Photos do not do justice to the views from this property. The views are simply drop dead gorgeous. Anne and Henry are amazing hosts! They were very friendly, always available if we had any questions but did not disturb our privacy otherwise. The Spa and the pool were very relaxing as well. Anne and Henry provided us with everything we might have needed for the stay, even spades for Hot Water Beach. Would love to stay here again. For completeness sake of the review, the views aren't directly visible from inside the studio and you had to step out to see them but that did not spoil our stay in anyway and it just encouraged us to sit outside or walk around in the neighborhood. Whitianga was a nice little town as well with some good restaurants and walking areas.
