Has everything you need and is a lovely place to stay. Note that the bunk room is quite separated from the main two bedrooms if you have young children. A dryer (although not necessary in summer) would’ve been nice to dry towels for swimming. ##### Anne W.

Great house, including large terrace and fine sea view. High standard of kitchen, furniture, beds, etc. It is a bit off Oneroa centre and to maximise your holiday experience you will need a car throughout your stay. The heat pump/AC were not in order during our stay and there was smelly odor coming from the waste water pipes. We had to close windows and no A/C working which was not ideal. ##### Simon H.
