Family getaway

A lovely stay in a lovely location. The cottage was a little small for our larger family but nonetheless a nice stay. A 10 min walk to Mission Bay Beach, so close to the supermarket and a secure yard for our 1 year old to runaround in!

Great little place in a great spot

Beautiful little cottage with everything you need, clean and comfortable. The fence is fully enclosed so we could let the dog run around the yard without us having to watch her every second which was perfect.

Review of Cottage in Mission Bay

This cottage was in a quiet neighborhood. Met a few neighbors on our walk to the beach and grocery store. Both the beach & grocery store are close. Descriptions of the property are accurate and makes you feel more at home. This was a perfect place to decompress . I’d recommend this quant little place to anyone wishing to tř

Perfection!

This was our last night of a 10 day holiday and this was by far the nicest of the 4 places we stayed at. The cottage is spotless and beautifully decorated. Linens were top quality and the quality toiletries were a lovely touch. Plus it’s in such a nice neighbourhood with so many eateries to pick from. We both wished we owned it! Thank you so much for a wonderful last night.

Perfect location for a getaway

We truly enjoyed staying at this property and it is exactly as you see online. The location is perfect --- a 10 minute walk to the beach and all the shops, restaurants you will need. At the other end of the block, there is a New Market grocery store so you can eat in with the fully stocked kitchen. The pictures are spot on and the house is very comfy and cozy. We liked having secured off-street parking and the house was very quiet day and night. Our hosts were extremely kind and accommodating, even assisting us with an early check-in and accessing Sky Sports to watch our favorite teams. We would absolutely stay here again and have no reservations recommending it to others. Enjoy!

Just right for us

Nice comfy home just a short walk from Mission Bay waterfront. We were relaxing after the long flight from UK. House was good as was New World supermarket which is a short walk in the away-from-the-coast direction (though we drove it :( We swam at Kohimarama beach where there is a little swimming community and some changing facilities. Bus from Mission Bay was really easy along the coast to Britomart downtown then ferry to Devonport was a nice trip. Buy bus ATHOP pass at Bay Convenience shop on Mission Bay. Easy. All good.

Lovely stay in Mission Bay!

We had a great stay at this lovely property. There was an initial hiccup with access as the gate latch was broken but this was quickly sorted by the manager. The second bedroom is tight for space but functional.

BEWARE APARTMENT SIZE

Booked this property for a 6-day stay for our family of 5. First picture listed is that of the beach, yet the house is about half a kilometre away from the shoreline. All picture were strategic and DO NOT convey how tiny this property is. Advertised as a 5 person stay, but would only be suitable for a couple in my opinion. The second bedroom is literally a walkway to the back door from the kitchen that has bunk beds thrown in it. Our 2 teenage boys could not stand in there together at the same time with their suitcases, let alone have them open as well. Contacted the host immediately upon arrival seeking assistance in cancellation as there was no way our family could stay in that tiny apartment for 6 days comfortably. Was told partial refund would only
