Wow! What a treat! One of the best places I have stayed. A very large apartment, Facilities were beautiful,clean and smelt devine. View was outstanding, bed comfy and oh my that outdoor bath, just Wow! Incredible! Everything provided, proper coffee, milk, shower products. The check in instructions are quite big, but you will understand why, its a gorgeous property, safe and secure and the owners proudly want to keep it that way. Can't wait to stay again.

Would have liked some tea for the teapot ;(

Unit 2 was clean, modern and a great convenient location.

Unit 2 was a stand alone condo with lots of privacy and modern amenities. The location was a short walk down the hill to The Strand and restaurants, shops etc. The owner, Annie, was very responsive.

Even though Unit 2 did have a nice view of a bay there was constant noise from Hwy 2 which was between the condo and the water however, after awhile the sound blended in and could only be heard if you were on the balcony. We spoke to the owner Annie about the lack of any outdoor seating or even a shade umbrella, and was told that they were not allowed because of Condo rules. This was a problem for us as the unit is west facing and had full sun in the evening. Annie, I believe had to obey this ruling but as we were there for a month. to be able comfortably use the balcony would have been lovely, and this was not the case.

Beautiful luxury unit with amazing views located close to shops and restaurants

Annie was a fantastic host - caring and kind, she made our stay easier despite visiting Tauranga for a family funeral. Annie is responsive but also detailed, I really appreciated the instruction manual at the unit, this helped us enjoy the unit without any issues or interruptions. Large sized luxury unit in a great location with beautiful views - we will definitely stay again when we next visit NZ.

In spite of what We

Almost everything, especially wake up with a fresh coffee that provided by the house.

in the kitchen and bathroom were sticky with some sorts of very sticky drops on the flooring for our shoes and my socks were not on. I picked some red hairs as we entered the house. some dirt and crumbs in the living room sofa floor area. in the master bedroom behind the door a lot of dirts and some dead bugs. Overall the house is still very clean and tidy.

Very disappointing

A lovely, large unit with a nice view

We had a very bad experience with this property with regard to communication with the owner, who is located in another country and the assurances she made to us. We could not gain access to the property without providing a passport or drivers licence to the owner prior to our arrival. Despite the concerns expressed about the safety of my personal information and assurances that it would be safe, it was not treated appropriately and uploaded to a shared drive. No proof was provided that the information had been destroyed. On arrival at the property the lock box for the key was not working. After an hour and a half of communication back and forth, we were offered a dinner to compensate us for the inconvenience. This was not followed up on and the alternative arrangement of a discount on a future booking is not achievable for us. The rules around using the property are many and demeaning. security cameras are installed at the entrance and you are warned that you are being watched. A very unpleasant and unprofessional owner with little regard for her paying guests

Best Bath in the Rain Unit 2

We never met the staff,but I marked it excellent. They came in to fix the WiFi straight away. The place is new, facing beautiful views of the estuary and roadway below, there is a bath on the deck, excellent place to be in the rain and dark. Very private with a big view. There were 6 of us in the party, 2 couples and 2 singles. We fitted in well. Excellent kitchen, glassware is not mentioned on the rubbish bin. We left them seperate. Loved the rollout mat for the deck. My king bed was great, no complaints from the others.

Loved everything in this apartment.

A very comfortable stay in a beautiful location.

The property was in a quiet location with good security and parking. The beds were very comfortable and the property was very clean and well presented. Having a washing machine and dryer was handy.

The lockbox was in a bit of a difficult location near the ground and I had to kneel on the ground to access it. We had a little trouble with the internet but it was quickly resolved by the owner. Everything else was fabulous.

Lovely accommodation; a walk from the restaurant district and great parking.

1. Lovely kitchen - made for a comfy stay. 2. Proximity to pedestrian zone and restaurant hub was a treat. We thoroughly enjoyed being able to go for a walk for dinner and walk along the waterfront. 3. Main bedroom and living area was lovely.

1. Directions to the lock box could be clearer. Upon arrival at the property it took some time for us to discover the lock-box mounted on a box, facing away from the road at ground level, the same colour as the wall onto which it is mounted. I was entering the Code into Unit 1's door lock and into the gate electronic lock repeatedly. Almost gave up when I by chance discovered the actual lock box. 2. Second bedroom double bed was reportedly too firm and made for a tough night's sleep. 3. Apartment manuals could use with an update (information relating the bins/garbage was out of date, car parking bay numbers was out of date). 4. Main bathroom door couldn't lock

Annie was very responsive and stayed in touch the whole time. We'd stay here again.

Loved the location, the modern apartment with separate bedrooms and bathrooms. The view was great and secure garage for the car. A short walk to bars and cafes.

Wifi didn't work, and there were ants in one of the bedrooms. Outdoor furniture on the deck would have been great to enjoy the sun. One of the heat pumps needs attention. Most of these were minor.

Private and comfortable holiday getaway. Would definitely come back.

Host replies quite quickly if required. Very clean. The ensuite bedroom bed was very comfortable. Walking distance to waterfront, and short drive to the Mount. Great to have two parking space. The unit was quiet and private. We loved having the espresso coffee machine. Kitchen well equipped. Nice to be able to wash clothes during travel.

The bathtub was out on the balcony. Therefore have to wear togs when using. It was not a spa unit. However, great view and ambience to soak on the balcony during sunset or night time.

Not much is perfect with apartment rental accommodation

The location, parking good. View ok. Deck has no seating furniture - stand look then retire inside. Bath on deck novel but moved a bit when 2 of us tried it!

Apart from main on suite bedroom, all other beds had no sprung beds = kapock type mattress. Silly as photos from owner show a nice sleeping environment but reality is a tourist cabin sleeping mattress and hard as. 2% of population would like those mattresses. Massively overpriced assets. Bigger toaster needed. Not suitable for older folks as one bed in conference room was locked against a wall and had to disturb partner to get out of bed onto floor. Crockery and cutlery way short of need as 6 guests need 2 sets standard for a day and 3 sets for 3 meals at this establishment per day. Sure dishwasher useage helps but base equipment shy of comfortable. Rubbish bins tiny for waste. Recycling ok but small facility. No place to hang anything in bathroom. Did I mention 4 of the 6 beds were hard?
