The bnb and the view are even better in person than in pictures. It was a very relaxing stay away from the fast-paced life in Auckland. The cottage is a short walk from parking, but the beach and the very comfortable bnb makes the short walk worth it. It’s also not too far from the City so it’s easy to get to the store if you forgot to buy something. If you’ve got no car and will be using public transportation, there is a bus stop 5 minutes away and also a train station nearby. We had an amazing stay and communication with Janine was very easy. Will surely be back here if ever I’m going back to Wellington. 😊
