Little Italy is part of an amazing historic Italian house - a rare style in NZ. Host Steve was very easy company, that perfect blend of friendly yet unobtrusive. We unfortunately didn't meet Antonia, as she was away while we stayed, but she still kept in touch with us to make sure everything was OK ! Harry the sweet old pup helped out too. :)
Superb location - quiet yet close to everything. The walking route to the marina is a nice stroll to downtown via the 'Coathanger' bridge - we saw starfish, and stingrays on our way!
Little Italy is compact but comfy. You also have access to a dining area, lounge, and the huge sunny deck with comfy outdoor furniture & views across the harbour & down the valley (as well as your own private patio).
All in all a great spot. Thanks for everything Steve and Antonia ( & say woof to Harry from us).
