"Location was perfect. A hop, skip & jump across the dunes to the waves of Tirohanga beach. Bach was lovely. Small but comfortable. Retro furniture which reminded me of my grandparents place. Only thing I would recommend is booking thru the bush to bay site as the links don’t work very well thru the home away site. "
