Idyllic Setting

Tranquil view of the water with everything we needed. Robyn provided nice starter items for breakfast-coffee, cereal, milk, sugar-which was so nice coming in after a long travel day. Very comfortable bed and nice to have laundry facilities. Highly recommend.

Wished I could have stayed longer!

I chose this property for my final days' stay after a month long first road trip through New Zealand. After having stayed I cannot imagine a better place for the trip's ending. The host Robyn lives on site but your space feels very private. Her hospitality and thoughtfulness were exceptional. I tend to prefer to mix in a fair amount of cooking and dining in when traveling. While there is not a full kitchen, it's set up well so that I had everything I required. Robyn provides a nice selection of cereal, bread, jam, teas, etc. The feel of staying here is as though you're almost at the end of the world, no cares, no worries! Direct views from the living area and bedroom are peaceful, spectacular and ever changing. Tide comes in and then recedes daily, revealing the intertidal flats where local birds like the oyster catchers forage. Amazing Sunsets. There are great places to explore by car from here and the Auckland International airport is an easy drive, perhaps 35 minutes. Next time I return to New Zealand I'll plan to stay a bit longer. Thank you Robyn!
