was very accomodating and friendly and the provided breakfast was the perfect way to start each day. Our dietary needs were also met so that was all the better! The location was great, close enough to drive into town with ease. We loved drinking our morning coffee watching the sunrise and the waves crash over the beach.

Nicely presented studio with a great shower and thoughtful breakfast items. We loved the direct access to the pool and spa. A couple of small things to note — the spa has a 7pm curfew, and while the listing mentions being on the beach, access is a short walk down the road rather than directly from the room. The main gate was also a bit inconvenient to use, and overall it felt a little less private than expected. Overall, a comfortable stay with some lovely touches.

What a lovely furnished apartment just on the beach. Fully equipped and spacious living area. With outdoor seating, swimming pool and hot tub, what more could you want. Fully stock fridge on arrival was an added benefit

Having to leave!

We loved everything and Charlies' (little Jack Russell) visits were an extra special treat.

Freundliche und sehr aufmerksame, hilfsbereite Gastgeber. Alles war sehr ordentlich, mit einer sehr schönen und neuen Ausstattung. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

A beautiful evening and sitting by the pool for dinner. Great walkway, so close by to walk off the dinner. Lesley was a lovely host.

All good, just a bit of a distance if you wanted to eat out.

Wow. A beautiful annex to the main house where hosts Lesley and Kevin live. Private with sole access to the salt water swimming pool and hot tub. Pristine studio so well appointed - a tasteful luxury hotel vibe. All you could want is provided including provisions for breakfast. Everything of excellent quality from the bed and linens to the pool and seating area outside. The hosts are friendly and considerate, at all times being aware of the guests privacy. Excellent value for money.

We chose the property as it was slightly out of town. A car is required. There was nothing not to enjoy.

Loved our stay here. Very approachable and friendly owners and their dog Charlie. Extremely clean- comfortable beds ( hubby wanted to take the pillow home it was so good) had everything we required. Beautiful pool and spa pool that we used. Breakfast provided- very enjoyable. Little extras- chocolates.Would have liked longer for more walks along beach (gravel) and bike rides. One of the nicer places we have stayed at. Thanks

If staying longer may want an electric frypan for cooking but otherwise everything perfect.

Very cosy and beautiful scenery

None

We absolutely loved, On The Beach! The accommodations were exactly as pictured, fresh and immaculate. Lesley thought of everything a guest might need in the kitchen, including a few treats in the refrigerator. Our only regret is that we didn't use the beautiful pool and hot tub. This was our favourite accommodation during our two weeks of vacationing on the North Island.

Die Einrichtung Der Pool

Das Objekt liegt an einer viel befahrenen Straße und nahe dem Flugplatz Napier

Lesley war eine sehr aufmerksame und freundliche Gastgeberin, insbesondere Ihre Tipps waren sehr hilfreich. Das Appartment war sehr groß, sauber und sehr hochwertig eingerichtet. Das Spa und der Pool waren natürlich sehr willkommene Addons. Einzig das Frühstück hat noch Luft nach oben, aber wir waren vorbereitet.

Der einzige - leider gravierende - Kritikpunkt ist die Lage. Die Hauptstraße in der Nähe und der Fluglärm sind leider sehr störend, Schlaf bei geöffnetem Fenster fast unmöglich. Das Frühstück ist sehr übersichtlich, die Gastgeber haben ein anderes Verständnis über die Relevanz des Frühstücks.

Lesley and Kevin were lovely hosts and extremely attentive. Accommodation was great, nice and clean with an awesome refreshing swimming pool and jacuzzi! Great breakfast provisions with alternative milk options provided. A welcoming retreat!

Fridge was a little noisy.

Homely feel & extremely clean with a very comfy bed ! Good kitchen set up for our 2 night stay !!

It was further out from Napier CBD than we thought & close to the airport so we needed to drive everywhere & at times a little noisy !

房东很贴心的准备了美味早餐。

Spacious and clean

Could hear banging from above one night that was rather loud. Also there needs to be a screen door between kitchenette and main room.

War die kürzeste und doch sehr informative Einweisung, die wir je hatten.Sehr schöne saubere comfortable Unterkunft. Die Besitzer wohnen im Haus,was nicht weiter stört. Den Saltwasser Pool der direkt vom Wohnzimmer aus begehbar war haben wir auagiebig genutzt. Liegt direkt am Meer. Flughafen und Straße stören absolut nicht.

Leider ist das Meer hier nicht zum Baden geeignet, da die Küste steil abfällt und dadurch die Brandung zu stark ist.

Self contained modern unit. Lesley the owner lives on site and is very approachable but not intrusive. All very comfortable and nice bathroom. Swimming pool and hot tub available but we didn’t use. Breakfast items in the kitchen were good. Plenty to do in the area.

A good 5 mile drive out of town to a beach area - seemed a long way in the dark. You can just see the beach. The main road is a street away and can be heard.

Great spot — we really enjoyed our stay, especially the spa pool and wee Charlie! The apartment was well set up with everything we might need, and some treats too! Highly recommend for a stay in Napier, thanks Lesley 😊

The communication with Lesley was excellent. The information was clear, and Lesley responded quickly to any questions. The studio was beautiful. It was very clean and comfortable. The bedding was high quality and the shower gel and hand wash were also good quality. Don't forget to take your own shampoo! It was great to have some breakfast provisions and gf brownie was provided for my gf husband. That was a lovely touch! Crab Farm winery is about a 15 minute walk down the road. We hoped to grab lunch on the Sunday but they were fully booked, so plan ahead for that one. Ahuriri is less than a 10 minute drive away with many eating choices and Napier is about 15 minutes drive. So the location needs a car really. There are cycle tracks close by that would be lovely in the Summer and Lesley has bikes that can be hired. There is some road noise and plane noise as you're close to Napier airport. The pool is lovely and would be amazing in the Summer. We stayed in Winter and as tempting as it looked, I could only get in the cold water as far as my knees before scuttling into the spa pool instead. The spa was a real bonus! Lying watching the stars on a Winter evening was the highlight of the stay! We also enjoyed meeting Charlie the dog!!!

Loved all the additional touches like fresh bread (and other breakfast options) and milk. The Beach was very clean and loved that it had a pool and spa available.

Access to the beach front was a walk around the corner.

Love how they did the extras , excellent instructions and nice and private

Loved it all

Very quiet, clean and beautiful with everything we need. Location is great. Beach is only two minutes walk. I enjoy watching sunrise while having breakfast. The best thing to mention is the hospitality provided by Lesley. She is so nice, friendly and helpful! Thanks Lesley, hope to see you again.

No

Breakfast provisions were appreciated. Property was very close to the beach.

An electric frypan would have been appreciated

The property was spotless, a light but completely adequate breakfast was provided, the bed was very comfortable there was a heated towel rail and lovely chocolate in the fridge

There was some noise from the highway but only enough to affect a very light sleeper.

The facility was immaculate, so modern and stylish.We totally enjoyed the space.Our hosts were friendly and lovely with all possible needs met for our stay.From the comfort of the bed to the relaxation in the hot tub, it was phenomenal .We got to recharge during our stay, the tranquil atmosphere enabled us to surrender our fast paced way of life.

We initially thought we would have a full ocean view but sadly did not, as stated on the website. However, it certainly did not dampen our thrill about the room or stay.

The room was clean, bed comfortable. Lovely breakfast. Spa and pool were great.

Tv by the bed, could be by couch so you could sit there and watch it.

Was homely, clean and quiet. Lovely hosts and gorgeous dog! Only down side was not being able to use the pool however we didn't feel like we missed out.

Nothing, had everything we needed.

The room was spotless! Felt very homely, hosts had thought of everything including beach towels which we used for the hot tub and little chocolates in the fridge. The pool was lovely but the weather was just a little too cold for us to enjoy.

You can’t use the hot tub after 7pm which is a shame but understandable as it is all part of the hosts garden.

Simple but good produce

Entry to property was difficult and narrow

Nice comfortable little apartment a short drive from Napier with a small unheated swimming pool and comfortable outdoor seating. Although the property overlooks the beach, the apartment only has a beach view from the kitchen window - there is no actual access to the beach from the apartment. The hosts are very friendly and we loved little Charlie, their terrier 🥰 Quality breakfast items provided.

Nothing - all good.

Modern, comfortable and clean. Easy access to cycle trails, the beach and a short drive into The town centre

Lovely weekend stay, great place comfortable had everything we needed, freindy welcoming hosts and just loved Charlie. Would totally recommend it. We would love to visit again 😊

This is the perfect holiday home. A very friendly host who communicated well before we arrived. Top quality fixtures and fittings, beautifully appointed, great layout and loved the hot tub. We couldn’t find fault, truly.

Absolutely nothing

Lovely host who made it very easy for us. Beautiful place with everything we needed. Very welcoming and lovely hosts

Nothing

The suite was well appointed and the couple were available and attentive. We appreciated the barbecue. We went grocery shopping and barbecued all our dinners. The hot tub was nice. The weather was unusually windy and stormy, so it was lovely to eat our breakfast and dinner at ",home". Our host brought us fresh bread once and the fridge had chocolate, milk, jam and peanut butter with a loaf of bread. Granola coffee, olive oil and salt and pepper and an herb mixture. The little breakfast bar looks out at the ocean.

N/A I would have liked dressing gowns. It is a luxury I don't usually pack.. And a cosy blanket for curling up with. A night light in the bathroom would help.

Lovely hosts, light breakfast supplied & lovely treats was an added surprise

Only thing we didn't like were the pillows but that is a personal preference. I would normally take my own but had forgotten. There was a choice of pillow types though which was great.

Such a beautiful place and the facilities were awesome. There is also a pool and spa. Hope to stay there again one day

Great location. Perfect place for a getaway if you are looking for a relaxed time with a pool and spa. The hosts were very accommodating and helpful. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay here again

The property is beautiful and more than what we expected. Lovely private Spa and pool. Comfortable bed and great location. The best part was the accommodating host. Super friend and welcoming.

It was very clean, quiet and comfortable. It was also nice having a pool and spa to ourselves.

It was clean and comfy and there were even breakfast items provided. As well as all other necessary items. And the pool and spa were great

I loved everything
