This place is excellent. Whether you are staying with your spouse for only a night or with a large family for a long period of time, this lovely apartment complex is the place you should stay. Each unit comes with an integrated garage and its own washer/dryer, which is very convenient. There were several bedrooms, however we only needed the one, but it was clean, modern, and had a comfy bed with plenty of blankets and extra pillows. There are two bathrooms; one on the first level off of the garage and next to the patio, and another on the second level next to the bedrooms. The second bathroom includes a shower (and heated towel rack!) and sink in one half, and a toilet and sink in the other half so if someone is taking a shower it doesn't limit someone from going to the bathroom (great for families in the morning or before bed). On the third floor is a kitchen, living room, and dining room that are all very spacious, modern, and comfortable. There's a DVD player for the kids on those rainy days too. The apartment itself is very close to the beach at maybe a 2 minute walk, and is about 800m from the downtown area. There is a convenience store approximately 200m from the apartment, and there are plenty of restaurants to choose from in the downtown.
This apartment is worth a stay. If I lived in NZ I would make the Marine Reserved Holiday Apartments a regular summer destination.
