About this apartment rental

Great location just a short stroll to the beach and coastal walkway (perfect for a run), and an easy walk into town. Convenient check-in process with coded lock. Place was immaculately clean, bed and furnishings were comfortable, bedding was lovely, the gardens delightful, and all the facilities were there. The only tiny drawback is that there is no facility for streaming media to the TV or DVD player, so bring your own device with HDMI output or watch TV/DVDs the old-school way. Highly recommended: coffee, scones and friendly chat at the Sunny caravan around the corner in the Freedom store carpark.

A smart, clean and very comfortable place to stay. Everything was very new and spotless. Close to town and very easy access to coastal walkway, yet very quiet.

A beautifully clean and warm apartment, with every comfort needed for our brief stay. We chose the location for it's proximity to the coastal walkway, but found it is also very close to the city center, which we loved.
Excellent hosts, accommodating and first class.

We loved our stay at Whare Hita, it's stylish, super comfortable and wonderfully located close to city and coast with a lovely subtropicalish garden. Might be useful for others to know there's no door between the bedroom and lounge, it's essentially one big room.

We loved our stay Whare Hita. The bach is beautifully designed, very comfortable and offers everything you can wish for. The deck is a real treat, offering a great green and sunny outdoor space even for our very early spring trip.
The location cannot be better: quiet, so close to the ocean and beach and everything in the city within walking distance.
The communication with Rachel was super easy all the way through.
In other words: HIGHLY recommended!

I spent seven weeks in New Plymouth, staying at the lovely Whare Hita--a beautiful and serene accommodation, which facilitates indoor/outdoor living with its wall of glass separating the inside from a large deck and very private garden (which has matured since the site photos were taken). A sanctuary located a short walk from the heart of New Plymouth, and only two blocks from Eastend Beach and the Coastal Walkway. Beautifully designed, and appointed with an extremely comfortable queen-sized bed, an exceptional shower and bathroom, its own washer/dryer, and a fast-heating convection oven and induction stovetop. The hosts are lovely and very responsive. I’ve already booked for my return trip! Out of five stars, I’d give it a six.

This beautiful apartment is such a peaceful place to return to after a day spent walking nearby tracks. The garden has palm trees swaying gently in the breeze and interior furnishings are comfortable and attractive. Situated within easy reach of city centre, coastal walkway and Mount Taranaki.

Would absolutely recommend staying here. Great location, one street back from the beach and less than 5 minutes to the centre of the CBD in peak hour traffic, felt a safe neighborhood. Modern, stylish and very comfortable, thoughtful extra touches provided by host.
The small garden has matured since the photos taken making the deck and unit very private

Delighted with our weekend choice. With the weather being bad, the radiator and heater combination made a big difference! Great quality shower and super comfy bed. Stylish location and property, enhanced by lovely flowers and a few food and drink goodies to get us started. We will be back!

This is such a great little apartment. Super central so it’s a great base for exploring New Plymouth and it’s very close to the beach and the coastal walk, as well as plenty of good restaurants and bars.
The apartment is nice and modern and has everything you could need. It was very clean and the extra touches, like the cookies on arrival, made it feel very homely. We found that it was really great value and would have loved to have stayed for longer.
