We had a one night stay at Cooks Beach Guest Suite arriving fairly late so we took the ferry ($7 return per person, takes a few minutes) over to Whitianga and had a nice Italian pasta meal at Dino's Bar which we enjoyed. It was a nice thing to do after driving for most of the day, and there were limited food options in Cooks Beach Itself. Lisa's Airbnb is a sleepout unit behind the garage in the yard of her home. It was nice to have a private access and own bathroom. Breakfast items were provided to make our own breakfast - cereal, milk, bread, butter and spreads plus tea and coffee ingredients. Top tip - don't sit outside and take your eyes off your toast for a second or the seagulls will steal it, as my husband discovered!! The wifi worked fine on all devices except my laptop which is older and the router was not set up for it. The Airbnb is reasonably priced and was fine for a one night stay. Some people might find the toilet quite snug, and the shower though adequate is not that powerful. The room would benefit from having a normal height small table inside instead of the unit on the back wall as there is only the bed to sit on inside, though there is some low wooden furniture outside. Having said that the price represents good value for money. It is in a good location a few minutes walk from Cooks Beach and a short drive to beautiful beaches of Lonely Bay, Cathedral Cove and Hot Water Beach. Lisa and her family were delightful, her communication was excellent and they could not have been more welcoming.
