A great property with gorgeous views of the city and ocean. There is plenty to keep you entertained while you stay and a very cosy place to stay. Such a short stroll into the heart of the city, it is so very handy. Communication with hosts is excellent and questions answered promptly.

Jill’s place is as beautiful and charming as advertised. The views, gardens and spaciousness are wonderful. Jill has added lots of features to her home to make it welcoming and attractive. The ocean and CBD are minutes away, but yet the house is quiet and private. I loved it. Beware that the climb to the house is very long and steep. It is not easy to get one’s luggage or groceries to the door.

Excellent stay

Gorgeous home! Perfect location to explore Napier. The house had plenty of character yet with modern touch. A real homely feel. I was worried that being an old house it would get cold yet the heating system provided plenty of warmth. Host was great and I would stay again!
