This is typically what our guests say; “Fabulous Location and just how much room there was, it truly was value for money” Krissy, New Zealand “How beautiful and serene the property was. The hosts were amazing and considerate. The kids absolutely loved it. They hung out on the lawn and discovered the garden. Our stay was way too short.” Hiba, New Zealand This apartment is spacious and sleeps 6 people comfortably. What guests absolutely love is the spacious light, airy apartment. The garden offers a perfect place to sit and relax and simply enjoy the peaceful nature. Enjoy a cappuccino, listen to the birdsong and soak up the sunrays on your private verandah or under a shady tree. The accommodation has 1 large space, which consists of 1 queen bed and 2 single trundle beds - suitable for children. There is a separate bedroom with a queen bed - ideal for business colleagues requiring separate bedrooms (colleagues who want separate sleeping spaces must book for 3 adults as booking for 2 adults will give you a shared room). There is a kitchenette for light cooking which has a microwave, small ceramic cooktop, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, expresso maker and kettle. Tea and coffee are available in your kitchenette. No oven is available. A separate TV area with large comfortable sofa and a 65 inch TV with Netflix, Disney Channels etc. . We can supply a BBQ on request for your use. The apartment has excellent indoor/outdoor living. There is a sunroom for you to sit and watch the birdlife. You have a separate entrance to your apartment. There is a trampoline and swing for your children to enjoy. A beautiful pool is situated in the garden for your use. Laundry facilities are available for use during day light hours only. The bathroom is 1 small room with toilet, wash basin and shower. Once again, if you are 2 adults, but require separate sleeping spaces you must make sure you click for 3 adults to ensure you both get your own private sleeping space.
We love to host and make you feel welcomed. Our home is 2 storied. We live upstairs and the guest wing accommodation is situated on the ground floor. We are all totally private from you. You have your own living and outdoor space, but of course during the summer months you will be sharing the pool with others. If there is anything you need in particular, please ask. We are open to feedback and making your stay as comfortable as possible. If you need more towels or need to borrow a rice cooker or air fryer please just ask. We trust you will have an enjoyable stay.we have had several guests return. See you soon!
We are a short 10-15 min walk from historic Stone Store. There are several walks to explore along meandering rivers. We live in a peaceful neighborhood. We are 5-10 mins drive to town for your shopping needs. There are many opportunities for water sports and fishing in the Bay of Islands. Explore the vineyards in the surrounding area. Plenty of cafes and restaurants close by so you won't go hungry.
