Great place to escape and enjoy the sounds of the ocean at your door step. The location is wonderful with a great local bunch of shops across the road with everything you need even a pub. The cottage is well set up & very clean, we would have liked to enjoy the proximity of the ocean however with more suitable outdoor seating or a nice little place to relax that the french doors open up to the view otherwise the setting is great. Vesna is very responsive and left us to enjoy our stay in peace, we loved the little welcome chocolates. All in all a great place to base yourself while exploring the Hawke's Bay.
