Independent in Pongaroa from NZ$154

"We can't remember how many times we've been here but we do know that every time it's been WONDERFUL!!! Mollie and Mou are great hosts and so friendly and the bach, the view and the isolation are just so beautiful. We love it!"

"Absolutely stunning- we had a great stay. Lots of action all around our birdseye view. Lovely walks and very peaceful too. Only downside was no tea, coffee, salt or pepper. Definitely would love to stay again "

"Could not fault it, clean quite and everything we wanted for our weekend break. Met our host Dave and was very helpful with local knowledge. Would highly recommended this property for any couple looking for a quite night away with all luxuries you need in an apartment."

"We loved this place and the hosts ! The cottage is very clean well appointed, the fire was going and the electric blankets were on when we arrived. Hans gave us a very interesting chat on the history of the station. We are already booking another stay, cant wait to go back !"

"Was very nice stay very quiet, tidy and warm. Bit noisey due to being next to state highway but not too much of a bother. Was a lovely stay. "

"Recently renovated kitchen, living room, bathroom. Very cozy (we had a storm the first night). Wood burner was great, plenty of wood tho' we were short on paper to light it with. Great being so close to the water. Rest of weekend was great weather, Such a great spot. Lighthouse very visible in the full moon light!.A nice mix of fresh & new and 'original' bach - the bedrooms. They were smallish but fine for what we needed. Great that the bach was not over decorated with kiwiana. Lots of comfortable seating & a big table. We would reccommend it."

"Thank you so much! The best hosts, the house was great with the most amazing views."

"What an absolutely stunning place to stay! It's conveniently located just a stone's throw away from the town. Stylish decor and modern amenities, and I can't emphasise enough how incredibly comfortable the bed is! Plus, the host is incredibly friendly, adding a personal touch to the stay. Highly recommend!"

"Very clean, well appointed.Fabulous views!"
