Perfect

Perfect home/accomodation for my children, grandchildren and I. Met my expectations and family needs for a relaxing and peaceful autumn/winter weekend in Napier. Marine Parade has plenty of activities for children and town is in walking distance.

Napier holiday

Great house to stay in for our holiday in Napier, awesome view for the sea and great location. Comfortable warm house. Stairs were a bit of a hazard for our 1 year old but other than that no complaints

Loved the location and layout of house. Wonderful beach walks. Enjoyed the wine trails. We were inundated with ants and the dishwasher was broken.

We really liked the location, and it suited a larger group so we could walk every ware to shops and attractions. The views are excellent however with the ranch slider open there is a lot of road traffic noise. Property is very tired with kitchen cupboards falling off, stair hand rail loose, Bathroom tap loose. We had to remove a rug in lower bedroom on floor and put in garage as it stunk of cat urine.

Not worth the money

The view was exactly what we wanted however the property left a lot to be desired. It needed a good clean inside and out, there were crumbs on the floor on our arrival, the counters and table top were sticky/greasy, the oven was disgusting, the dish cloth was rank and looked like it hadn’t been changed in a good long while. The outdoor furniture was dirty and covered in cobwebs not something easily cleaned off.

Your comments have been shared with the property management team to ensure improvements are made, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We hope to resolve this for future guests.

Family visit

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. It was perfect for our needs. We would loved to have stayed longer. Perfect for children scooting across the road and we loved all that foreshore area. This place is spacious and very well equipped with lots of cleaning products, toilet paper, kitchen utensils, garbage bags etc. it is all ready to just enjoy.

Great place to stay on the waterfront

We loved this place with its sea views from the large lounge area to the private off street parking at the back. Would thorougly recommend. The complimentary bottle of wine on arrival was also a really nice touch.

Cleanliness of the property could be improved and cupboard handles/hinges repairing. One toilet didn't flush that well. Location of the property suited four women, away from the hustle and bustle but easy walking distance to town/cafes/restaurants.

Balustrades around the stairwell are not safe for small children, probably not legal.
