Papamoa. Close to everything..

Beautiful house with loads of extras This house is accurately described in the listing and it exceeded our expectations. Beautiful home, well appointed with lots of extras. A very generous host. Tiggy the car was very patient with the four kids under 8 that we had. Communication was great - warm and responsive.

Excellent host, beautiful property The pictures and description on the site don't do it justice. Our first impression was that the house was much larger than we thought, with ample living space. The house is extremely well taken care of and you can tell right away that Lesa takes pride in her home. The pantry and fridge were stocked enough to get us going and there is too many extra amenities to mention, which makes it easy for people visiting from outside the country to acclimatize quickly and not waste time. I WILL mention a few extras: leaving us bread, butter, coffee, spices, condiments etc to get started, beach towels and coolers/ice packs for day trips, dishwasher pods and washing detergent and multiple racks for drying. We loved the area: a safe, family neighbourhood, so close to everything (as advertised in the title) and great walking paths right out the door. Lesa provided a nice manual describing the area, details on accessing Netflix (provided) and a very short list of house rules - all of which are just common sense.There was only one small area that could use improvement and that is the lack of storage in the primary bedroom. Not having access to a closet or dresser made it a bit difficult living out of a suitcase for 11 days.In summary, we're not sure how someone becomes a super-host but we whole-heartedly nominate Lesa to that position. She provided a clean well-maintained house, was thoughtful in providing items that travelers can't really pack for themselves, and was very responsive
