    Amazing location , beach basically on your doorstep couldn't not go for a morning swim . We stayed in the oyster studio, loved all the decor, which made the studio more unique and colors, comfortable cozy and clean. Helpful staff . Cute welcome note on door as we arrived. Bonus got to meet Brain, owner of property, who gave us some personal recommendations of places to see in the north . Will definitely be back again . Thank you 😊

    It was extremely hot at night and we struggled to get good sleep.More fans or air conditioning in the bedrooms would’ve helped. The fans that were there were a bit weak. One of them kept falling over and had to be held up by my belt

    Location. Cannot be beaten. Right on the beach.

    The bed was a little soft for me but otherwise was amazing.

    This is a gem of a place. Right on the beach, a little home away from home with everything you need and the most fantastic view. Nothing like sitting on the balcony with a morning coffee looking out to the ocean. Would highly recommend and can't wait to go back again.

    Awesome location right near the beach. Good facilities which allowed for self-catering. Some lovely beaches nearby. We got up really early one morning and drove to Cape Reinga in time for sunset which was beautiful. Easy check-in & check-out.

    There was a sign saying where to park, however some people didn't park as requested so we had someone park in front of our view to the beach and we had to park across the road. Maybe it could be clearer. We were on ground floor. An upstairs unit would avoid this.

    Amazing spot right on the beach. Comfortable well sized unit with everything you need. Has a batch/crib feel to it.

    Signage into the driveway was inappropriately placed. Took us ages (and several U-turns on a busy road) to get to the right entrance. Once parked, we found one of our units (2) with name on the glass. However, we couldn’t find number 8 at all. It had a different name to the one on the list and no name was written on the glass. Caused much confusion. Luckily, the owner arrived back and was able to direct us to the correct location. Otherwise, I dont know what we would’ve done. There was no one else to help us. Please, please sort your signage out. We wasted 40 mins trying to get to the right driveway and then to find both units, which left us all a bit stressed. Pity the parked cars spoil the views a little…parking could be better organised.

    We had two units. One had excellent views, the other limited. Amazing location right on the beach. Fresh, clean and spacious, in the bigger unit, at least. Large table n chairs outside and the BBQ were great. Good local shops. Relaxed and chilled atmosphere.
