Wake up to view across the lake. And a stroll to the surf. Right on the loop walking track, kids (and adults) kayaked, surfed and walked the town tracks. Lots to hinden gems also in the area, the hill top garden, make sure you also check it out at night, it's magical, great local artists to check out, and pihama lavender farm. Nice and relaxed place to stay with family, and our son enjoyed a boxing lesson with James. Can cook if you want or just walk around the corner and you are in the town centre.
