We have just spent a brilliant Christmas at the Shaka Shack during our trip around New Zealand and only wish we could have stayed a bit longer.
The Shack itself is situated in the backyard away from the road with its own entrance and gate so feels very private. Easy to find, with flawless check in and situated a couple minute walk from the beach, as well as about a 10 minute drive to The Mount. Plenty of tasty restaurants close by and within walking distance of shops/supermarkets.
Beautifully decorated, immaculately clean and stylish with homely and beachy touches, it was the perfect place to spend our beach Christmas.
The bed - incredibly comfy, the shower - roasting hot and powerful and the wi-fi - super fast, what’s not to love? The Shack comes equipped with fridge, toaster and kettle with basic crockery and glassware. We took our own small BBQ and cooked outside on the Patio for Christmas Dinner. The TV comes with Netflix which was brilliant for watching Christmas movies from the bed and Sophie had left a note of things to do around the area and good places to eat too!
Though we never met Sophie due to her being away with her family for Christmas, communication was brilliant and should we have had any issues, her parents were close by to help out.
Would highly recommend the Shaka Shack to anyone! Thanks for a brilliant stay :)
