Andrea was a wonderful host, very perceptive with great attention to detail. She gave amazing tips on which route to take and where to stop over for lunch. We were warmly welcomed with a delicious bottle of wine and more tips on what to do in Ahuriri. Ahuriri is an outlying suburb of Napier with its own Art Deco gems. There are several excellent restaurants and coffee shops within walking distance including the highly rated Three Doors Up restaurant. The apartment itself feels like a house - it is well equipped with anything from kitchen utensils to bathrobes. Highly recommended to fellow travelers.
