Great Location near Ocean

Great little cottage, not big but very comfortable and well equipped. Close to ocean, beaches and the Punakaiki rocks, among other destinations. Loved the shower floor made from rocks, felt great on sore feet after a long hike!

Great view and great location

We stayed at the Rimu cottage for two nights. It was ideally located to walk to the Pancake rocks and blow hole at Punakaiki, and also just down the road from amazing scenic views and culture at Hokitika. The cottage was well described in the listing, comfortable and clean. It made a great home base for our time on the West Coast.

Nice place

Beautiful property and location. Interaction with the booking agency wasn’t great. Initially the price was shown in US dollars but this was in no way clear so was a bit of a shock when I realised I’d been charged a lot more than expected. This is in no way a reflection on the property itself or the owners.
