This is a superb large house and ideally located on the beachfront. The hosts and manager were all lovely people, considerate and kind. The hosts were very kind to us in the cyclone. Multiroom meant it suited our whanau perfectly.
We hesitate to say anything negative but this is a critical thing and I see has been mentioned before without apparent change. This, the only spoiler for us, was that the beds were not in keeping with this lovely house and the price (over $1000 p/n) it commands. We feel an obligation to put this in the review as we did not sleep well, a critical thing. The main two person beds - king and two queen beds were too old or lacking quality support, meaning rolling together without intent. Firm but soft is the rule of the day for quality accommodation like this. None of our three couples slept well. A much more minor matter in comparison, but important, is that the BBQ was old and rusty and only one element provided any real heat. Impossible to cook steak. Don't let these things put you off a wonderful holiday, just make sure you can handle beds like these, or that they have been replaced. Enjoy
