Tarina's place is in a great location. It is less than a 5 minute walk to New World Supermarket, and a fresh produce market. You can walk by the beach on your way to the Mount Maunaganui center where all the restaurants and shops are, for about half an hour to 40 minutes. Her house is clean and the room is cozy and you can see the mountain from your window. It is very comfortable and Tarina is welcoming and considerate.
