Lacked kitchen supplies like salt, pepper and cooking oil. Although minor it would have been nice to have those small items when cooking.

Reviewed Jan 22, 2026Spacious and clean. We had just arrived in NZ so we were quite jet-lagged. Not really focussed on anything other than resting.

Reviewed Jan 21, 2026Really great stay - I used to live nearby. Great to bring the family back to where I used to live. The accommodation was excellent and exceeded our expectations. Hassle free process.
It was a positive experience overall, only two minor things: 1. Ants in the kitchen seem to be an issue. 2. A washing machine would be a bonus!

Reviewed Jan 14, 2026Beautiful house. Clean and tidy. Great location.
The lounge with the AC was able to be cooled but the rest of the house did get quite warm. There were no drinking glasses in the kitchen.

Reviewed Jan 2, 2026Very well appointed property with excellent kitchen facilities. Good space for our family group, comfortable lounger area with generous sized bedrooms.
Sea views are distant and couldn’t be seen from inside the property. Travel from Auckland city centre was much further than expected.

Reviewed Dec 29, 2025The house was well decorated and had high quality fittings and facilities. It was quiet at night and was a good base from which we could explore the area.
There was a bit of an ant problem in the kitchen/living area, which was clearly ongoing because of traps laid for them. The pillows on the beds were very thin/flat. The sheets were a bit tired looking.

Reviewed Aug 10, 2025Spacious, comfy, tidy, the floor was very clean and soft carpet.
There was no microwave and no complimentary coffee pods for the coffee machine, and the coffee machine was dirty. There was also toast crumbs on the bench from the toaster, I don't think the trays had been emptied. And it was very very cold.

Reviewed May 6, 2025the accomodation was well located and very easy to access. the place was very clean and new. there was parking space at the back helped securing our valuable cars off the main road.
one of the double beds downstairs was very springy and uncomfortable. we couldnt check in earlier than 3 00 PM which meant we werent able to unload our belongings before heading to our plans for the night.
10/10
Reviewed Apr 25, 2025Property was modern clean and very welcoming! Beds were comfortable, showers were walk in and huge so felt luxurious and kitchen had everything you needed! Great property and would highly recommend 10/10 👍🏽
The only thing I would suggest (not a complaint) is to have an air dryer to hang towels and togs on after swimming at beach (no clothes line and no washing machine) and a washing basket in huge bathroom downstairs and upstairs for ease of laundry (we were a family of 5 with 3 kids who stayed for 3 nights) some plastic glasses would also be good in kitchen so kids don’t use glass, just my suggestions as a mum but overall great home which we would definitely visit again, it had that home away from home feel 👍🏽
