We had a weekend here with friends and this is the perfect place to stay in Mangonui (and indeed Doubtless Bay). A really quaint & cool colonial dwelling but with all the mod cons to make it comfortable. We stayed in Ono which hasnt been done up as have the rest of the units but still very comortable and with... More

We were very lucky to be given "Whitu" - what a fabulous comfortable,perfectly clean, homely space complete with kitchen and everything you could ever need. The big cosy bed was to die for and the veranda with spectacular views kept us well entertained. In fact we extended our stay it was such a treat to be here. I never wanted... More

Stayed here recently with a few colleagues. Perfect location right in the middle of town with the most fantastic morning views of the harbour! Everything you require is provided, full kitchen including microwave, even plunger coffee in the morning. Rooms are clean and tidy, nothing fancy but just perfect for a weekend getaway. If you can get the rooms with... More

This is a really quaint place to stay, decor is a bit dated but it doesn't matter as the view more than makes up for it. It has a lovely balcony you can sit out on weather permitting Lady owner is very pleasant and helpful. I would go back to this place anytime

We had a two bedroom apartment for one night but wish we had stayed two. The accommodation was clean and very well decorated, it felt very homely. Delia was very friendly and helpful too. Definitely recommend this place to stay!

Holidaying from London, stayed 2 nights and had a wonderful time, mainly due to Grant and Delia who accommodated every need. The room 'Ono' could have been updated somewhat to match the incredible location and hospitality of the hosts. Highly recommended. Slept on fold out couch, these could be replaced as sleep was disturbed by springs.

We spent two delightful days in this unique and beautifully decorated accomodation. Our lodgings were called the Tahi rooms and the private balcony opening from the living quarter and the bedroom looked directly over the water. From the comfortable bed (lovely cotton sheets), you could wake in the night and see boats lit up by the moon. The meal we... More

We agree with all the glowing reviews. Stopped there by chance and spent 2 nights. We were in a big room right on the water. The windows could be opened letting in beautiful fresh sea air. It is an old building but the interior was all understated elegance. It was March and so not much vehicular traffic until the sun... More
