We will be back

Great holiday base and host. Lots of thoughtful features to make our stay comfortable. Loved the location for beach access, views and easy access by car to shops and attractions. The pool and hot tub were big draw cards for our water loving family and did not disappoint, used daily. Kids did not want to leave and we’ll definitely be back.

We stayed a week and used it as a base to look around. Very comfortable, handy to town and it had everything we needed. Beach was a short stroll away and there was a nice coffee cart 5 minutes away with lovely views across the bay.

Great for families

We had a great stay at this apartment. Spacious enough for 5 of us. We really appreciate the well equipped kitchen. Vaughan was really friendly and accomodating. Lovely location, away from the hustle and bustle of "Whiti City" but only a short drive away if you want to eat out or top up your supplies. Just a short walk to the safe swimming beach just across the road if you don't feel like driving elsewhere. Great walks and sunrise from there too. Our children also really enjoyed the pool. Thanks Vaughan, we are hoping to be back again!

The stay at Vaughan's place was amazing! My family and I enjoyed the well-mantained unit which had all your can only wish for on a holiday! The beach just a few steps aside and a pool next door made our days bright. Special thanks for providing good advice on entertainment. The glass bottom boat trip was amazing!

Wonderful apartment, clean and spacious and had everything we needed (and extra bubbly perk). Loved that the Lost Spring Hot pools retreat is only a few minutes down the road. Thanks so much Vaughan for being an excellent host and the option for checking out later than usual.

Lovely apartment for a beach stay.

The unit was spacious and clean. Great location just a couple of km north of Whitianga township. It has all the amenities you could want for a family beach holiday. Far more than was required by my wife and I for a short stay.

Beautiful Bay Views

Had a few moments of panic with the Stayz platform not reminding me about payments and needed my daughter to find my initial booking to figure out my balance and due date. My host, Vaughan, was lovely and helped out with giving the key to a family member when we ran late with arrival. Found a welcome chilled bottle of bubbles to ease the travel pains. The property was immaculate and makes the most of Buffalo Beach’s views. Really close to shops, parks, coffee cart across the road and then there is the beach. We had an under two year old in our family group and this property has a straight run of stairs between floors that gave us a good work out - another few months of balance on our tiny terror and it would have been fine.

Was everything expected from advertisement. We would have loved to use the spa after our walks but unfortunately the pump had just broken and the body corp couldn’t of course arrange fix until after weekend. Not owners fault. We still very much enjoyed our stay.
