Views to see
Absolutely stunning view could look at it all day, lovely owner super nice lady, place is close to paihia. 5 mins away. Maybe one thing would be to dust the room a bit that's all I could see to be picky.

Beautiful and quiet
We found that the place was lacking TLC. For the second year in a row the owner's weren't there, the place is showing signs of being tired, out unit was not serviced. Found it pricey.
