Cant say enough about the Kia Orana Villas. Met by the General Manager, Sane, as we stepped out of the car, and who also farewelled us as we departed. Lucky to stay for 19 nights so we became family. Fantastic staff all round who shared their lives and families with us. Felt like home, not a hotel.
Awesome pool area, which was never crowded. Great breakfast spread each day to peruse prepared by Lai, while being visited by the cat, Smoocher, for cuddles each morning.
Any minor issues or requests were quickly attended too.
Loved our spacious one bedroom villa. Was great to have a washing machine and dryer, expresso coffee machine and of course the Weber BBQ. Super comfy bed. We were sad to leave it behind.
Was a fantastic way to relax and avoid the hussle and bustle of a large resort. Close to the airport and town, with easy access to the beach at Blackrock, and the cross Island walk access is just down the road.
Can't say enough really. We will definitely be back.
