It was such a cute house, with s swimming pool and a view from the patio over the mountain.

    It is a beautifully presented boutique hotel. Our room was very clean and the bed and pillows were lovely and comfortable. Parking was available right outside. We had dinner at the Clarence Bistro and it was one of the best dining experiences we’ve ever had. The food was amazing 10/10

    A classy clean-cut place which distinguishes itself by providing premium toiletries that promotes local eco-farm products, which we felt pampered by. The property is within a quiet location yet easily accessible to food and retail areas. We were given an upgraded room that was spacious and well designed (loved the kitchenette). On the day we left, the staff kindly showed us the best place to capture beautiful pictures of the Bay of Plenty.

    The breakfast spread was fantastic for a B&B. The aesthetic and design of the place was classy, peaceful, elegant yet very homely and warm all at the same time! It was a great combination of B&B bliss and 5 star hotel room. The bed was super comfy and bathroom was modern and clean. The host was fantastic, friendly and very welcoming. Great communication leading up to the stay too. Thanks for having us!
