We enjoyed our stay in this comfy, large studio apartment. We had some difficulty controlling the water temp in the shower and the cooking utensils were somewhat sparse. We also were given only two towels and there were no extra blankets available; although, in fairness, we never mentioned this to our hosts. We loved the pool and the BBQ. We were disappointed that the tide was out most of the time during our 4 day stay and the unit was surrounded more by mud than by water. However, we still enjoyed the peacefulness of the estuary and watching the birds out on the water. The unit was comfortable and met our needs for a short stay. The unit is also very well located with Davenport, the Ferry to Auckland and a Countdown grocery store close by, but not within walking distance.
