All in all, our stay was very enjoyable! Location is great (just a few minutes drive to Mt Maunganui north and to Papamoa south). There were just a few (admittedly minor) things that bothered us: there were no issues with cleanliness but the rug in the living room smelled of “wet dog” (and it’s rather worrying when your children play on the floor); there’s a general lack of plugs (none in the bathroom, e.g.); there’s a lack of light in the kitchen (the only light is in the middle of the kitchen, so behind you when you cook or clean the dishes; the door to the garage that has no lock, so it felt uncomfortable knowing that anyone can come in.
