    Not enough wine glasses for 8 pax, we bought 4 and left in cupboard to share. Coffee machine does not have the correct basket in coffee holder to brew the coffee. coffee grinds were very hard to get out to make next one which made a hell of a mess. We wasted a lot of the coffee. If you put the correct basket in it will make a nice coffee.

    The property was pretty awesome for our group - big enough that we could each have our own space when needed, and awesome facilities for communal cooking and sharing of meals. It was very clean, and the kitchen in particular had everything we needed. Great location too for walks and swims.

    Such a great spot for our family stay in Mangawhai. The home was comfortable, well equipped, and felt welcoming from the moment we arrived. Quiet location but still close to everything. Highly recommend!

    Such a beautiful place and perfect for a large group! We had a beautiful stay for the weekend with extended family. All the kids were entertained throughout and with the open areas, the adults were able to keep a look out while relaxing. Thank you!

    We had an excellent family stay here. The house was perfect for our family of 8 adults and 7 children (4 to 17). Clean, spacious, comfy beds, well equipped kitchen and trampoline and swings for the kids.

    Great property for a family get together. Outdoor fire and seating area was awesome. The only things we’d have liked is more seating in lounge (there were no bean bags by fire as shown in pictures) and towel rails needed in some bathrooms. Otherwise met our needs.

    Perfect for the group family stay with enough to slightly seperate the individual sleeping areas but bring us together in the socialising areas. Beach was a blink away, outdoor areas covered for rain and sun. All cooking condiments ( and coffee) available for a few days use.

    Communication leading up to our stay with Jasmin was outstanding. Perfect accommodation for the big group that stayed. 17 adults and 7 children aged from 4 years old to 6 months old. Swings and trampoline with enclosed fence around property meant the adults could relax knowing the kids were safe. Loved the fireplace for cooler evenings. Great vibe throughout the house. Comfortable beds and one portable cot and one fixed cot was handy for the little ones.Would definitely recommend and stay again.
