We absolutely loved this house. The location is superb with easy access to the fascinating beach at Red Beach and all the restaurants, cafes and bars at Orewa. The fact that it's spread over three floors and lots of different areas makes it great with lots of options to choose from on where to hang out. We loved the pool, spa, and pool table the most plus used a few games from the cupboard. The kayak was also great although not easy to get down to the beach - we recommend taking a car with roof bars and straps for that. The kitchen was very well stocked and the extra bottle of bubbles as a gift was very nice, as were the christmas decs. There were a few minor things to improve (hence four star, not five) and I've given the host feedback about those and am confident they will address them so haven't bothered listing them.
