Mangorei Heights - New Plymouth

The location, how warm and cozy it was and the hosts make everything at this accommodation extra. From the bedding to the chocolates

Beautiful location, spacious with a good array of breakfast foods. With a well equipped kitchen, it gives occupants good choices around dining in versus dining out. The grounds were lovely with birds such as Kereru often seen nearby.

Being an open shower can result in more water on the floor than ideal.

Very clean well laid out rooms, easy access and fantastic views. Super quiet and Super Private. New feel to the accomodation, even tho the view of the mountain was hidden by low cloud, the views into the vally made up for it. very well kept grounds. I would recommend this spot.

The views, the location, the bath, the quiet, the privacy! Including breakfast was a bonus even if we didn't make use of it, the option is always a plus!

As someone who's worked in accommodation, having guests strip the beds was always a bonus find but never have we expected or even asked paying guests to have to do housekeeping, especially with a check out time before 11am and only TWO places to prep. Tipping for laundry was a bit off putting as well seeing as the ammenaties were provided. We stayed in the room with bunks as the main room was very small and the door kept hitting me when trying to get past the bed. When housekeeping jobs are asked of the guest, you definitely don't want to see greasy finger marks all over the kitchen draws... If you aren't stripping beds extra care could be taken here.
