We now would like wijomas to move us from Gold to Platinum.

Right now planning to arrive NPE sometime on Saturday staying until Monday.

One party here rethinking doing the paragliding.

Not yet. I need to find that link you sent me. Alternatively, you could send it to me again. That would play into my lazy man's way of doing something.

I was going to ask you to send it to me so I could send it to Bill I think they have multiple "cabins" there, IIRC...

Rates

NZD $200.00 per night per couple (min. two consecutive nights, price includes GST) $30.00 per extra person. Each cottage comfortably accommodates 4 people. A 50% deposit secures your booking.

Will,

Have you looked at any of these as possibilities? Thanks MR Google.

Thanks Bill - I have looked at a few of those, but many are quite a distance (well, 10 min walk ) away from the actual beachfront (where we are located). I'll probably be going down there again in 2-3 weeks if you want to pick a few and I can go and take a look.

But we can drive over to your place, no?. Remember, an awful lot of good stuff to drink can fit in the boot of one car so who would want to walk there.
