Beachside Bliss for Business Traveler

This was perfect accommodation for an overnight stay as a solo traveller to Mount Maunganui for a business meeting. It was in a great location and I loved the proximity to the beautiful beach and a fabulous cafe just a few minutes walk away. Would stay again.

Overall, our stay was good. The location is great, right on the beach and has a gate which made us feel secure. You can easily walk to Mt Maunganui. GPS says it’s a 30 minute walk, though if you go along the beach line, it doesn’t feel that long. The inside of the flat was spacious and had lots of amenities. I particularly enjoyed the washing and dryer machine as well as the coffee maker! When we arrived, the flat was pretty dirty. The carpet had visible dirt on, and there was toothpaste in residue from someone flossing their teeth on the mirror. Other than cleanliness, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay contact with the host was great!
