Graham and Lea are lovely hosts, very welcoming and helpful and really know how to make you feel at home. Kowhai Apartment is a spacious, comfortable and stylish unit with thoughtful touches like fresh baked bread and homemade cookies on arrival, as well as the makings of breakfast. We enjoyed a very relaxing 2 days there, and would recommend Kowhai Apartment as the perfect place to stay if you're going to Whangerei.
