A peaceful retreat

This was a great place to stay for 2 people. Very peaceful and quiet. The unit is separated from the main house by the garage so it also quite private as well. Really enjoyed our stay.

Great space

This is presumably a granny flat and as such it is spacious and has all the features of a home. Garden connects to the local walkway so great if, like us, you have a dog. Highly recommended.

A slice of paradise

This lovely accommodation was central to everything yet still quiet & peaceful. Backing onto a reserve meant that a morning walk to the Papamoa Beach was a must. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants a escape spot with all amenities. Looking forward to the opportunity to stay again

Overnight in Papamoa

Diane was very friendly to both me and my little dog, Poppy. The accomodation was beautiful and very convenient to going to the beach. The house is next door to a reserve. The only negarive was I found the bed very soft.
