Sunset Shores at Titahi Bay by Aotearoa Escapes

Wake up to ocean views, golden sunsets, and the sound of waves right across the road. This peaceful coastal retreat sits directly on Titahi Bay beach, offering uninterrupted views from the bedroom and outdoor patio. It is the kind of place where mornings start with coffee overlooking the sea and evenings end with stunning sunsets over the Marlborough Sounds.

2/10 Terrible

Perfect spot for sunset!

The apartment is nice and it is indeed close to the beach.. However, there was a lack of attention of the cleaning personnel. They were dirty trays in the oven, dirty dishes in the dishwasher, and clothes in the dryer. The filters in the dryer were filthy The cleaner came quickly upon our request though.
