We have travelled all over the world and I can honestly say this is the best Airbnb that we have ever stayed in. Maree and her husband are awesome hosts and very friendly. We had the chance to meet Maree and her husband by chance as they were cleaning up after Cyclone Gabrielle. They gave us great local knowledge and the history of the area. After entering the cottage we were astounded by the finer touches such as the snacks on the coffee table; the array of breakfast cereals and coffee on the kitchen bench; and the breakfast hamper in the fridge that included bottled spring water, orange juice, milk, bread and conserves. There was also lots of information on the town of Paeroa, the surrounding areas, and the west and Coromandel Coasts. Our first thought was that our hosts take pride in the there cottage and local area. It was a great base to see the best of what New Zealand has to offer. We will definitely stay when we are back in New Zealand again. Well done Kerrie.
