Everything was perfect (really perfect, not just "airbnb-perfect"). Good communication beforehand, easy to find, easy to check-in, the most lovely view of the sea and the beach, comfortable beds, extremely clean and well-maintained house, a cool pink 60-s retro bathroom in mint condition, a balcony, car parking just outside the house, no close neighbours. The best was the warm welcome from Jo and Marcel, and all their good advice about what to see, which boat tours that was the best, and how to pick the "pipis" in the shallow water. We had fantastic 5 days at the Retreat in Paihia!
