Sea Breeze at The Chocolate Box
We loved our stay at The Chocolate Box, perfect fit for our family, lovely, comfortable and really nice. We felt spoilt to be near the ocean, off the main road, to have the massage chair and be so close to the Thermal mineral pools..

Overall good stay, caters for different sized groups. Not quite situated where we wanted to be but we should have asked more questions prior to booking so our arrangements could have been better.

Great stay!
Fantastic little home in a great location. So close to town and all the activities we did. The house itself was clean and tidy. Toys and books for the kids was great. Perfect for a family. Only downfall was the sofa-bed was not comfortable at all and we couldn’t use it. We would stay again if visiting New Plymouth.

Home away from home
We really loved our stay here. It had everything we needed plus some lovely seasonal extra touches which we really appreciated like a wee Christmas tree and some Christmassy toys for the kids. Great location with a short drive to the beach, Paritutu and town, and 15 minutes walk to the new playground at Kāwaroa. Our kids also enjoyed the playgrounds and bike/scooter tracks at the schools across the road. Comfy beds, nice courtyard area, and we also loved the hanging chair and the massage chair. Highly recommend.

Fantastic family home in superb New Plymouth location
Our family visits New Plymouth often to visit family and we were so stoked to find this place to stay. Awesome location so close to town, the coastal walk way, Paritutu Rock, Iona dairy for giant icrcreams etc. Lovely place to stay and the kids appreciated the toys, swinging chair and massage chair! We would love to come back again.

This house was beautiful and all modern facilities. We were down for the Taranaki womens 4s so was ideal for the greens. Would suggest looking at the head of the shower, other than that a 10+ from us all.

Fun and relaxing time in New Plymouth
We came from the states to visit our son and grandson. They live in Whangarei and we wanted to explore the West side of the island. New Plymouth was fun! The walks along the ocean were beautiful! We went to he museum and played mini golf twice! Our 9 year old grandson has a blast! The cottage was great! It had everything we needed and the sleeping was great! Thank you for helping our stay be delightful! ~Claudia and Brian from Merlin, Oregon USA
