We booked into Carol's at the last minute as we were enjoying our time in Whitianga so much. Her place is absolutely amazing – the perfect spot just across the road from a stunning beach, with a beautiful garden and generous sized rooms. She wasn't home when we arrived but told us everything we needed to know so we could check in without any hassle. The breakfast the next morning was out of this world – her homemade feijoa and ginger jam is a dangerously moreish. We would recommend Carol's to any friends and family – and hope to visit again one day!
