The location is to die for and the view of Piha Beach is amazing from the house. Be warned that the hike up to the house is no joke. If anyone in your party has a bad back or knee problems, I would strongly suggest against this property. We had two kids (2 years old and 7) and the two year old was a pain since we had to carry him up and down every time leaving or going up to the house. If we had to do it again we wouldn't go with our 2 year old, it was a lot of work. Otherwise, the property was great and the host was very responsive and helpful.
