A lovely home away from home

It was a lovely place in a prime location. As a family we felt right at home, enjoying the ocean view from the lounge. With the park and beach near, it made life so much easier with both babies and a child. Hope to visit again soon.

Amazing kiwi bach. Well equipped. Enjoyed doing a puzzel from the cupboard as weather was not great.

Large family get together. Having the park opposite allowed young ones to be safely supervised.

Great Location for Children

We had a great stay here and was a great location. Just felt the bedding and pillow cleanliness let this place down. But we still had a fabulous holiday, kids had a ball on the park and the beach.
