The Home From Your Dreams

Summary:
Perfect for families and groups of friends, this vibrant Ohana property offers the ideal mix of comfort, space, and entertainment. Enjoy hours of fun with a ping pong table, foosball, gaming console, and a relaxing hot tub—something for everyone to enjoy.

Inside, you'll find a spacious lounge, dining, and kitchen area, designed for both relaxation and connection. With three well-appointed bedrooms and two full bathrooms, there’s plenty of space for everyone to spread out and feel at home.

The Space:
This 90s era house as loads of character! After the recent renovations, the bathrooms are to die for! We turned the garage, into the perfect area for kids, teens or those adults who act like kids. It includes, pingpong, foosball, and Prime.

There is a toilet downstairs, with a laundry room in the garage.

For warmth we added a Heatpump and heaters in each bedroom. We also have extra blankets and electric blankets.
The outdoor spa is a must!

One bedroom with a king and ensuite downstairs, the 2 remaining bedrooms are upstairs, one with a queen and a floor mattress, and the other with 2 single beds, one is a pull out. We have an additional fold out single which can be moved anywhere, as well as a fold out single in the games room (not advised during winter months)

Outside you have a BBQ and a 4 person hot tub.
