Fitzroy Hideaway
Great dog friendly property. Comfortable bed, fantastic shower with fab pressure! Plenty of firewood for the fire, just had to buy kindling. Access to main door was not close to car, not ideal if its raining on arrival or departure. Clean and tidy. Location was quiet and handy to CBD. Appreciate that we could bring our dog on holiday.

Amazing spot
I can’t rate this property highly enough. My partner, 2 yr old and small dog needed somewhere central to stay during our visit to Taranaki. Not only did we find that but the property was incredibly clean, spacious and light. But it was the small details like the fluffiest towels (& plenty of them), comfortable beds & linen), hallway storage full of games and toys, child’s playhouse, 2 bathrooms, clothes drying rack, plenty of kitchen utensils etc… Communication was also really prompt especially when I had questions. Thank you so much we had a great time exclamation exploring Taranaki and it was so nice to come home to relax at different parts of the day.

Ideal accommodation
This accommodation was perfect for our group. The bedrooms were a great size and had everything we needed. Bathroom was lovely and the water pressure was excellent. Having a separate toilet was also useful. Being fully fenced meant our puppies could run around outside to their hearts content. Looking forward to staying here again!!

Great place for a family holiday!
Very clean property. Well presented with excellent location and amenities. Very private. Sandra is an excellent hostess. The pikelets and jam upon arrival were a nice touch and much appreciated. Beds were comfortable and property had everything we needed. Only complaint is the tenants upstairs who stomped around at all hours, had loud conversations late at night. We were careful not to disturb them but it wasn’t reciprocated unfortunately.

Thanks Sandra, we loved your spot. It was very quiet and well equipped. The beds were very comfy and good wifi. We could walk to a couple of bakeries, enjoyed breakfast at the Hub, and loved Fitzroy beach.

Great location
The property is well placed and located close to all amenities and the beach. Air Conditioning would be a positive investment and improve the living conditions given that the humidity in the area is high. As a plus the entrance is private and we had the ability to circulate air within the living areas. Further to this they provide fans in the rooms which were great. The Wifi is average so if you have kids who stream its a challenge. Given my feedback I would recommend this property to anyone travelling to New Plymouth. It provides great value.

We had a very pleasant stay. Everything there that we needed. Floors must be thin as could hear every step (stomp) that the tenant upstairs took.

Lovely place to stay..but make sure your prepared to be quite by 9pm it was stipulated when booking?
Over it was a lovely place to stay very clean and well communicated...the only issued we had was that by 9pm we had to keep the noise down we had a few games and laughing alot the games were so funny anyway it was spoilt by people living upstairs stomping thete feet for us to quite down our laughter.. which was annoying...and having the owner email me to to keep the noise down when all we were doing was enjoying our night and laughing.. l think if your only going to be there for one night you can at least enjoy your stay..l know for next time not to get accommodation with a dwelling above with tenants living above you...

Lovely apartment
Manager fantastic. Communication great and very welcoming. Left biscuits which were welcomed. Apartment much bigger than expected. Lovely and clean and had what we needed. Beds comfy. Shower fantastic. Location great. Only downside was apartment upstairs. Woke us each morning at 5.30 and left us guessing gym equipment being used each night as house shook and very loud. We probably annoyed them to with tantrums from toddler. Not much sound proofing.

Sandra was excellent to communicate with. Checked in to make sure everything was OK regularly, and when our group had a small request (a drying rail) Sandra had it sorted in a matter of hours. The house was lovely, exactly as per listing. Well set up for small or large groups and we appreciated the toiletries in the bathroom. Sure hope to be back, thank you 😊

Lovely holiday home. Quiet neighbourhood. Everything we needed was there to make for a very comfortable stay. We even lit the fire (everything was provided) as it was a wet dismal weekend so had a lovely cosy Saturday relaxing. The place feels very spacious with a lovely indoor / outdoor area under cover.

great pet friendly place
This place was well set up for socializing, great lawn, safely fenced for pets and small children. We had a small issue with a rusty frying pan the first night, but I emailed the property manager and we had a brand new one by the next afternoon. I found the beds slightly hard for my taste, however as everything else was so good, I will be back. It was a handy location to the beach, shops and everything you need. Highly recommend!

Christmas in The Naki
This property was perfect for our family to stay in 4 nights over Christmas. Great location, close to the beach & we even walked into town. The subdivision at the back of the property was perfect for the kids to ride their new scooters around. The hosts were extremely helpful...Definitely would recommend 👍
