Very peaceful with everything a single person or couple would want. Cooking facilities, fridge/freezer, a laundry, a comfortable king size bed, a large porch with a peaceful outlook and an off set clothesline. It is located in a private setting behind a house that has the road frontage. The bus stops here if flagged. Across the road is direct beach access, and the Laguna restaurant a few paces down the road. One minute 47 seconds (from the front porch) up the road are: the Saigon restaurant (the food is lovely) with an associated coffee/food stall, car/scooter hire, and a grocery/liquor store. 10 minutes walk up the road is the Te Ara museum with beautiful coffee and sandwiches. Two minutes further (walking) there is beach access with lagoon cruises, kayak and paddle board hireage, and another grocery store. Further cafes are here also.10 minutes in the other direction is the Puretu cafe, a chandlery and snorkelling area.So, with the location and facilities on hand, this place is great value for money.
