Rachel's place is a clean and comfortable unit with a well-equipped kitchen and a lovely view towards Mount Maunganui, which we enjoyed each morning with our coffee. We particularly enjoyed the dartboard in the evenings. The two beaches nearby are within walking distance and suitable for swimming. Communication and check in was a breeze and we knew our hosts were available nearby if we needed anything. The local area seemed peaceful, and the cost was very reasonable, especially considering the busy time of year.
