Helen's guest house is absolutely wonderful! It's modern, spacious, and had everything we needed for a restful stay. Helen was lovely to deal with and made check-in and check-out a breeze. The guest house was absolutely spotless with all the creature comforts to make it feel like a home away from home. The breakfast items and milk in the fridge were very thoughtful too. I loved the view of the garden and the outdoor area was an unexpected bonus. Very easy to find, and just a stones throw from the beach and the Ahuriri cafes, bars and restaurants. Highly recommend staying at Helen's.
