Maureen’s rental apartment was a wonderful place to call home on my last couple of days in New Zealand. Their home is less than a block from the beach; you can see the ocean from the driveway.
She thoughtfully provides continental breakfast items, which were a great “plus” with which to start the day. The bed is comfortable, and I loved the way the sheets smelled. There is a separate living room/lounge area from the bedroom. There is a kitchenette with a refrigerator, microwave, toaster, and tea pot. Although there is not a sink for washing dishes, Maureen provides a container where you can place dirty dishes for her to wash in their kitchen upstairs.
Maureen and I also had a chance to talk, and she is a lovely and friendly person. Thank you for everything Maureen and Jeff!
