Beautiful house, great host, fantastic views

Richelle was a great host; the house was well prepared, including milk and coffee pods. She made sure the heating was on for our arrival which was quite nice! The views, as the title of the property says, are amazing, looking out over the bay. It's located in McAndrew Bay on the peninsula, and it's a quick drive back into Dunedin, or further down the peninsula to see the seals and sea lions. We truly enjoyed our stay!

Beachside

Stayed here over a wild weather labour day weekend. House is comfortable and cosy, the heaters work and other than the weather it was peaceful. Good base to explore the region.

Sun, space and private beaches!

Appropriately sharing the ambience and warmth of my late mothers name Rānui, our family thoroughly enjoyed thus home. Great amenities and close proximity to everything when needed. The 2min walk to the beach and playground a bonus! Highly recommended.
