We stayed here on vacation and loved the large kitchen area. The owners were attentive and friendly. The location and innovative style made this home very unique. Great views on the drives in and out and close proximity to Tauranga.

We loved our stay at the Cottage /cabin. It was peaceful and gorgeous. Liz ,the owner made us feel really welcome. Would definitely stay a bit longer next time.
Really enjoyed our stay here. We were a group of 3 but the cabin was still spacious. Very warm and cozy during cold-times. The cabin was so peaceful and quaint which was very needed especially as we lived in such a busy city. Overall, it had everything we needed the owners were very accomodating and kind from check-in to check out. Will return again for a future trip!🧡
We had nice time. House was very clean, warm and had all features we needed. Interesting stairs design. The host was very nice and welcoming. Thank you very much for having us.
Relaxing/recovering post-op. Wonderful little house, comfy bed, has everything you need. We really appreciated the pellet burner fireplace too! Nice calm location but not too out of the way either. Thank you!

Good last minute get away
Beautiful property but no photos of stairs, it did say that the stairs were narrow but we thought nothing like that. Super hot in the summer but that is hard to fix. Over all good stay just minor things that can’t be helped like the drive way
Cosy little cottage, great location, owner Liz very friendly and helpful, could do with replacing existing, old bed options with something a little more comfortable.

Perfect for my requirements, lovely to get away from the hustle and bustle of Tauranga traffic and come back to some country paradise. Thank you so much for sharing your delightful cottage.
Lovely location, well appointed tiny home, lovely host, great info. The fireplace was an added bonus. We had a lovely stay and enjoyed this home very much. The only suggestion we have is that the bed really needs upgrading.
Lovely rural property Everything worked, and wifi was amongst the bestVery convenient for TaurangaGood array of essential supplies provided We were not confident about using the stairs during the night for bathroom breaks, so used the pull out sofa bed instead downstairs, and that was fine
A lovely hideaway and base to visit the Bay of Plenty
We had a nice stay in Whakamarama. The cottage was a lovely hideaway and it was great location to visit the sights in the Bay of Plenty. The house had everything you could need, the wifi was good and we had no problems with connectivity.
I would recommend that visitors bring slippers for the winter as the fire warms up the house brilliantly but the floors are cool.
We found the mattress on the bed very uncomfortable and the show pressure was very low. With these upgraded the house would be perfect.
Very snug warm settings and aesthetic. The fireplace was incredible and overall very relaxing and welcoming. It would have been nice to know that there was no phone coverage there but aside from that, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Super cute little cottage with warm fire. Everything you need to escape the busy world. Would definitely recommend staying at the Slice of Heaven Cottage
A beautiful cottage which we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in. It was very stormy weather during our stay, but it was a great place to sit in front of the fire, read a book and enjoy the view of Bush from the windows. We will definitely return. Thank you for your friendly hospitality.
It really is a slice of heaven! Pictures online don’t do it justice! Amazing little cottage to escape from crazy day to day life! Close to Tauranga but far enough out to feel secluded! We went for our anniversary and it was the perfect way to celebrate! Would 100% go back again! Thank you for letting us share a piece of your beautiful property
