Great location, easy drive to the Mount and to central Tauranga, great communication from Kelly the host and easy check in and check out!
The house had a few things that were a little disappointing such as cleanliness (ceiling fan was covered in dust, there was old food still on chopping boards in the kitchen and the pool was in need of a good clean), furniture (the beds were quite saggy and there were broken chairs on the deck outside, maintenance (one of the bedrooms had a hole in the floor that needs to be repaired and the spa pool was malfunctioning). All things that could easily be remedied to improve the stay for future guests.
On a more positive note the house is well stocked with everything you need, including plenty of kitchen appliances and utensils, basic food (spices, sugar etc), laundry supplies, towels & even an ice maker!
Overall we had a good stay and the house had everything we needed. Kelly was easy to communicate with and tried to remedy things where she could (like supplying more dishwashing liquid, trying to fix the spa pool etc), with just a few improvements this could be an exceptional place to relax and discover Tauranga.
