Lovely little property with a perfect location being close to the beach and shops. Very comfortable and beautifully furnished. Carly and Bruce were great with communication and very friendly but kept out of the way. As a woman on my own it was great to know they were available if needed. Will definitely stay again.

Worth every cent
Excellent hosts, they leave guest's alone, ultimate privacy. Beautiful little whare with private deck for drinks. Only thing missing is a private spa. That would have been a 10/10. Instead a 9/10.

9 day holiday in Waihi
The property is just what you see online and is just cute, tidy, clean, modern and perfect for 1 or two people. Close to the beach and shops and 11 min drive to Waihi township where there is a New World and other shops. Carly and Bruce go out of there way to be there and accomodate you with anything that you require, a lovely couple and will definitely be going back to stay again. Highly recommend for short - long stay. 10 out of 10 :)
