Tricia is a wonderful host and her place is lovely. Very clean, bed soo comfortable, plush linens, perfect location right on the beach, quiet and cozy. The kitchen is small but very well equipped, we had no trouble preparing food. Tricia goes the extra mile to make you feel at home and provides so many extra goodies to help ease you into your holiday. I would absolutely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a beach vacation in/near Tauranga.
