This studio was a perfect location for Taipa beach and exploring the area, including Cape Reinga and Waitangi Treaty Ground, Russell etc. The interiors of the studio was beautiful and was well kitted with kitchen utensils, options for breakfast and clean linen. It was clean enough but the shelves were a little dusty. I loved that they had a worm bin and a recycling bin. Check-in was easy - we were left to our own devices and was welcomed with an email prior to our stay. Thank you!
