Amazing setting in the bush with clean, characterful lodges and rooms. I'm a kiwi and I've been coming back for decades. It's never failed to impress

The cleanliness could definitely be improved, as there was a lot of dust and no body soap or shampoo provided. The rain made it difficult to drive to the cabin. However, the staff were kind.

10/10 Exceptional

I stayed 1 night here with family and really enjoyed it. We arrrived just at sun set and the owner met us. We went straight to the beach from the property via a forest track where you can watch the sunset. We had a large self catering cottage to ourselves and our room was ensuite. Very pleasant stay and really quiet location. I would definitely recommend it and I would stay again.

2/10 Poor

If you want to be ignored when emailing a complaint, stay in a filthy garden shed with no proper door to the outside and only a padlock to keep it shut, and see other guests’ pubic hair all over the toilet and hair in the shower, this is the place for you! It very clearly hadn’t been cleaned before we arrived as there were squashed dead bugs piled on the floor, walls, and caught in spiderwebs over the windows. The ceiling lampshade had mould spores literally all over it, the curtains looked like they’d been used as a cleaning rag and to wipe up spillages, and to add insult to injury the door was a literal wooden door for a garden shed with absolutely no seal and you could see inside from outside the room. The bugs and mosquitoes had an absolute field day with their free accommodation! Someone had left pubic hair all over the back of the toilet cistern in one of the communal toilets, the shower also had that lovely black mould, and there was hair on the shower and bathroom floor, with the sink having a wonderful finish of dirt inside it. We checked in as reception closed, and left before they opened as we couldn’t sleep due to our little room guests biting us all night, so made sure to document everything and sent a message to the stay as soon as we left. Their internet must be down because after 5 days, they’ve not managed to reply - 10/10 customer service here guys! The manager took the cowardly way out and refused me a refund via hotels.com with no explanation at all.

The property was fine, just what I would classify as modest accommodations. The access was a bit challenging.

We loved this accommodation! Such a neat experience staying in the middle of NZ native bush land right on the coast. Super close to where we wanted to be & it had everything we needed & more than expected. Very cool experience whether you are a kiwi or international traveller

Cabin in the woods

Nice little cabin in the woods with everything you could need. The locals parked a little too far into the road so the rental had to visit the undergrowth a bit to get past.

Room was adequate, sparse but had what we needed for 1 night. Internet was spotty at best and unavailable for much of our stay. The visiting Wētā birds on the deck made up for it!
