A spacious home, handy to the shops and beach. We were very thankful for the air conditioning. Easy to find and nice and quiet. The master bedroom was nice and spacious. The deck needs replacing and it looks like the host is replacing this now.

Coming back to Golf Rd
Amazing..... Kapiti Island is a beautiful place to see in the morning and taking a stroll down memory lane along the beach.. Managers/Owners are very easy to communicate with and very accomodating. As a person who grew up in the Kapiti Coast, this will be mine and my family's destination spot. Hoping to beable to come back with whole family next time..... Well worth the stay... Thank you very much

We had a great stay here, it is very close to the beach and Paraparaumu Beach shops. The property is easy to find and the off street parking is easy to navigate in and out. The house is nice and comfortable with a fantastic view of Kapiti Island.

The property had basically everything that we needed for a comfortable stay. Yes it is an older property; but it's tidy and in a good location, handy to the beach and shops. It's in a quiet location, nestled amongst other properties but with a sense of privacy and a nice slightly limited view of the sea and Kapiti Island. You can see the South Island in the distance on a nice day. We'd look to use it some time in the future.

Really enjoyed our stay at Golf cottage, it was exactly what we needed whilst visiting relatives. Brendan was really helpful and welcoming making living in the bach for 2 weeks easy and comfortable. Having facilities to do laundry really makes a difference when packing. Theres a lovely lady next door who likes a chat and it just felt so easy to blend into the area. Everything is either a 2 minute walk, including the beach or a 2 minute drive. Finally the new highway to Wellington really makes it easy to get back and forth.
