This place is one of our best airbnb stays so far! Rachel is an excellent communicator, and so booking with her and asking a few questions before arrival went smoothly. Rachel met us when we arrived, gave us a tour of the apt, and answered a few questions. The apartment has the most spectacular view of the water, through the living room, bedroom, and front deck! Stairs go from the driveway down to the beach. The kitchen was very well appointed, and stocked with a great continental breakfast. The bed was very comfortable, and the bedding very nice. The apartment was spotless. Rachel's hospitality made us felt so very welcome and comfortable in a new city.
One last note: If you are planning to visit Wellington but think this may be too far away, we found it was not. There is a Metlink station walking distance from Rachel's house, and driving was not difficult. In fact, we found it an interesting spot to stay as there is a lot of good hiking in the surrounding area.
