"A good traditional kiwi bach, good for a break away from the city. Nice and close to the beach and tennis court, reasonably equipped."

"Loved the stay. Hot water kept on tripping but it was hot anyway so not too much of a problem."

"The property was perfect, but the booking was incorrect so we were not expected on the date arranged, causing us considerable anxiety and stress. Never again!"

"We really enjoyed our stay at the property. It’s a great rural setting with friendly donkeys. And close enough to the Karangahake gorge trails. The local swimming hole is a fun refreshing adventure. The house had everything you need and is very homely. Good selection of kids games and picture books."

"The photos look really nice so it was a little bit of a surprise when we arrived to see it what it was actually like. Mould on the textured ceiling in the bedroom and found a flea in one of the beds (after waking up with bite marks), we don't have any pets so we definitely didn't bring it with us. The unit was full of the owners stuff which cluttered an already small space and made it difficult to find a place to put things. The carpet in the bedroom looked to be original and everything felt...

"clean tidy thumbs up"

"The Lookout was perfect for a relaxing getaway. We loved the location, and the view over the ocean was pure magic. The property was secluded and it had everything we needed. Cleanliness could have been slightly better but this didnt hinder our stay. We would definitely come back!"

"Niki was a lovely host and the cottage was a delight. It was warm and the lovely decor made it very cozy. The kitchen and bathroom were well equipped and the deck was a great place to sit in the sun. Walking around the beautiful orchard and lakes was very relaxing and peaceful. Highly recommended . Thanks Niki for a lovely stay"

"Mainly a good place Sadly no wifi there Otherwise good Should of known more about hot water Do take own pillows "

"Irene was very good to deal with from start to finish, she also upgraded us at not extra cost to the inside apartment which was very nice to stay in. The location of the property was great only 1min away to harbour water."

"What a fantastic house for a big group. There were six of us ladies and we had plenty of space with our own rooms and plenty of bathrooms too. It was perfect for the dog with the estuary and beach being so close. The kitchen was very well stocked so preparing food was easy. Communication with the host was always quick and friendly. To top it all off we had wonderful decks to follow the sun around the house and the fire kept us cosy. Loved our stay. We'll be back!"
