We felt at home right away. The space was well-laid-out, thoughtfully furnished, bright and comfortable. Kim was easily contactable during our stay and very helpful and flexible. I only wish we'd had more time there! It would have been good to properly utilise the pristine kitchen or perhaps have a seafood barbecue in the private courtyard.
It was about a half-hour walk around the headland in to Napier itself, though the studio was minutes' walk to Ahuriri shops and cafes. On a bike or in our hire car the trip to and from town was very short indeed.
This was hands-down our favourite accommodation on our whole NZ trip. Thanks for everything Kim!
