I stayed with Cherry with my 18 year-old daughter for 7 nights on holiday. I thoroughly enjoyed our time at Cherry's big and cozy house. Cherry is an intelligent, open heart and thoughtful host.
She always tries to find out if everything is OK with us throughout the stay. Especially when my daughter was not feeling well and stayed inside the room the whole day, she kindly cared for that like a real family does. The room was quiet and the living room and the dining room are very light with full of sunshine. Her dog, Lulu is very friendly and adorable. Oh, I miss a walking with Lulu to the beach nearby. The location is also the best, within easy short walking distance as are a number of restaurants, supermarkets and two beautiful beaches: Browns Bay and Torbay. Next time I come back to NZ, I would definitely come back to Cherry's home. It was also very kind of her that she brought me to her friend's home to enjoy yoga practice together, as I love Yoga. I would highly recommend the homestay with Cherry. Thank you so much, Cherry.Host reply
Thank you for visiting Marrie.
It was a pleasure to have you and your daughter staying here.
I wish you could have stayed longer to teach me more Yoga
Safe travels and look forward to seeing you next time.
How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.
When do I pay?
Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 199 $£€ for longer term bookings) using a choice of payment methods: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal (not available in certain countries). You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
When can I share my contact details?
Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
