Great communication and helpful information. Place was lovely and cosy for our family (kids 3 and 5) and my parents visiting from UK. Ideal location, close to estuary for sand play and kayaking and a short drive to the main beach (excellent for body boarding as tide going out for little ones). Mangawhai museum kept us entertained during the rain. The mangawhai activity zone with skate park, playground and pump track also close by and a good option for the kids. Plenty to do even in the changeable weather! Great holiday all round. Children have eagerly requested to revisit already. Thank you!
