For a family gathering it is a great place. Lots of space and for kids having the school over the back fence was great for them to run around.

Nice and close to everything

A nice place. It was a good size for our group. Close to Bayfair and the beach. It would be great if it had a dryer to get the washing dry over the week. Great comms with the owner, had a slight mishap with TV remote being missing, but it was later found down the side of the couch when we returned to look for it.

Mount Nightmare

House was not clean and smells of rubbish, bins not emptied or cleaned. Not enough linen or towels for the stay. Location to neighbors not ideal for family fun. Stay away, much better properties closer to the Mount for a lot less price.

Lovely, clean, well equipped property. Highlight was school grounds over fence and pump track across the road. These were invaluable for our kids, and therefore the quality of our trip!! Would definitely stay here again.

Great for big groups

We were a group of 15 friends and family in town for a gig on Saturday night. The set-up of the house was perfect for a big group - lots of beds so everybody could have a comfortable sleep and a bit of privacy. Being down a drive also meant we had a place to park our cars. We didn't have the best weather so having the BBQ area undercover made things easy. Great stay.

Kiran & Family Mt Maunganui 2020

Excellent house, good amenities for a stay with family. We would have loved to extend our stay. Close to the beach and within 10 mins to all shopping outlets. Mt Maunganui was a excellent trip and the stay was relaxing.
