Sue and Graham are wonderful hosts in a wonderful part of New Zealand. The place is very nice and quiet and still only a 5 minute walk away from the beach. Everything is well kept and clean and you feel at home the moment you step into the apartment. Nice touch is to find some items for breakfast in the fridge upon arrival.
The weather wasn't great when we visited so no change to take out the bikes and/or kayak which are available for your use. But we still did manage the enjoy some sun on the beach and walk up to Cathedral Cove. It is also nice to take the little ferry to Whitianga for lunch or dinner. Sue and Graham will be able to give you recommendations.
