Lovely spacious property on the riverfront near centre of Whangarei. Perfect for accessing city centre restaurants and amenities. Close to walking path along the riverfront and close to Hundertwasser gallery. The home was comfortable and spacious with most amenities you could want for an enjoyable stay. Plentiful fruit on established orange and lemon trees - a bonus.

The place was really lovely, beautiful and comfortable. The location with the river in the backyard and forest walks easy to walk to from the house, was incredible. The hosts were super friendly and very helpful. All communication was really lovely, with quick response times, warm messages, and so helpful. We would absolutely recommend this place!

The only downside to this otherwise perfect property was the single beds. All four single mattresses were thin and uncomfortable. Not having a comfortable bed puts a damper on a holiday.

This is a great place to stay. We enjoyed the river out back. My kids saw fish and eels from the jetty. The house is modern and comfortable, and handy to the city centre.
