John’s place was a good spot for a few days in Mangawhai. It rained the whole time and the place was very comfortable to spend time in, which was a relief. It’s quite small but very well kitted out and modern. I will say that the place is a guesthouse that sits in very close proximity to the main house - which was a bit of a surprise, but I think the listing has since been updated. John was very friendly and communicative, easy to deal with. Very close to the beach, which was great. All in all I would recommend!
