We have just stayed at Pearly Shells over the new year break and absolutely loved this Bach! The photo's don't do it justice, it is much bigger then we thought, it has a big kitchen, dinning and living area, the rooms are well sized, the bunk room is great for day naps! The outside is a very large area with its own veggie garden and plenty of room for the kids to play. Lots of games, toys this Bach really had everything we needed! Just a walk across the road to the beach and a short drive to the shops and fish n chip shop. We even had Mr whippy stop but on several days! We loved the beaches, Matai bay is very nice and we also went for a late lunch at the Carrington Estate just 5 mins up the road. Legri has been awesome to deal with and we would definitely stay again! :)

Our family stayed at Pearly Shells in October. We were very impressed with how clean the place was when we arrived. The home is very spacious and open, with lots of large areas for the kids to play safely outside, and a bonus that its fully fenced. Its literally one minute from the local beach and short drive to some of best beaches in NZ, this is a top spot for families. I also loved all the owners small touches of art inside and beautiful garden outside. Was well worth the 4.5 hour trip from Auckland!

We had a great 7 day here, it had all we required as we fished the days we could. All you want in the far North, to see, is in close proximity. We watched orcas from the beach, feeding on stingray. Very shallow beach so safe for the young one's, not stingrays. The owner was great and really looked after us. Will return to use this as our fishing base for the superb fishing, they are spoilt up that fishing Heaven. Go watch my video on the house, youtube Francis Urwin. Thanks again Legri.
