Summary: Our family of four (kids 2 & 5) really enjoyed our stay here for a whole month. Diane was very friendly, easy to contact, flexible (we extended our stay) & helpful (she loaned us her car when we locked the keys in ours :o ) The space is cosy, has style and can hold a crowd. Lots of sheets, towels, bedding, pillows available. Well equipped kitchen. We had my parents over to stay and all six of us had ample room. A perfect beach holiday spot down a quiet cul-de-sac. Great access to the beach (at the end of the garden), walking distance to local shops and cafes. Vinyards all around. Short drive to Havelock North, Hastings, Napier. We enjoyed the superb Hastings Farmer's Market on Sundays, Art after dark in Napier, driving quiet country roads to Waimarama beach. Thank you Di!

Summary: We are a family of 2 adults and 3 children and stayed at this property for 5 weeks. Overall, it was enjoyable. The house is warm and cozy and had everything we needed. This is a great space for shorter term stays as there are a few negatives such as the layout of the house (one room does not have a door for privacy), lack of storage, and shared spaces such as a clothesline, and BBQ area. The towels and linen were old and thin. Pillows could be updated. There is no clothes dryer which we found inconvenient for the cooler weather. The neighbor's dogs bark consistently during the day which put a damper on our stay. I would recommend asking specifically what spaces will be available to you during your stay as the photos in the description are of the entire property which is also occupied by the owner for her personal and business use. With that being said, the owner was very considerate of our privacy, and I even booked a healing massage with her which was a real treat! Communication with the owner was also great and very friendly. The location of this property is close to Cape Kidnappers and some spectacular wineries.
