Great house in a quiet and safe residential area. The air conditioning and the rooftop deck with hammocks and seaview were so appreciated. Everything was very clean, well stocked, and the WiFi worked great. There is a market next door and a playground two lots away. Sadly, even though we were close to the water, the swimming beaches (and restaurants) were all the way in the other end of the South Island. We made the roughly mile-long trip with the bicycles provided with the house almost every day. Celvin even lent us his kid’s own bicycle for our daughter! He was very reachable and we saw him regularly as we passed by the firehouse and around town. It was a wonderful experience for my 7yo to see a different way of life where children can be out all hours of the day on the streets.
