This is a special place to stay - a huge loft right across from Mauao itself - a short walk to the main beach or to pilot bay, and plenty of places to eat nearby. I knew there wasnt a kitchen, so I took meals that could be heated in the microwave - the fridge is tiny, but it held easily food for two days for three of us. Plenty of crockery and glasses. The loft is furnished beautifully, the outside is so pretty and well maintained and we felt very very lucky to have such a gorgeous place and at very good value compared to other properties near by. Off road parking was also a huge bonus.
