Well, five stars all around for this property. Stayed from 8/2 to 12/2/18 and couldn't have picked a better spot. The owner, Paul, was easy to communicate with and all went well from check-in to check-out. The property is so well presented and the view was amazing with beautiful sunrises - so got plenty of photos. The beach is accessed by a walkway directly across from the block of units and we just about had the beach to ourselves. Each day was hmmmmm....where will we put up the umbrella today???? We did not venture far as we were all happy - 5 adults and one 7 month old baby - to just stay around the unit beaching, reading etc. We had a lovely dinner at the Benchmark - a pub just and short walk from the unit. Didn't watch TV once and we also had a ban on phone and electronic gadgets each night which led to some epic games of UNO. The property is well equipped with all necessary kitchenware and appliances and plenty of space for our group. Only one thing - there are a number of small windows high up the walls in the family area and in bedrooms 2 and 3 and once the sun comes up there's no chance of a sleep-in. Also the lounge area and main bedroom have roller blinds but maybe some blackout blinds would be a good idea to avoid the early morning wakeup. However, as previously stated, the early wake ups got us some magical sunrise photos. There is really nothing to fault and I'm happy to spread the word about Paul and Anita's unit. Thankyou for making it available. Key collection and drop off was easy and Debbie, Alison and Kathy at Hawks Bay Beach Realty were helpful and pleasant. Thanks again for a perfect few days away and for providing perfect weather too. What more could you ask for? Glenda.
