Lovely views
Three guests (a couple plus one) enjoyed the fantastic views from the deck, the wonderful spa pool, and having a cozy place to read and puzzle over a stormy couple days. The beds are super comfortable! Some minor repairs needed around the house, but all in all, very functional and suited our needs. Communication with the owner was easy when a change to the reservation was needed.

All about the views
Cosy house in suburbs of Whanganui. Elevated beach views which also means lots of wind. The spa was wonderful. To access beach you can walk down the road and and along sheltered path behind beach. Big adventure playground at Castlecliff beach.

Great place in beautiful location.
Great place in excellent location - shame spa didn’t work for first night but worked it out for second. Would love the double bed in the front room so could wake up to sea but these are just quibbles - we enjoyed it. Would book again.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this wonderful place. The views from the lounge and seaward side bedroom and deck were spectacular. The added private street side deck was also a bonus
