Dave made everything necessary to make our stay enjoyable, and he was successful. We almost instantly felt at home when we arrived. Dave was a great host, very welcoming and knowledgeable. He kept his place sparkly clean and respected his guests' privacy. We enjoyed our chat with him and had great time in the peninsula thanks to his suggestions. He even kindly offered us a BBQ dinner featuring superb salmon. We highly recommend Dave's place to anyone who comes to Whitianga.
