Mark and Lorna are lovely and friendly. They met us on arrival and helped set up the umbrella by the pool so that we could shelter while the kids had their first of many swims in their amazing pool. Certainly a huge feature of the stay for those with water babies. The accommodation was superb - contemporary, clean and tidy - with all the required amenities to cook, clean and relax. Our hosts even called ahead of our arrival to ask what bread and milk we prefer and supplied it, along with bags of chips and lollies, tea and coffee, orange juice and other goodies, all included in the very reasonable price. The location itself was perfect for us, a short walk away from the shopping village, and equally close to the beach if that's your thing. If ever we are up in Auckland again, I hope Mark and Lorna are not occupied!
