We had a great stay! The Whitianga Ferry Terminal is in 20-30 minute walking distance as well as several restaurants. The neighbourhood was really quiet. Roomsand kitchen are great for 4 people, having one room for bags or a laundry rack really helps.
Julie was a great host and while she was away on our arrival, friendly neighbours immediately helped with the check-in. Julie even left us a bag of fresh feijoas as a fare-well gift :)
Despite the Feb 23 storms, Coromandel and Whitianga are well worth a visit!
