Pia calls this a beachfront apartment ? Any closer to the beach and you would be sleeping on it. It is just staggeringly beautiful in location and the first mornings sunset was incredible, just what was required after the previous days jet lag. Walking along the gorgeous beach you find friendly chatty locals giving excellent recommendations and the houses on the beachfront all the way along are out of this world.
The apartment itself was explained in huge details on arrival by the wonderful Pia and you are left wandering the apartment in awe at everything that is provided inside, seriously not one stone is left unturned as to what any traveller would require, its very impressive and a lot of thought, love and care has obviously gone into creating the space.
The bed was incredibly comfortable and with a mix of hard and soft pillows so again just catering to every traveller, the shower is powerful and like the rest of the bathroom just immaculate and welcoming, the couches are perfect to sink into and just look at the view, and goodness views anywhere do not get any better, the astonishingly well fitted out kitchen has every appliance you could need at all.
We saw Pia most days, first day was a surprise as she sang Happy Birthday to me from the beach 🤣 and that’s how the communications started and continued for 2 weeks, just an absolute joy and pleasure to see everyday and we looked forward to seeing her wide smile, her humour, her genuine interest and friendliness. My first trip to NZ and Pia was a big part of it I am delighted to say 👏😊 We both felt privileged to have met such a delightful person.
I could write a novel about how amazing this place is and if anyone is looking for inspiration to write a novel then book this apartment and you will be filled with inspiration and calm.
Thank you so much again for absolutely everything Pia, it was beyond perfection, as are you 😍
