Incredible views, pristine home.
You couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. The apartment was fully stocked with kitchen equipment, bedding, and bathroom necessities. There was a great deal of space to relax both inside and outside and proximity to Thames was perfect. The patio offered great sunset views that gives you the perfect ending to your day.

Lovely spot
We spent four days at this property. It's in a lovely location, wonderful views and a neat and clean house. We couldn't find a couple of kitchen basics (coffee plunger, frying pan) but the breakfast was great (eggs, toast, muesli, fruit, milk etc) and all the other things that you'd expect were available. Thanks for a great stay!

Paradise Found
With a lovely ocean bay view, clean and comfortable accommodations, and even complimentary continental breakfast provisions, we could not have asked for more. The yard is beautifully landscaped, and the sunroom, master bedroom, and outdoor patio offer views of the bay. Wonderful places to relax and unwind. Our host, Vernon, couldn't have been nicer. He was very responsive and made our stay perfect in every way. We would definitely return if ever in the area again.

What a peaceful, lovely location! The views on the Bay from the deck are spectacular. The property is in a great location to explore the Coromandel area, and it's close to some great tracks. Inside, it is well-stocked, and we really appreciated arriving to a fridge stocked with all the basics! We would definitely love to visit again!

Lovely place to stay
The apartment was clean, and well kept up. Will eventually need an update. Property is for sale per a sign at bottom of driveway.. Lovely views, we had breakfast with a view every morning..We have a high bar and this property met that bar. Its a little bit different which makes it memorable..Driveway is tricky to navigate even for experienced drivers, but its not a deal breaker. We'd recommend it withput hesitation and would stay again...nice job!!

Lovely place
Great property, easy stay. Super nice owners, stocked the fridge with some basic essentials which was great. Driveway tough as others had mentioned - i got better by the third time i tried it, but admittedly i had a larger vehicle and hoping it would have been easier with a smaller car. Overall zero complaints. Lovely place and lovely stay.

Spectacular View
This apartment was very clean, well appointed, and had a wonderful view of the bay from inside and out. It was a nice surprise to have a lot of the basics already provided (baggies, aluminum foil, tea/coffee, sugar/salt/pepper, oil) but also items just for us like milk, juice, bottled water, eggs, and cereal. That was so nice and thoughtful and much appreciated. The neighborhood was quiet but you could still hear the water. There is a walking path down to the beach. The only thing we were disappointed with was that our stay was too short.
