Doris Jean is perfectly situated with very easy access atop a hill overlooking Piha beach which makes for a stunning view. The little honey burner is a great feature but make sure you bring your own firewood, newspaper, kindling and matches as these aren’t supplied. Waking up in the night and seeing the stars through the skylight was magic. An easy 5 minute drive down to Piha for the best coffee and a beach stroll. The shop also has delicious cabinet food. The eco toilet and very low bedroom ceiling take a bit of getting used to. Loved the cut fresh parsley in the windowsill and native greens and flora in the vases. All in all a great stay.
