Independent in Collingwood from NZ$162

"Lovely Hôtel in a handy spot. Hosts were very friendly and approachable. Room was spotless. Had a great stay. "

"We had such a great stay at Gunado! The bach was really cosy, and we immediately felt at home. We did most of our grocery shopping in Tākaka, only a few kilometres away. Great lunches at The Dangerous Kitchen :) also in Tākaka. Our host, Jen, kept a handy guide book and we communicated easily via in-app text on Vrbo. Thank you Jen! We highly recommend Gunado."

"What a beautiful place to stay - yes it's a bit of a drive getting there but so very worth it...relaxing, peaceful and such a stunning location. Lying in bed watching the sunset over the hills was a highlight for me. Really enjoyed exploring the estuary and walking along the beach admiring all the other beach houses nestled in the bush. Met a few locals out walking who were very friendly and happy to chat. Collingwood is worth driving to for a meal - whilst not many options, the tavern does really good fish and chips and there was a great little food truck with a nice lady selling falafel salad bowls that were delicious. For good hikes in the area, Anna the lovely host suggested the Kaituna Track - walked to The Forks and back, absolutely stunning. Loved staying in this bach - highly recommend"

"This is a wonderful cottage. The garden is lovely and has a creek running through it. ideal if you want a base for exploring Kahurangi National Park and Farewell Spit, but would also be a great place to spend some time relaxing in the garden."

"John was very welcoming and the amenities were great. Amazing setting. Peaceful and tranquil."

"Fabulous beach house with wonderful views, and we loved watching the tide come and go from our windows. The kitchen was very well equipped, the house had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay, and was very clean and breezy. I would highly recommend this house for a couple or a family, since there are 3 bedrooms. "

"Very friendly staff, comfortable bed and well supplied tea and coffee station."
