Marilyn's place is so tranquil, it feels remote and away from the hustle and bustle but in reality it is located just out of Kaiwaka which is both lovely in its own right and a hub to get to other areas like Mangawhai heads. The view was stunning, the room was lovely and clean with everything we could need, including breakfast items which we thought was a great touch. Marilyn herself was very warm and welcoming. All and all I would highly recommend this quiet little slice of paradise.
