Alec's place has exceeded my expectations. Location is unbeatable! Within arm's length from the beach and all the main shops at the Mount. Alec was a fantastic host! He gave us great tips and we had great conversations with him! The apartment had everything we needed. He was even nice enough to lend us some ingredients for the meals we prepared there. The bed was super comfortable and everything you needed was inside the apartment! I highly recommend Alec's place to anyone who wants to stay at the Mount/ Tauranga area!
