Summary: We enjoyed our time here, made for a much needed 3 day getaway with the doggos. Unfortunately the weather in Nov was a little variable so we couldn't quite make as much use of the outdoor facilities as we might have, but when the weather had a break the deck area was lovely. Still went for beach walks (albeit a bit wrapped up against the cool winds that weekend) - its really quick to walk to the beach. Would definitely stay again.

Summary: I must say the view was just awesome and calming. We noticed that we were in complete silence and we live rural so it was pleasantly bizzare that it was quieter than home. Easy access and enjoyed the beach walks which was 5 min walk.

Summary: Just as described, really liked that there were lots of choices sit outside, in or out of the sun or wind. Local store has a very small selection but great takeaway and ice cream - closed Mon-Tues.

Summary: We came to Hawkes Bay for the Robbie Williams concert. It was good to get away from the crowds in Havelock North and Napier. Waimarama is a great spot, a really nice beach community. The house itself was well set up, but we did feel the heat at night time, I am sure we could have cooled it down a bit more if we tried. But a great stay.

Summary: This is a unique property, well worth visiting. We spent four nights here and had a delightful stay. Four seasons in one day weather was no problem, with plenty to do inside and out. Definitely recommend. Hosts were very responsive to communications, and everything was easy to navigate.
