We are a couple who visited Tauranga for a 50th Birthday and stayed overnight at 'Shells on Ngatai". We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with Gloria and Nigel who were fantastic hosts, welcoming and very friendly that we felt at home. Gloria was so very helpful with all our needs, excellent communication after booking and she even dropped us off to our Party. The room is spotlessly clean, , exactly what you see in the photos, very comfortable bed and we really liked the little seating area. Everything we needed was supplied and we felt at home as far as using the bathroom and kitchen. The breakfast was wonderful, toast, cereal, yoghurt, fruit juice and tea and coffee. There is a Countdown five minutes walk and shops, takeaways and a bar/restaurant are close too. Staying here was excellent value for money.
Thank you Gloria & Nigel for your wonderful hospitality and for sharing your home with us. We would happily recommend to friends and family and we would definitely stay here again when in Tauranga.
