Perfect family accomodation

We had a brilliant few days in Murrays Bay staying here while visiting family nearby. So much space and very comfortable with everything we needed (and more!). The welcome basket was lovely and there was an extra special touch of an Easter egg hunt for our two daughters, which they thoroughly enjoyed. We will definitely look to stay here again next time we are back to visit.

Great for a weekend in Auckland

The owner/property managers live in an ajoining house, and they were so incredibly lovely and accommodating during the booking process and at check-in. After that they left us to it. It was a great place to stay for 3 nights while we stayed in Auckland.

Perfect Stay

Very cosy, clean & comfortable accommodation with lovely hosts, Crystal & Kelvin, who were very kind & friendly as well as happy to help. A lovely basket of food was left for us, including homemade bread, fresh fruit, eggs, muesli bars, cereals & biscuits - we felt very spoilt. We loved the selection of coffee capsules & tea bags along with other snacks. We would highly recommend & are looking to return again. The beach & shops are very close by so it's also a great location to stay at.

Fantastic getaway home!

This property was perfect for a getaway few days with my daughter. The house was perfect and it was made so welcoming by property owners Crystal and Kelvin. Lots of personal touches (including breakfast food, and homemade soap to bring home 😊). The home is central to many great cafes and restaurants and close to some beautiful beaches. Crystal and Kelvin are welcoming and friendly and live in the adjoining house, so if you need any local info etc, they are close by and happy to help. In short, I highly recommend this property and the property owners 😃. We had such a fantastic stay and we will stay here again, hopefully soon!
