Everything was perfect - the home was exactly as described, with stunning views in the most beautiful beach town.
The area is surrounded by gorgeous walks in the forest and along the coastline, and the trees are full of native birds. It really feels like paradise in Maraetai!
As for the house itself, it's light, warm, comfortable and the bed is so comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with every thing we needed for our 10 day stay, and the WiFi connection was perfectly good enough for us to keep up with our day-to-day work from home tasks.
Lisa and Dughall were such kind and considerate hosts. They checked in frequently to make sure we had what we needed, without ever imposing in any way, and the communication was excellent.
I can't recommend this AirBnB enough, and I hope we get to come stay again sometime in the future!
