It's a really comfortable place, a short steep walk up Tawa Street, with good access to Little Oneroa for a morning swim or an evening pizza. It's also handy for the shopping and cafes of Oneroa village. No wifi, so had to use my 4g phone signal if needed. But I hope to come back and stay again. ##### Robert P.
