This spot is a wee spot of magic that and I am SO glad that I chose to stay at Henry's - Henry is really friendly and easygoing and has fantastic local tips - where to go, where not to go, the local history, as well as the best times for wandering along the beach. He even lent me a wee shovel to go and dig myself a hot pool on Ocean Beach in Kawhia (it happened that low tide coincided with a stunner sunset so was a real treat - on my birthday too!)
My little dog was welcome to come too and there's a huge beach for them to explore!
The unit is comfortable, has everything you need, a good shower and a comfy bed. There is no bathroom soap or hand towels as a few people have mentioned so remember to bring that with you.
Aotea Harbour is such a gem of a place - there is limited cell reception and mobile data is only available in patches so you simply have to slow down and not spend your time looking at a screen. It's a few minutes to Kawhia, or a few steps to Aotea Harbour.
Thanks so much for having me, Henry! I had a really lovely stay!
