Relaxing Ruakaka
We enjoyed our stay in Ruakaka. The beds were extremely comfortable. Carpet was soft and the deck out the back was handy. Clean and comfortable. And there were provisions left for us to use. Thank you. Only we were dissapointed at not having the spa to use. Might have been wishful thinking and an assumption on our part.
