Highly recommended!
We had a wonderful stay at this holiday home with our family. It’s clear the owners have put so much thought and care into every detail—everything felt brand new, spotlessly clean, and beautifully decorated with great taste. The home was stocked with a fantastic selection of books, board games, and high-quality kitchen appliances, which made it feel extra welcoming and comfortable. The location is also a standout—just minutes from Marine Parade and the ocean. Highly recommended!

Napier Ice Cream, Skates and Art Deco
Fabulous home in downtown art deco Napier. Easy flat walk into town. The home was clean, super comfortable with board games and puzzles and books to read. We nearly hired some skates to skate along the boulevarde directly beside the beach! Great ice cream shop with 30 flavours. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would stay again. Thanks.

A perfect Napier stay
This home is perfect when staying in Napier. Clean, comfortable, and very conveniently located. The center of town is just a few minute drive away, and the beach is an easy walk. We'd stay here again.

Lovely short stay
We really enjoyed our night at Magpie Cottage. Everything we needed there and a good shower, plus extremely snuggly sheets. Great to have a recycling bin to use as well. Nice street to go for a walk along and super handy to the beach.

The cottage is really beautiful, immaculate and immediately felt at home. We drove up the road and parked in the free parking spaces, ideal for getting into the centre of Napier. Hired electric bikes and went around the Wetlands beautiful.Wetlands.wetlandsrealbeautiful.
