Staying on The Strand

Absolutely beautiful spot with a gorgeous view of Onetangi Beach. We had a car but we were able to walk to cafes/ restaurants. Really comfortable beds and living space with really well stocked kitchen. Loved having a code entry rather than a key. One less thing to worry about. Would definitely stay again and self cater.

Lovely place but under renovation

Stayed here before and had a lovely apartment. This time we arrived to scaffolding and limited access which we were not informed about. Our apartment was moved to another prior to check-in and it was not as nice as what we had requested. There was a significant lack of communication regarding safety of the scaffolding and we were harassed by 2 of the residents/property manager … a poor reception to our visit … considering reporting the lack of safety and signage to the building association as the property manager was extremely distressed so must be an issue

Christmas bliss

What an amazing place to spend family Christmas. Apartment is even better than the pictures suggest and the view is breath taking. We were blessed with amazing weather to enjoy the magnificent beach at our doorstep. Truly memorable, definitely repeatable.
