Absolute 10 out of 5
This was our first time using a vrbo, going to our daughter's wedding in the local area. Carol & Gordon our hosts were great, always keeping us up-to-date as our trip got closer, and promptly responded to our emails. We were totally impressed /surprised when they invited us to their own home for a "home cooked meal ". Carol /Gordie your amazing hosts. The BnB is centrally located in Ruakaka, close to shops, the beach, lots of pubs/restaurants for your dining pleasure. The park like atmosphere of the BnB backyard was wonderful both morning and afternoon relaxing with a coffee or a glass of wine. We would/will definitely have to make a return trip. Thanks again for dinner!

Excellent accommodation
This accommodation was perfect for our stay. Set in a peaceful location on the rivers edge, beautifully clean, and fully-equipped with everything we needed. We received great communication from our hosts, which made check in a breeze. Ideally situated close to the motocross track, supermarket and shops. Would highly recommend as a place to stay, and will hopefully return some time in the future! Thanks.
