Wonderful
Jan’s place is amazing! This is the second time I’m staying here and if im back in the area I’ll stay again. Everything that you need to relax and enjoy after a busy day at work. Close to shops, beach, some restaurants but once you get in you won’t get out. The sunset is one of the best i saw in years! A good glass of wine and dinner in the deck is a must!

Beautiful place and generous hosts
If I had known how nice this way going to be, I would have planned a longer stay. What a beautiful location and space, with a view of the ocean, beach and Kapiti Island. Very comfortable and hosts are very generous with providing some food/beverage items. Dedicated area for food prep was more than sufficient. Useful binder of information about the unit and area. Easy walk to a small area with some shopping and dining options, as well as a large reserve and the option to talk a long ways along the beach. Hosts were good about communication and tolerated a screw-up on my part.

Booked this stay for my daughter and friends as a girl's nights away. The property was absolutely lovely, and was very clean and modern. They informed me that bed was extremely comfortable, however the sofa bed was less so. The kitchen and bathroom were well equipped with everything thing they could ever need. The property had fabulous views, and was close to the beach. The host was very friendly, and the complementary beverages and cheese board on arrival was a really lovely surprise. Highly recommend. Would definitely stay again.
