Hart Street Hideaway

catherineRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Amazing place to stay. Super cosy, spotlessly clean, & super comfortable bed. Thanks for being pet friendly, we loved our weekend away with our 2 year of Labrador. 2 minute walk to beautiful beach for her to run & swim. Lots of thoughtful little extras, milk & juice in fridge, tea and coffee supplies, dog towels & balls. Thanks Wendy for a wonderful stay

Beach oasis on Oceanview Rd

EmmaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
A fabulous little sanctuary so close to the beach. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t quite what we hoped, but that didn’t really matter as the place was so comfortable with great sofas a large Smart TV and fast Wi-Fi. The fully fenced garden made it a dream for our little fur baby, who loved zooming around the grass. The kitchen is well stocked with good quality pans and crockery and the plumbed fridge freezer with ice maker was great for G&T time! Really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.

Pukehina Beachfront Hideaway

JeffRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The place is just as shown - on the beach with a great view from the deck. Small, but comfortable one BR one bath apt. Bath is very basic, but functional. Not luxurious, but clean and well laid out. Most important, the access to a sandy, open beach is exceptional. Vanessa and husband are responsive and gracious hosts. Limited dining nearby. Heartily recommend Montys cafe for beach-casual food. Lantern is 20 mins drive - good dinner.
