Maureen and her partner are very kind and considerate hosts and I really enjoyed our conversations. If you want some privacy, you basically have the whole ground level for yourself, if you want to socialize or need their advice, Maureen and Antoine are very welcoming and talkative. Their house is lovely and the location is in the heart of Tauranga. I would have loved to stay longer than just a single night, so I can recommend staying here for sure.
