We had a great time staying with Beverly and Bill. Their home is in a really nice neighborhood close to the shopping mall and restaurants and just one km from the beach. We really enjoyed the breakfast with a very nice view in their garden and to have our own living room to read a book or watch some TV. As we didn't had a car we could use their bicycles to explore Taurangi and Mt Manganui. We definitely recommend staying with Beverly and Bill as theiy are great hosts and have a lovely home.
