Nothing

Location was perfect, modern, clean and tidy while staring out to Waikanae Beach. So beautiful.

Fabulous location with wonderful sea views. Unit was well equipped and comfortable. We loved the covered outdoor area accessed through sliding doors from the lounge as it was well protected from the prevailing wind and meant we could sit outside and enjoy the evening

The kitchen had 8 water glasses but only 2 wine glasses. I had checked the website before we came to see if a Nespresso machine was provided so I could bring Nespresso pods from home but it wasn't mentioned on the list of appliances. When we got here there was a machine but I couldn't be bothered making a trip to the supermarket just to buy pods - perhaps the website could be updated with a note to bring your own pods. The guests next door returned from Speedway and were making a lot of noise even though the rules state quiet required after 10 pm and this is re-iterated at check in. Finally, after a couple of hours around midnight my sister rang the Night Duty Manager. To her credit she was very apologetic and acted very promptly. We wanted to wipe down the dining and outdoor table but there were no paper towels or spray and wipe provided. It would also be helpful to have some glad wrap provided. The floors had been vacuumed but not mopped and were very grimy to the extent that the bathmat was dirty underneath as were our socks and slippers - everything else was spotless.

Apartment was clean and tidy. It is a great location

One of the heat pumps didn't work and with the stone floors the apartment is quite cold. Couldn't find extra blankets anywhere, had to get them the next day. No frypan for the stove top only an electric frypan but the location of plugs for the jug, toaster and frypan (only 2) is located at the end of the bench with minimal bench space to house them.
