Jenny
This newly refurbished apartment is so close to the world class surf breaks of Whale Bay and Indicators (it is off the surfing car park). It is an 11 minute walk away from Manu Bay surf break as well. You have your own private entrance, outdoor shower, asking line to hang wetsuits, bathroom, room and kitchenette. It is tasteful and warm. Enjoy free Raglan Roast coffee between surfs or a quiet getaway.
Jenny lives on site and can assist with your questions or needs.
It is a safe and quiet neighbourhood but when the surf is pumping it gets busy during day light hours. It is a 1-2 minute walk away walk to the surf rocks.
