Weekend away

Great location, the house was ideal for myself and three friends who were in town for a sports event at the nearby arena. The house had everything that we needed and we enjoyed a few drinks in the afternoon sun on the deck, thanks.

From start to finish this has been a fabulous booking. The hosts communication was spot on and made me feel comfortable to ask any questions. The house was perfect for our needs as a family, great location for exploring Mount Maunganui and other areas a bit further afield a bonus with the shopping centre just down the road too. And as said in the listing the beach is 2 mins away and what a beach, (we love a sunset/sunrise photo). Would recommend this lovely house and hosts to yone looking to spend time.in this area. Many thanks.for helping make this trip one to remember.

Beautiful homely feel with the family

We had a fantastic stay! Chris and Greg were great to deal with—friendly and helpful throughout. The house was well presented, in a great location, and had everything we needed. Instructions were clear, making it very easy to access the property. The fun selection of games was a great touch and perfect for the whole family. Highly recommend and will certainly check availability in future when we next visit the Mount!

4 bedrooms

We needed a 4 bedroom house, position was close to beach for morning walks and coffee at George’s a much closer cafe nearby as well. In the mall, close by, was an excellent Vietnamese restaurant. Only 1 bathroom but it worked for us, only negative was we paid for sheets that were awful quality and polyester fabric, they had pills on them due to age and poor quality. I advise you to take your own, but we were flying in so paid the extra for them, one person took their own. House was close to Stadium where we were attending an event for 9 days. We left the house clean and tidy and were respectful tenants..

Thank you for your review .We thought we may get a comment about linen as this group earlier had asked about thread counts and quality . In over 12 years of hosting we have not ever had any complaints about our linen we supply as an option. This group obviously enjoyed our fantastic location. Our only negative was that they put the wrong key in the lock box then failed to lock it leaving the house unsecure.
