After a long stressful drive where I was constantly held up with roadworks and slow vehicles, I was very late and was going to miss the cut off time for the office. Upon arriving I was greeted by the most lovely lady on the front desk who reassured me it was no problem I was late. I then later checked my messages to see they had tried very hard to contact me ( I was driving so couldn’t check my phone) and had arranged for me to still access my room no matter the time. It honestly made my Day.

A Gem in Waikanae
The new hosts were very welcoming, friendly, helpful & hospitable. Although it was something out of the 1970's the unit was very tidy & clean; & it felt like blast from the past.
