Restful Retreat
We found the place with ease and had no problem entering the house. It was clean and peaceful and 3 adults and 1 child had no complaints. We all slept like logs after our long drive. Thank you.

Not quite what we expected
Arrived at the property to find it was not pet friendly, not fenced so we couldnt quite relax and let our dog outside. One side there is a construction site with a builder living onsite in a cabin just metres from my car, our dog constantly wanted to go over there. On the other side we had neighbours arguing on the last day of our stay. The driveway was a bit tricky also, other than that it had everything we needed and we pushed through those things and enjoyed getting out and about in the area. Thanks.

Good Location for Short Beach Trip
Good location at Orere Point and easy access to the beach. Also an easy drive from Auckland. The place was very basic but clean (aside from a moldy squidgy left in the shower). We were given 2 half rolls of toilet paper for 3 days for 3 people. Had to buy extra ourselves. We also bought cleaning sponges for the kitchen as we were unsure how old were the ones that were provided (obviously used). Furnishings were a bit old with faded linen. The dining table was an outdoor plastic table. Communication with the host was great, really responsive and helpful.

Summer getaway
We had a nice stay at the property which was clean and stocked with basic provisions. The owner is quick to reply to queries which is helpful. The only hiccup was that there was no WiFi when we arrived. While we knew the data was not unlimited, the previous guest probably used it up already. Overall, it was a great stay.

Lovely location
We were pleased we could have our dogs with us. Michelle was very helpful and accommodating. We enjoyed walks to the beach, around the neighbourhood and in nearby regional parks.

Orere point stay
Great little house, very nice location and very clean and tidy, only hiccup we had we were not sent the code to the lockbox to get the key for the place so we had to sleep in the car from 3am when we got there. Otherwise than that I would definitely recommend this place, just make sure you get the code for the lockbox before you leave

Beautiful Orere Point
Perfect spot for our short getaway made even better because our dog could join us, the house had everything we needed. Beautiful Bays all along the coast and delicious local takeaways. Awesome communication with the owners.

Essentially as described
Pros - our 4 legged kids were welcomed - plastic outdoor dining suite - liked the old feel of the place -comfy lounge Cons - verandah stairs precarious, felt unsafe - plastic dining table (from outdoors) - dirty bathroom bin - bedroom2 dirty ripped net and no curtains, I used a black sheet to cover a window but the other window didn't have a curtain wire to do the same - lounge curtain repaired using plastic pegs - I'm glad I took my own linen instead of being charged to use their well worn, old and faded items - a little inexpensive effort would go a long way to uplift the ambience and indepth info on access to the beach and boat ramp would have been helpful

Short stay
Excellent property, but only facilities in the township was a dairy. Bring your own food, or you will have to drive back to Clevedon

Thankyou for allowing dogs! And great location.
This cottage was ideal for what we needed in order to access the bike park and regional parks and it is in such a friendly neighbourhood. The kitchen could have done with a deeper clean but the bathroom was clean. The main thing for us was that we could relax knowing it is dog friendly so thankyou for that.

No frills and exactly what we were after
Our stay was pleasant, the house is an older one - but well equipped with what you need including air con, wifi and a well stocked kitchen. Check in was a breeze as was communicating with the owner/manager. Thanks so much for having us!

Orere Point
The property was ideal for what we wanted. The only slight inconvenience was the replacement of the refrigerator by a bar freezer and the need to make ice to keep things cool in he chilly bin. We loved being at Orere Point.

Enjoyable stay
Property is a vintage era but this was expected from listing & photos. Kitchen area upgraded to 21st century, everything very clean & well appointed. Queen bed very comfortable. Possibly needed a 2nd single bed, listing said sleeps 5, but only 1 queen & 1 king single. Property owner advised me of this after booking. Great lady to deal with. Loved the place as you could relax. Quirky lounge, not very big but we were only there for a long weekend so more than adequate. We enjoyed our stay and area.
