Loved this villa. It was modernized in all the right places. Great options for sleeping arrangements with the bigger groups, and the ensuites were a bonus as well. We loved getting the fire going in the evenings and eating around the kitchen island together. Another thing that we really appreciated was how clean the bbq was - with many different people using these they're often not very clean. This one however, was awesome to use.
I would totally recommend this place to anyone who finds themselves in the Hawkes Bay area. We would be happy to return some day.
