The apartment was quiet and clean and in a beautiful location. The view of the beach is mainly from the bedroom but you get a nice glimpse from the kitchen table as well. It’s small, I’d say two adults max for optimum comfort, but our adult daughter joined us at the last minute and we made it work. It was quite nice to have an efficiency kitchen for breakfast and we made use of the washer for our clothes as well (note that there is no dryer but rather a rack for hanging things dry - that seems to be common in NZ). Overall this was a great base for our day trips to Abel Tasman Park and Golden Bay.
