About this house rental

Karen and David welcome you to stay By The Harbour at our freshly refurbished, clean and bright studio located on the first level of our family home. The suite is completely separate from the main house. Enjoy privacy and security with your own private access, courtyard with BBQ, outdoor tables and chairs, plunge pool(unheated) and off road parking. The suite has two bedrooms, a separate toilet, bathroom with shower, vanity and washing machine and the lounge/dining area, with kitchenette, opens up right onto the courtyard. Away from the hustle and bustle this quiet haven is the perfect compliment to a busy day of sightseeing or after a big day at the Mount beach (15 – 20 min drive). Just come home and relax! Our desirable location is a 2min walk to the harbour where you can enjoy the walkways, park and views across to Mount Maunganui and Matakana Island. Take a stroll to our local shops: Fish and Chips, Japanese and Hawaiin Food (Dine in or Takeaway), Matua Pub, dairy and Hairdresser. The Cherrywood Shops are a short drive away and include a bakery, café, Butchery, Gift shop, Four Square store, Istanbul - Turkish Eatery, Neighbourhood Restaurant and our popular shoe shop.

Hosts we're wonderful. Sarge the resident cat was incredibly attentive (we would visit again just for his cuddles, he's a real character). We were made to feel very welcome, David and Karen even joined us for a drink when we were having user issues with the TV. This unit is bright, warm, quiet and clean with a very safe feel about it. Only a short stroll to the waterfront.

Fabulous communication. Accom very tidy and spacious. Pool small but great to cool off in. Sometumes a bit noisy from floor creaking upstairs. Location fantastic.

Good for price, however, a bit inconvenient not having water/sink in the kitchen facilities, other than that, excellent for a small family and short time.
