Absolute legends, we would stay with Allie & her wonderful family any time! They are very accommodating & came back to us really quickly if there was anything we needed or any questions that we had. We loved the apartment for the mountain & sea views. As an added bonus the apartment had been recently painted & had all new appliances (fully sized fridge/freezer, stove & oven, dishwasher). The apartment has exclusive use of a double garage with direct entrance to the apartment, which we definitely enjoyed during some of the stormy spring weather we had! We only took a point off for location as we like to walk & it is not really possible to walk anywhere from there, but Oakura village is only a 4 min drive and Tapuae beach access is even closer. We are a family of 4 (kids are 8 & 5 years old). This apartment was perfect for us, but would also recommend for anyone looking for a break in a more rural setting. Friendly, relaxed hosts, friendly dog, friendly horses, friendly chickens!
