This is a fabulous property which suited our family group of 10 perfectly, the property had everything you would need and more. It provided ample space for all of us to either gather together in the large lounge or in on the deck with the amazing view of the water. Would highly recommend this property. The property manager Kylie was also fabulous to deal with great communication.
Everything was great. Heaps of room. Very easy access to the beach across the road. House was very clean and spacious. Kylie was great to deal with. She was there to greet us when we arrived. Great place for our family of 6 adults and 4 kids.
Our group of 9 (4 families) loved staying at the Mt. Maunganui holiday home! Everything was excellent, but an extra toilet would have been convenient. Otherwise, it was a fantastic stay. The host did a great job waiting to welcome us on the property.
This house was perfect. Beautiful views of the beach and very easy access. The many bed/room combos allowed all of our 4 children to have a private space. It has everything we needed right down to aluminum foil and all cooking supplies. We would pick this place again and again. Just had an amazing time here.
Fantastic house in a great location. Karen was awesome to deal with and provided excellent information about the property and surrounds. The house has plenty of space for a family group and the large dining table was perfect for Christmas dinner. Made for a fantastic Christmas holiday.
Loved the house, right across from the beach. Spacious living and dining areas, communication with the agent was first class. Will be booking here again in the future.
Great location and home. Close to the beach (just cross the road from the home). Very clean, the living room was updated, it is large and spacious to have the family hang. Great porch area. The check out requirements were a little much, they asked to clean dishes and put them away (just fyi in case you plan on eating breakfast or leaving early like we had too), their cleaning fee only covers laundry services for the bedding. Had some great boogie boards and beach gear for families.
Great.
Lots of bedrooms with single beds allowing friends not to share beds. The sheets were gorgeous as in top hotel standard and white towels. Bliss and makeup facecloths.
The lounge is stunning with sunshine, views , spacious, good quality furniture for us all to sit down. Good size TV and heat pump for a cold day and a large deck for summer days.
Dining room has an amazing large dinning table for us all to eat around.
Kitchen well equiped though a tad small.
Separate TV lounge too.
Lots of off street parking which is needed is summer and even a lift if you need it.

Property Manager is a real Karen
The lady who runs this needs to not be in the service industry. I dont care if you've been burned. You shouldn’t be treating people like they’ve already done something wrong.
The house itself was nice enough. Kitchen is small, but overall would have been a fine place. But the lady is unreal. Very unaccomodating. Super unhelpful. Aggressively micro managey. We ended up having some family cancel so only three people were staying at the house. She tells me that the amount of people doesn't change the price. I think ok fine. Thats weird and not usually how it goes but whatever. Then to check in was terrible. I’ve paid my money and she’s freaking out about needing to know who’s staying at the house since I had booked it but wasn’t staying. Do everyone a favor and maybe trust that most adults dont need hand holding to check in. Our plans got a bit delayed and she was basically harassing me to know what time I'd be there (even though we were checking in after the approved start of check in time). And then when I wasn't staying at the place (my elderly parents and 40 year old sister were), she started losing her mind. And when she found out we were down for a wedding she started acting like we were having the wedding at her house. It was wholly off putting and very uncalled for. Even after we had checked in she wanted to talk to me on the phone like a complete lunatic. I paid you money, you should really just leave me alone. The point of a book a bach is to be a home away from home. But with this insane lady freaking out the whole time, I definitely would never stay here again. And I highly recommend that others avoid it. With how poorly she manages this place, I absolutely think she should change jobs. I’m on vacation and definitely did not need her added stress. And she sent an email talking about how hard it is to be a host when people rate you badly. You want a good rating? Be a better host. She needs to realize that people dont want to be micromanaged. Let me check in by myself. Have your ridiculously long book of rules out, but I dont need a personal phone call cause you're paranoid. Ideally I'd like to only contact you if I'm having a problem. Definitely would not recommend staying here at all.

Response from VrboOwner on 22 Sept 2023
Wow! I have been managing multiple holiday homes in Mt Maunganui and Papamoa for almost 6 years and have never come across a guest accuse me of these things or publish such lies and slander. This guest did not communicate the reason for the visit nor that it was a third party booking. This is a multi-million dollar property and I will not be doing my job by not doing my due diligence and knowing who is staying and the purpose the property will be used for. The owners of this property entrust me with their largest asset and I have a responsibility. The guest requested single beds to be turned in to king beds, which was not possible due to some beds being built in, bunk beds and the layout of the room and not having the correct size bedding available. The guest had the option to cancel with a full refund when her guest numbers reduced. I sent the guest a text to inquire about their ETA for check in, in order to turn lights on and send self check-in instructions for a late night arrival. I contacted the guest the next morning to check if they are settled and to get clarification on who the main contact will be at the property as I discovered that she was not staying. I wished her well for her wedding. This was the only and last contact I had with this guest. I contacted her father and was able to answer several questions they had. My impression was that they were appreciative of the call. They were fantastic guests. If this guest were honest and upfront and communicated better, we would have been prepared for their needs and would not have had to have any contact during their stay. Thankfully we have many positive 5 star reviews on several platforms which proves the level of service we provide. HOSTS BEWARE..!!
Beautiful house! It had everything you need great location and the host is very easy and quick to respond to all needs. Thank you for a lovely stay, lots of special memories were made. We can’t wait to come back.
