In this day and age of desk top publishing and computer generated design work, we are simply not…read moremaking use of design companies and printers anymore. These days any Aiden, Caleb or Keegan can slap together a letterhead, business card and marketing campaign. I felt as if I could do it myself, but was greatly mistaken, so I called in the professionals. It was only a small job printing invitations, but the girls offered me a level of service that is equal to supplying them with months of work. My printing was delivered within deadline time, and artwork approved via e-mail. Service with a smile, and considering that they provide a skilled professional service, it was very affordable.

Fantastic prices and service. Always quick to reply or complete jobs, and always friendly!read more

It's kind of a mix of Recruitment consultancy and Project Management consultancy. I am on their books following an in depth interview process that felt more like a meeting than interview. My contact is Matt, who is a very experienced consultant who has a great network of businesses and a friendly and confident approach. He maintains great communication and the whole process is a dialogue which makes it feel more like a business transaction rather than the sometimes painful and stressful process that finding a job can often be.

My stay there wasn't recently so things may have changed if the management/governing body is now…read moredifferent. Also, the name Aio Wira doesn't appear to mean anything, if they're claiming it's a Maori word, it appears they've made it up. I was prompted to post this as I saw their name somewhere and then remembered how poorly they treated hygiene, which is very relevant now that we have Covid. When I stayed there for a weekend, the cook had the flu in a MAJOR way and I witnessed her constantly sniffing while preparing the food, wiping her nose on the back of her hand and actually sneezing on the food. Yet, they did have other staff around that could have cooked/prepared the meal instead. I decided to not eat there and I got my dinners from the caravan cafe at Bethells Beach instead. While down there chatting to friendly locals, they laughed their heads off when I told there where I was staying and said, no wonder you're down here. They'd not heard good things about the place and had the impression the food wasn't great and it was not exactly the most fun place to go to. They were right. I didn't find the manager or staff friendly and most of the other guests were very serious and not that nice either. I was annoyed as I was looking for a relaxing weekend away as I had a stressful job. I asked them what was the latest time I could arrive on the Friday night as I had a long way to drive and was settling my pets in with the house sitter and they weren't used to me going away. The manager just would not give me the latest time I could arrive and was lackadaisical and kept saying "any time". So I arrive at 9pm and she gets really pissed off! It was all downhill from there, she appeared to hate me after that and I was there for 3 days. Next time I think I'll just rent a bach and not try a retreat again, a massive waste of money, not friendly or particularly social at all, couldn't eat the sneezed on food, wishy washy place and management altogether. I had far more fun laughing with the locals down at the caravan cafe at the beach! If you're not going to be nice to your PAYING guests and you create a strange atmosphere at your retreat, instead of a pleasant, at least somewhat friendly and happy environment, then I'm afraid you can expect reviews like this.

This place is AWESOME! Di, the caretaker is very friendly, knowledgeable and helped create a…read morewonderful retreat setting for our lil' gang visiting Aio Wira recently. The meals provided were all made onsite from organic (where possible) and fresh ingredients, they also were very creative and delicious! (all vegetarian, and since we had a vegan amongst us also accommodating). The large fireplace in the main room provided us with warmth and ambience. There is also a sauna and spa you can use, at no extra cost. Each room came supplied with torch and heaters (byo sheets, pillow case and towel). The grounds and walking tracks were well maintained and enjoyed by all. The gardens and grounds overall were an ideal setting for a retreat. The Centre can sleep up to 20 people, more if you want to bring your own tents, camping gear, etc. We were informed that this place has been around for approx 40 years and is run/owned by a trust, it is obviously well known as bookings need to be made well in advance; we looked at re-booking and they had two weekend spots left free for the year - and it is May. Great place to hire, I look forward to our next visit already:)

I would enthusiastically recommend Webster Law, and especially Nick Smith, if you are considering a…read morereal estate purchase. Recently we have been going through the deeply not-fun experience of trying to buy a house in the overheated bubbly Auckland market. Through this otherwise grim process, Nick has been very helpful as we attempted to get all our due diligence ducks in a row before heading to auction. In one particular instance he helped us discover that one property that *seemed* to have a legal rent-able unit, in fact only had a unrentable "granny flat". We are just completing a home purchase now, and through it all we have found Nick to be very thorough, professional, conscientious, and good humoured. We will definitely be going back to Webster Law for our other legal needs going forward.

I used Cube to print all the work I was designing for a wedding. The staff were amazing. They…read morehelped me from start to finish and even helped me to find ways to make it fit my client's budget. Through them I printed invites, programs, a seating plan, RSVP cards, and a whole lot more printed for a rather reasonable price. They were professional at every step of the way and went out of their way to get me a quick quote in just a few hours when some things had changed. I had already done all the artwork but they are able to design things for you. Whether it's a new logo, banner or a simple flier that you want done, they can do it. It really takes all the stress out of it, especially when you're kind of fumbling your way through it. It did get a bit expensive when I wanted to print larger than an A3 piece of paper, which is just something to bear in mind. But other than that my whole experience with Cube was awesome.

I am not generally a fan of recruitment consultants from either side of the fence as employer or…read morejob seeker. They generally look to fill jobs as quickly as they possibly can and don't add much more value than a CV filter service. I have however been impressed by the team at Row Law Max who focus on professional infrastructure, engineering and management jobs. They take the time to fully understand the position of individuals and add personality and future aspirations into the mix rather than just focusing on previous experience. Hamish is a pleasure to deal with and he maintains great relationships with a variety of businesses to give candidates the best possible chance of finding a great job fit. Contact for an appointment.
