I highly recommend staying at Bernadette and Rainer's house. We had a great time there, the hosts were very hospitable. The room was very clean, as well as the bathroom. They recommended us to visit some places which were nice, worth it to be seen. We also had a full breakfast, so you can easily find something you like. At the end of our stay, we spend some time laughing about lots of things. We are very thankful for the opportunity to stay here and if it would be possible for us to come back to Whakatane, we would be very lucky to reach Bernadette and Rainer 😊
