“Great stay in a great place”
This was our last long stop of a three week holiday in New Zealand. This apartment was by far the best we had in the trip. It was spacious and comfortable. It was also close to cafes, town and the water. You couldn’t do better than this place.

Whitianga is a very charming place to visit and is close to many beaches in the area. The restaurants very close and varied, we like to walk rather than drive, which suited us
