Better than a 5 star hotel! You will love everything about your stay in Maungatapu! Hugh and Jenny are absolutely amazing! They are very helpful and always willing to go that extra mile for you. The house is kept spotless and feels like home. I stayed for about a month doing shiftwork with the Ambulance Service in Tauranga. This house was so peaceful and quiet I had no problems sleeping during the day between nightshifts. There is a beautiful relaxing courtyard outside which was nice to sit and read a book in/eat outside. A short walk down the road is an amazing cafe and shops. Perfect location- so central to many things in the Bay of Plenty. I honestly cannot recommend this place and its hosts enough! I will definately be back.
