The pictures are completely outdated. There isn't even a tree in the front yard any longer. While the location was good, the following issues occured: Check in = lock box did not work as instructed. Had to call to find that the key was just hidden on the property elsewhere. Firewood = Not prepped. Had to actually chop the wood ourselves. While a good workout, it was inconvenient. Cleanliness = The place needs a good scrubbing. Dirty floors, dirty closets and a general lack of organization Heaters = Just one heater for 3 bedrooms. TV/Internet = Remotes strewn all over the place and behind the TV. Had to reboot everything several times to get it all to finally work. Worst of all = Cockroaches (or at least the ones that came out that we could see and kill). This place was "Fair" at best. We should have gotten a refund just for all the work we put into it...to get some rest! Left it better than we found it.

Comfortable and easy stay for relaxation escape. Close access to beach , estuary and Whangamata. Nice and quiet. Great for an escape break which is what we wanted. WiFi very erratic so do not depend on if you're still needing to conduct any business or urgent matters.
