Garden View House at Flaxmill Resort was an excellent place to stay. The facilities exceeded our expectations. The interior is thoughtfully designed, and the high quality of everything provided—bedding, kitchen supplies, and furniture—made us feel right at home. The surrounding garden with bushes and trees offers privacy and welcome shade during hot summer days. The house was absolutely spotless, which was another pleasant surprise. A truly first-class accommodation!

Flaxmill bay is a lovely location with an easy ferry ride across to Whitianga. The lodges are immaculate and very comfortable and we had a world class dinner at a fabulous restaurant nearby. Thoroughly recommended!
