A 15 minute walk to the shops and cafes.

Lazy days at Whangamataa.

Awesome place with plenty of bedding for the amount of people we had staying and plenty of lawn for the kids to run around and play within the fully fenced section. Only a 5-10 minute walk to the beach and park//recreational area. Communication with the property owner was excellent. Would highly recommend this property to anyone heading to Whangamataa.

Easy weekend away

We've stayed at this property twice now. Great communication with owners, a good space for larger families as there is the use of upstairs and downstairs, great location and a huge section for kids to run around in. It's a real kiwi Bach so we don't have to stress about the kids and the deck is perfect for morning coffees and afternoon beers.

Short stay in Whangamata

Property was spacious but the lower level needs updating. We spent all our time on the upper level when at the property & only used the lower level to sleep, toilet & shower. It's ok for the cheaper price, you certainly get what you pay for.

Details

The upstairs living room and bedrooms are fine but the downstairs living carpet is so cold damp and feels like its wet and the last people that were there before us throw all the rubbish in the big yellow rubbish bin and over filled it but we did clean up and left somethings for the owner to use for more guests

The good and the bad!

Great location! Communication was really good with the manager. Upstairs kitchen is lovely, really well stocked with utensils. Some thoughts we had that would improve the property… firstly it was full of dog hair, which being a pet friendly accommodation I get, however a vacuum that actually has some suction would be great to get rid of that before other guests arrive who like us, did not have a dog. Curtains need to be hung properly so they actually cover the whole window on the upstairs bedroom. Downstairs is very musty and damp and has what looks like asbestos on the ceiling which was actually dropping and had obviously been disturbed by previous visitors, so we decided not to use the downstairs which meant we did have to sleep on the floor as there was no longer enough beds. Lots of positives to this property that could easily be improved with just a little extra TLC.

Downstairs unit needs an overhaul

Location was great. Huge secure yard. Upstairs was servicable but dated and could have been cleaner, also needs new curtains in the main bedroom. Dog hair everywhere. Suspicous marks on the duvet cover and a sock left in the bedside drawer. Yuck. Downstairs was disgusting. Mold everywhere and what I suspect is an asbestos ceiling that has a lot of disturbance (people have written their names in the sparkly popcorn texture). It was very unclean with mold in the bathroom and oily streaks on the countertops in the kitchen. . We ended up not using the downstairs at all - my husband died at 35yo from Mesothelioma, so we were not going to risk exposure.
