We FULLY recommend staying at Cole's place. Cole is a wonderful, creative, always staying positive and smiling host! Communication with her was very smooth, her house is incredibly clean and very stylish. What's more you have a big garden with jacuzzi which you can use and relax in the evening. You just feel GOOD here. If you need any tips or a bit of the kiwi local feeling, Cole is always ready to recommend places or share some amazing stories. Her house is 5 mins from a beautiful beach, 5 mins from a local shop, 15 mins from a supermarket plus many other places good for walking. If you would like to visit CBD it is better to have a car or take a bus but for a lot-of-walking lovers (like us) it wasn't a problem and we were enjoying a lot. We will definitely come back.
