Hike the island's scenic trails for panoramic bay views before cooling off at one of three pristine beaches. Rent kayaks from the seasonal café to explore hidden coves or join guided tours spotting native birds in regenerating forest areas.
Great service. Even though it was a basic room for 2 Adults and 3 Children in separate bedding, it had everything we needed and the kitchen area was well equipped.

Haka House has the best location. Incredible views from the common area. Check-in was easy with clear instructions for arriving after hours. Room was clean and bed was comfortable.
Only downside was ensuite has a bit of a sewery smell. With door shut it doesn't impact the bedroom.
