We had a great stay at Villa Reve in Mangonui. Annette was a great host who always answered our messages promptly & was very welcoming and friendly. The villa is beautifully designed & decorated and is so comfortable that you can just fully relax. The deck is massive & is sun-soaked all day. Mangonui is close to some of the best beaches we've seen in NZ. It is a great place to base yourself up in the Northland & I highly recommend it.
