The accommodation is located near the beach with lots of eating options. Very spacious and felt so homely and comfy, with nice detailed touches here and there for a pleasant and warm stay. It is only 30 minutes by bus to Auckland CBD area and downtown pier if you are not keen to drive. Liza was so kind and flexible to our needs due to our very late flight which we appreciated from the bottom of our hearts. Our favourite morning spot is the dining table area near the backyard where the warm sunshine comes in.
