Relaxing

Very enjoyable but was a little disappointed that the shared laundry advertised on the website was not available. However would still recommend property and would definitely come back.

Hi Nicole, we are very glad you enjoyed the apartment. We are very sorry that you didn’t get access to the washing machine :( We specially instructed the management company to give you access to it, but there must have been a misunderstanding. We wish you a lovely 2020 and look forward to hosting you again (this time with washing facilities available for you to use). Cheers Fernando and Libby

We are a Kiwi-Argentine couple with two young daughters. We both work remotely and have chosen to base ourselves in Mapua, New Zealand because we love the community and the laid-back lifestyle. We have both travelled extensively and plan to do a lot more of it as a family.

We look forward to meeting you!
