Waipu Cove Escape

Quiet spot handy for beach, surrounded by olive trees and gardens. The ideal place to unwind, and a spectacular night sky. Very happy to recommend..

Restful and peaceful

Lovely stay at this very serene, peaceful location with a thoughtful and beautiful interior. Really helpful hosts who lent us a sun umbrella as we left ours at home. Wondered about having some butter in the fridge along with the milk. Will definitely book again.

Sweet As

We enjoyed the well equipped kitchen & choice of outdoor sitting areas. The listing accurately described the accommodation & the location was good in that it sits in between Waipu & the Cove. The bathroom was nice and light due to a clear glass door at the back of the cottage. Although extremely private, some might find that a little different and so its good to know that ahead of time. You may like to take a couple of extra clothes hangers. We really enjoyed our stay.

Cosy and warm winter stay

Very well appointed north facing cabin with double-glazed windows. The hosts are very welcoming. We stayed almost a week in August and loved it! We cooked most of our meals without problems. It was a walking holiday so there was plenty of beaches for us to visit and walk on. We also used one of the kayak (nice!).
