Property is an oasis in the city. Quiet, well kept, super nice people, super close to the beach and walkable restaurants (highly recommend Tokyo Bay!) This is not an ultra fancy and ultra modern resort - that's not why you are staying here and that's not what they are trying to be. As others have mentioned, no AC but it really isn't necessary - open the windows and let the air flow through (fans were provided if necessary). 5 stars, would ABSOLUTELY stay here again!

We paid $350 per night and for that price, we were expecting there to be air-conditioning. The decor was a bit dated and it felt like they scrimped wherever possible eg toiletries, toilet paper. On the plus side, it was in an amazing area - right next to the beautiful beach and walking distance to a vibrant town with multiple wonderful restaurants/shops.

Lovely location and our stay was really enjoyable. The only negative was the fan was on which was noisy and we were unable to turn it off. The cleaners told us it could only be turned off from the downstairs unit (we were in the upstairs unit) which seemed a bit strange. It led to the unit beside us complaining about the fan noise but it was out of our control.

We were welcomed by the manager and her assistant almost as if we were friends. By walking only 100 meters we had an amazing view of Rang-it-to-to Island and a beautiful beach lined with Po-hu-to-ka-wa trees.

Lovely setting. The gardens are amazing. Very helpful, friendly staff. Super clean rooms. Close to top class restaurants and beach. Wasn’t aware of any recycling facilities. Parking is incredibly tight also. An extra armchair was really needed. One small sofa in 2 bedroom unit wasn’t sufficient. When requested, none was available but noticed one in photo online. However would definitely stay again.
