We had a wonderful stay at this property. It was very well equipped with comfy beds and plenty of space, and close to local amenities. We’re already planning our next stay here!
Awesome location, easy walk to beach and town centre.
Also really appreciated the quick response from Tina when we were having some trouble with the tv, she responded straight away and fixed the issue swiftly.
Could not have asked for a better stay.

Thank you Lauren for taking the time to leave us such a great review. We are pleased to hear you had a wonderful time and are looking forward to welcoming you back in the future!
Really enjoyed the house, lovely little details like toys for the kids and the coffee machine. Friendly and helpful communication from the owner, really happy with our choice to stay 🙂
Classic Kiwi beach house with everything you need.
We enjoyed our family holiday very much. The house is cozy and comfortable with a short walk to the beautiful Hahei beach. The campground nearby was had delicious woodfired pizza to order at night which was an added bonus.
What a charming place to stay. A cosy homely vibe, warm and inviting. A short stroll to the beach and to the town centre. Hahei is a delightful place to stay. Communication with Tina was exceptional. Wonderful suggestions of leisurely strolls, places for the morning caffeine supply, and marvellous meals. If 6 stars was a thing I'd have pushed that button in a heartbeat. Truly exceptional service.

Perfect home for our family of 5. Very responsive and helpful hosts. Great location - short walk to the beach plus a couple of old bikes available to use. Definitely recommend this spot on the Coromandel.
