Havelock North town two mins walk. Comfortable facilities with everything you need. Good indoor and outdoor options. Gas bottle ran out first night and due to heating and water being gas it made for a frustrating hour or two, however bookabach and the property manager sorted the problem and provided a replacement gas bottle within about 90 mins - no harm done (and thanks for the prompt fix) ##### Samuel L.

The property was great with good bedroom and bathroom configuration. The kitchen and open plan dining and lounge are excellent spaces. Property is well located within easy walking distance to Village shops and restaurants etc. Only downside for us was the listing said BBQ and this does not exist which was extremely disappointing. We would have made other food choices if we had known. ##### Phil B.
