This was our 4th stay at the property. The hosts provide everything you need for a comfortable stay, and the pool and spa are always a great way to relax whilst soaking in the quiet and the breath-taking view. We love this place, and we will be booking again soon for next year.

Like a tropical resort

This house is in a very beautiful place and has every convenience. Swimming in the pool or spa and looking out on that view is a real privilege. We were grateful to be able to bring our dog. Outstanding.

The Perfect Getaway

What can I say! Everything about our stay was amazing! The house itself is gorgeous ( photos do not do it justice) lovely and clean, and the pool was fantastic! Great fenced in area for our dog, and very private. the views are simply stunning! The bays that are a short drive away are also fabulous ! We enjoyed our weekend so much, we have booked again for twice as long next year!

Brilliant house to chill out and relax

Awesome house with magical views, after long days fishing and exploring the coast relaxing in the spa was perfect. A little tight for boat trailers to get into the drive but we fitted a 5.5 and 7.3m without trouble. We will be back for sure. Thank you

Beautiful & relaxing harbour and rural views with the luxury of a nicely kept property & house

We love this place. We stayed 1 year ago for only 3 days and we all said, it was not enough. This time we stayed for a week. We like the house & views so much that we hope to come back here yearly for a week. It has everything we need to have an escape from including a heated swimming pool which is nice to dip into after a busy walking/fishing/beach day. My adult son caught many snapper and 1 kingi so I felt spoilt having fish on tap. Whangaroa is a great fishing spot. Property owners are very pleasant and very accommodating. They even checked up on us after the cyclone to ensure we were all ok and the house was alright. Thank you for a fantastic stay.

Another brilliant stay !

We loved it so much last year, we decided to bring the family this time, And they loved it just as much as we did! I can't rate this property, and the owners high enough :) Such lovely and easy people to deal with, and very accomidating. Just the perfect spot for a couple OR family get away! Beautiful house, stunning view, gorgeous pool and spa( both got a lot of use) fishing 2 minutes away, and incredible beaches just up the road. We will definitely be back for our third trip!

Fantastc Views from all decks & indoor rooms and House & property excellent

Wow, what a fantastic location. We loved our stay here. The views were outstanding. Feel envious that we can't have this type of lifestyle fulltime. I could easlily live here permanently. The house has exceptional in/out flow, beautifully decorated & exceptionally clean. The pool & spa were a bonus. Wished we had of booked for longer. We will book next year and for longer. Our Property manger/owner is extremely friendly & informed us in advance of all questions I asked without delay. A top rated property. Thank you for having us.

Beautiful spot

Such a lovely house, all amenities are there to use for cooking and making you feel as though you are home. Very clean and tidy. The pool is great! Probably my favourite feature. St. Paul’s Rock walk has amazing views of the harbour and bays around, well worth the climb. There is only one eatery in the area at the boating club they do amazing food for dinner and very accommodating. I would recommend you bring your own groceries for breakfasts and lunches though as there aren’t any cafes to go out to. Everything was perfect, thank you for letting us stay :)
