The house is located close to a nice park, relatively close to take-aways and convenience stores. The whereabouts are absolutely stunning (which is expected from NZ). City bus stop is not far from the place, if you have no car. If you have one - you may go explore the beaches as there are plenty of them nearby and they are beautiful.
Nellie and Vlado are very kind, easy going and hospitable hosts, who's always ready to help. Their children are lovely.
I was really enjoying their company during my stay.
