This is a great place and we're likely to return at some point in the future. It's so close to things we like: beaches, coastline, walking trails and also not too far from Takaka shops and restaurants. We loved the big living area in the house and the view of the beach is outstanding. Bathroom is updated with underfloor heating. The entrance gate is a little awkward to operate and there is no garden for the kids to run around. There is, however, a stunning beach just across the quiet road in front of the house and if needs be one can always leave the car on the roadside. Strongly recommend and thanks, Garry!
