Hi Lee, thanks very much glad it was a good stay. Standard check in and check outs for hotels aswell is in around 2 or 3pm and out 10am. If there is space either end, as in no one arriving after you or leaving before you arrive we can always look at altering the times closer to the time of arrival. Thank you

Second stay at Heaven Awaits and just as relaxing as last time. Everything you need, comfy furniture and beds. The view is amazing, love waking to see the sun rising over the sea. Location is handy to beach and Mangawhai shops which have great food options. Can’t wait to go back!

We had a fantastic girls’ weekend away! The house had everything we needed and was spotlessly clean. Check-in with the property manager was a breeze. The property was much bigger than expected, with a great layout that would easily suit larger groups. The kitchen was well equipped, and the bonus was the cozy log fire - perfect given the terrible weather. Great location too - we’ll definitely be keen to come back!

Magical mangawhai!

Large, spacious house with multiple outdoor areas. Had a few wobbles but the property manager was very quick to address them. Would highly recommend for groups or families. Great location walking distance to both estuary and beach.

Family mini break

Beautiful property, met and exceeded expectations. Plenty of space for all ages to be together or escape for quiet time. Stunning views - look forward to returning for coffees and wines on the deck another time. Only downfall is one toilet but we all managed just fine. Great location for walks to surf beach and estuary.Thank you, highly recommend and we'll be back.

A beautiful house and location

We arrived to a clean house and amazing view of the sea and estuary of Mangawhai heads. Some of the equipment like the dishwasher doesn't work that well, but otherwise the equipment to use in the kitchen is really outstanding. Would love to return one day with my friends.

Heavenly Views

Very nice property - suggestions are: Wifi coverage is poor on the lower bedroom level - needs a booster Bed in master/main bedroom ( rear back LH corner is way to hard for a holiday rental - had trouble sleeping every night. TV - complicated, Property Manager - Dave- very nice to deal with Great views and very well equipped kitchen

Happy

All was good apart from it smelling like cat wee and the lawns being ridiculously long when we first arrived and having to contact to get cut. Other than that. Clear instructions and nice and tidy with a beautiful view. We were disappointed coming from overseas that we were still supposed to pay $25 per person for linnen. That seems a bit ridiculous.
