We came for the Hawkes Bay Marathon and stayed here for 3 nights. Michael and Denise were excellent hosts, easily contactable and gave us great local tips in the area. We found everything we needed in the place and exactly as described. It was the perfect home away from home, the kitchen/ fridge was well stocked with basic supplies we needed, we were able to make our own meals and just relaxed. The views were amazing all the way from the living room to the bedroom. We had the privacy of our own floor and entrance, including access to a hot tub just next to the room. We would definitely recommend this place!
