Beachfront Retreat Tutere Street Waikanae Kapiti

ClaireRating, 5 stars2 days ago

Christine and John are wonderful hosts and their beachfront accommodation is the perfect escape. Their apartment is lovely to be in and very well appointed - and the views of the ocean are fabulous. Great kitchen with everything you need, a good selection of breakfast supplies to get you started, spotlessly clean bathroom etc. My partner and I had a mini break for a couple of nights and it was just what we needed. Highly recommended and will be back in the future.
