Orewa Beachside

Located so close to by the beach. Queen bed in the lounge area was all we needed but the extra 2 singles would come in handy if you are bring kids along. Great location for a girls weekend with the beach and cafes all so close.

Lekker dicht bij het strand.

Er was maar 1 elektrische kookplaat.

Spacious. Quiet location. Well-appointed kitchen with plenty of tea and coffee.

No handtowels and facecloths. One small bathtowel each for two adults. No servicing. Excessive noise from people upstairs on Saturday night.

Location was exceptional, loved the Mediteranean vibes and the outdoor garden and seating area. BBQ was very handy. We had a wonderful experience staying here. We look forward to staying again, suited us perfectly.

Location

Beautiful courtyard and location next to the beach so you could hear the waves

Nothing. Good value.

Sehr Gut Grosser Innenhof Nahe am Meer

Alles bestens

It was very attractive. It had the kind of space I needed for visiting and sleeping.

It wasn’t as clean as I would have liked. The bed was not comfortable in the main living area. Little useful space on the kitchen counter.

Perfect location, 20 metres to Orewa Beach. Amazing courtyard, lovely decor, very quiet. Rufus very friendly little dog, as we're the owners. Great weekend stay to get away from the hustle and bustle of Auckland, just a short drive, to peace and tranquility. Would stay again.

The location is wonderful, just yards from the beach. The courtyard and deck are really great, and such a bonus.

Not being able to securely separate our accommodation from the unit upstairs was strange. The kitchen is tiny with limited cooking facilities which may be fine for a night or two but for a week it was a little difficult. The provision of a small gas barbecue on the deck for guests use would really help.

Great location, nice accommodation, nice hosts

Advertised as breakfast included, it wasn't. No internet for tv, like Netflix etc.

We liked the location and the hosts were nice.

The accommodation is in desperate need of a declutter and renovation. There is no soundproofing, so you can hear the movements upstairs, and it didn't feel very private. We think it was very overpriced and should be cheaper to reflect its current state.

Location great. Hosts really nice

Only 1 normal queen bed others were children beds low n uncomfortable. Internet stopped working 2 day we were there. Breakfast had been discontinued lucky we had enough food for breakfast as well. New owners but we were not advised of the changes Quiet disappointed

Location was perfect! The sound of the sea was calming, courtyard was beautiful.

The small beds were not the most comfortable, also not being able to lock the bathroom was fine as I was traveling with family, but if that were not the case it would not be ideal. Also there was no way to completely separate the space from the upstairs.

The location ONLY!!. Had been there 3 times before with previous owners. Very disappointed this time around with new owners.

I knocked on the door. No-one was there. I found a number and rang. The hosts answered and told me where to find the key. Not told of this until I rang!! No hospitality. Huge wooden beams at gate on the ground. Had to move them to get my bag through. I am 63. Not acceptable- ANYWHERE. Electric blanket and light unplugged FAR under the bed. had to lie on my stomach to sort this one out. Gritty feel of dust on outside chairs. Thread-bare drying cloths. Cheap toilet paper (for a boutique dwelling). No MILK provided. No extension lead so that I could use my hot brush near a mirror. Soap dispenser in bathroom did not work. So disappointed.

The beach it's a great way to walk in to the restaurant and shopping area.

All of it

Nothing all good

Wonderful location ....I could hear the ocean as I relaxed in the beautiful courtyard garden .

Everything was pretty much perfect

Very close to the beach. Beautiful private courtyard with pretty flowers and convenient outdoor shower. Had everything you would need for a comfortable stay with very friendly hosts!

Nothing!

Everything. Super comfortable and very well equipped. You would have to try very hard to find somewhere nicer. Dave & Linley are lovely people too. Loved sitting out in the courtyard.

Nothing. Perfect

Hosts Dave and Linley are super-nice people - they think of everything to make sure your stay is as good as it can be. The location is wonderful, right by the beach, so you can fall asleep listening to the waves. The bed was amazingly comfortable; haven’t slept so well in a long time!

Lovely apartment, fantastic location.

Everything you need for a relaxed stay. Almost on the beach 😁 Very friendly, helpful owners

Great accommodation. Great hospitality

nothing

We got an extra perk of some home baking which was delicious! The hosts were extremely friendly and were available if we needed anything, which we didn't.

I can not praise this venue enough.To hosts Dave & Linley you are exceptional.We need more people like you in the hospitality industry. Either a short walk or drive to dining & shopping. Right on the beach.

I really can not fault this venue.

The owners, David and Linley, are delightful and were very helpful with recommendations on restaurants and hiking trails. Very classy people!

It was lovely…like being at home … loved the little touches David explained everything when we arrived and the setting was beautiful.

Location was lovely. Hosts were lovely. Slept well, enjoyed the privacy. Loved walking along the beach and being able to walk into town and back

Fantastic location with everything you needed available, easy parking, enjoy an easy walk along the beach to shops.

Television a bit small but no big deal

We loved the location, close to the beach, shopping center, restaurants, and our host were very friendly .we loved that it was quite and very private. The court yard was lovely really spacious for visitors,best of all outdoor shower, and out door washing lines for when you come back from the beach, love it.

I can't fault anything.

Near beach. Nice courtyard

Misleading information on booking.com about bedrooms. One very small single linked by bathroom to bed in lounge. Expensive for what was offered- eg we stayed in others with 2 proper bedrooms both with en suite, lounge etc plus breakfast for considerably less per night.

Great location . Quiet and private . Excellent hosts.

Loved the location and how private and cosy it was. Bed was super comfy, had everything we needed and the hosts are lovely! Great that it is so close to the beach too, can hear the waves from your bed!

Nothing we didn't like

Very friendly hosts.

Thank you for a fabulous long weekend. Great location, gorgeous courtyard and friendly hosts. We will be back again 😊

Location was excellent. we wanted something close to Orewa township and the beach and this property provided both. Linley and David were excellent hosts and could not have been more helpful. The room and outside entertainment area were really nice as well as being clean. We will be back!

Every aspect of the B&B was as described in the site outline and was very satisfactory. The location is superb as far as access to beach and town centre goes. The hosts are obviously very experienced and have anticipated every need we had in terms of facilities and comforts including, as mentioned by others, Linley's delicious welcome cake. David was very hospitable when we arrived early and set us up without hassle. We can wholeheartedly recommend Orewa Beachside.

Having the hosts live above the guest facilities, but that is unavoidable and was not a problem. Otherwise, no dislikes at all.

Excellent proximity to beach and fabulous Orewa restaurant. Every little detail has been thought of. Thank you David and Lynley we will be back.

Warm welcome by the hosts explaining the details of tge property. We cannit ask for more frim them.

This property, inside and out, is beautiful. The small equipped kitchen was stocked with so many breakfast items to choose from! The hosts are lovely and very helpful! You will love the private courtyard too!

Fantastic hosts. Would certainly stay again if in area.

Location was excellent and the owners were great. Property is very nice and well maintained

100%great stay

Relaxing...used for business. Comfortable. Good free wifi

Great location, very close to the beach for a nice stroll to the town centre for a meal or breakfast. The location of Orewa is far enough from Auckland for peace and quiet, yet within easy commute with the motorway being only 2km away. The accommodation was great and provide complete privacy. The rooms were well furnished, very clean. The hosts were very attentive warm and very friendly. A return to Orewa and to Beachside is certainly on the cards!

Very nice accommodation with private courtyard virtually on the beach (50m). David and Linley were very welcoming, friendly and most obliging. Almost all needs catered for (for some reason wifi was weak and intermittent on Apple but ok on Android) - apartment got a bit cold by the morning which was just about ok being Easter but would have been an issue in colder weather. Early am sunrises looking east over the beach horizon were amazing.

This stay was an amazing way to begin our dream vacation in New Zealand! The apartment was in the ground level of the owner's home. The bedroom opened up to a beautiful private garden, where we enjoyed meals, a glass of wine and conversation. Step outside of the enclosed garden and you see the majesty of the Orewa Beach for a swim or beach walk. The hosts David and Linley provided wonderful provions for our breakfasts and even shared some homemade baked goods. They were very helpful in pointing out local sites to visit including Puhoi, Alice Eaves Scrnic Reserve, and Shakespear Regional Park Reserve. We also drove up the coast to Omaha Beach and Tawharunui Regional Park. Orwewa Beachside was a slice of heaven!

Friendly family

Lovely place to stay. Quiet. So close to the beach you can hear the waves lapping gently at the sand. The hosts thought of everything you might need, and we're very friendly and helpful. We would love to stay again.

We were greeted upon arrival by our host and given a short tour of the apartment and courtyard gardens. The rooms were beautiful with soft island colors and overstuffed pillows that beckoned us to relax. The bath made us feel pampered with lovely shampoo, conditioner, shower gel and oversized robes. The heated towel rod and antifog mirror were a much appreciated touch. The kitchen had everthing needed to prepare a meal or just a snack to take out on the patio as we listened to ocean waves and lounged with the cool breeze. Truly an Oasis for the weary travelers. We will absolutely return to this gem again. Thank you David and Lynnleigh for such a wonderful experience.

A wonderful couple have provided a fantastic respite for travelers. Jet lagged but so refreshed.

Fabulous. Plenty of room for the three of us traveling together (four would have been a bit tight). Breakfast items (cereal, toast, eggs) and fresh fruit offered an outstanding choice. Owner checked in with us each morning to ensure we had everything we needed or to answer any questions. We felt pampered and important!

David and Linley are very friendly and kind. We cooked breakfast by ourselves in the kitchen in the room. They kindly prepared bread, milk, eggs, yorgult, fruits, bamana cake and so on. Location is also good. I would like to stay there again.
