Studio 9 is the perfect bolt hole for visiting Whangarei. My husband and I booked in for two nights on our honeymoon and used it as a base to explore the Waipoua forest and the Tutukaka area where we went diving. The Studio had everything we needed, including lovely soaps in the bathroom and a fridge with milk for tea and coffee. Our hosts were lovely with fast responses and great recommendations on local places to eat. They even added a couple of extra touches to help us celebrate our honeymoon which was so thoughtful! I’d definitely recommend Stuido 9 - you won’t regret it!
