You will never want to leave. The view alone is unique to everything Wellington/Lyall Bay has to offer. Check in was smooth and the place is stylish and has more than enough room for guests. The washer was a nice touch at the end of a long trip. Comfortable temperature, especially in the outdoor hot tub. You definitely need to take advantage of a nice soak while star gazing. Only 5 minutes walk to a bus line leading right to Wellington CBD made it so I could move out to the Bay to relax and experience another side of Wellington while still having access to the city less than 25 minutes away. Thanks for the thoughtful recommendations for local restaurants (I ate at The Botanist twice, only a 15 minute walk on the beach and so good!). Absolutely would stay here again. Thanks so much!
