Loved the unit, was so clean and tidy and very homely. Continental breakfast was a nice gesture. The owners were very warm and welcoming.

No air con, but was provided with a fan.

Good location for visiting the area. Waihi beach is fine. A bit of a way to Hobbiton and Mount Manganui beach, but both well worth the extra time. Gold discovery centre in town is very informative.

Internet connection was very poor; however this appears to be something to do with the provider and UK laptops/phones as we've had no problems anywhere else in NZ, across 7 visits covering 10+ months. Owner was very helpful in trying to solve this issue.

Clean, fairly new, so pretty nice. Had some goodies in the fridge, great hosts.

Not much, but a neighbor was having is over night. Can't do much about that, though.

Basic breakfast but options available and having breakfast provided was an extra bonus, not expected.

All good

9AllanPosted on: 11-26-2024

10WendyPosted on: 9-16-2024

Exceptional shower, appreciated the continental breakfast, very friendly owners, very comfortable beds, nice little outside space, sunny and large room.

Nothing!

Very clean, new, and comfortable.Great bike wash and secure storage - excellent planning!

I enquired about gluten free options for breakfast, but was brushed off as though I was being difficult. So for me, breakfast was non-existent. Vegan or vegetarian is a choice, gluten free is not

9ChristopherPosted on: 5-9-2024

Very clean and tidy. Friendly staff.The owners kindly turned the heater on in my unit as they knew I was arriving late and the day was cold.

10AnnaPosted on: 4-24-2024

Very clean, warm, well appointed and wonderful hosts in Greg and Gaylene.

8EduanPosted on: 3-24-2024

Clean, neat, breakfast, location

Shower flow is very strong. Glass doors would prevent bathroom floor being wet all over.

8JohnPosted on: 3-23-2024

It was clean, pleasant and spacious, without being pretentious. And it had everything I needed.
