Stayed here for a night with my girlfriend..superb location right on the beach..literally fell asleep in the super comfy bed listening to the waves lapping on the shore. The hosts were so so nice and very respectful of our privacy and space. They even let us use their two kayaks and the stand up paddle board, 30sec walk onto the beach and into the water. Loved the genuine retro feel to the place. Everything you need for a nice lunch sitting out in the garden at your own table. Location perfect, close to ferry/ drive to Whitianga, Cathedral Cove, Hot Water Beach and Hahei. We would defo recommend this place to anyone.
