Port Howe accommodation from NZ$273

This property suited our needs on a very basic level. We had a place to sleep, a place to cook, and a place to sit. Communication with the host was ok – it sometimes took a bit of time to respond (may have been working, or otherwise occupied), but once he did, communication was quick. The Screened in porch was very nice, and the BBQ looked new. Wifi speed was very good. Accommodations are attached to the host, and we actually shared a wall, and in order for host to access his house, he had to go by our windows and doors. There were shear curtains on the bedroom window, and no curtains on the back door which he walked past to get to his car. only 1 towel provided. Had to ask for more - was provided with an old towel. Towels were well used. One was a beach towel. Only 3 plates, 3 bowls, 1 drinking glass, 3 wine glasses. Multiple mugs. Only 1 sofa to sit on - no coffee table or other chairs for relaxing. Third room is only 6ft x 7ft broken light fixtures in 2 rooms no hair dryer provided as indicated no drying towels for dishes "fire pit" was a bonfire pile. backyard littered with junked cars, garbage, tools, equipment. bathroom window would not fully close Not ski in/ski out, no beach, lake or golf course nearby as noted. 10km from Skiing, 15km from beach. There is another rental property about 20 feet from our vrbo. If both properties are rented and the host is home, the yard and area would be shared by 3 groups. Definitely not good for a 'Private Getaway"

Another Stellar Stay at Our Favourite Place in the Province

We had a lovely time. The cottage is well equipped for kids and in a beautiful location. The beach is great for little ones. I would come back in a heartbeat!
