WOW we have stayed at quite a few Airbnb's... Maryann and Russell take top position easily. From the warm welcome, fresh eggs, jams etc supplied to the goodbye treat this wonderful couple go over and above to make your stay comfortable and stress free. If you are looking for a quiet sanctuary up a valley where you here morkporks at night and only a 5 min drive to 'down town' Whangamata then you MUST stay here. There is a steep set of stairs to be climbed to access your upstairs studio so keep in mind with suitcases. We would definitely stay again.
