Marilyn´s place is centrally located in Whitianga. We really loved this small town by the sea, even though it was rainy and off-season. So we would love to come back! We would not book Marilyn´s place again. She is an ok host and the place was clean! But the small garden house smelled of mold, the wi-fi was really slow and did not really work. Still it was an ok place to stay. Not too bad.
