About the host
Hosted by SandraHu6
Hi My name is Sandra Hunger. I am happily married and have 3 children. I grew up from around the coast in Opunake. I moved to New Plymouth when I was 17 to start my nursing career. I worked in New Zealand for about 5 years before I went tripping around the world with my boyfriend at the time (Bryce) on our working holiday through Canada, America and South America. Then over to England where we based ourselves and tripped around Europe. We eventually came back to New Zealand and settled in New Plymouth to get married and raise a family.
Why they chose this property
Fitzroy Beach Retreat is a fabulous spot to have a holiday. It is spacious inside and outside - great for larger groups but also lovely and homely for couples also. Outside is a covered patio area where you can sit down and relax. The property is great for bringing your dog as the property is fenced and also has the bonus of a huge field out the back.
A cosy wood burner is great to sit around on those cold nights.
Property can sleep up to 10 people.
3 Bedrooms.
Sky and Sky sport.
Close to the beach and walkway.
Close to shop (5minute walk to Fitzroy Shops)
