Fabulous base to enjoy Karikari Peninsula

We all loved our stay at this lovely house. Fiona was very prompt in her responses and a pleasure to deal with. The place reflect the photos. It's spacious, clean, and a great base to explore Karikari Peninsula. Has great wi-fi which the teens appreciated; the beds are comfortable; kitchen has everything you would need, and the neighbours were friendly and approachable. Would stay again. Thank you so much Fiona for letting us stay.

Piece of paradise

Fiona is an amazing host, she went above and beyond for our group. House is lovely, the kitchen has everything you need and can hear the waves from the bedroom. Great place to stay for fishing, surfing or just relaxing. Thanks again for the great stay.

Great Location

Great location, great house, well equipped. The only negative coment is the beds in the guest rooms were very soft for adults to sleep on. The bed in the main bedroom was great.

Tokerau Beachfront

This house is perfect for a family with it's proximity to the lake and the ocean. The house is just the upper level as the bottom level is another residence but there is still plenty of room for a large group. We enjoyed the views from the expansive deck but it was a shame that there was fire ban as we would have loved to use the outdoor open fire. We would recommend this property for a stay at the quiet end of Tokerau with thoughtful and accommodating hosts.

Lovely, comfortable house

We had a wonderful time here. The house is very close to the beach. Apart from the splendid view you can also hear the sea when the windows are open. The interior is tasteful and in excellent conditon, the kitchen very well appointed. The master bedroom is comfy and has a good shower. We can highly recommend this place.

The location was fantastic, absolute beachfront - I can see why Fiona & the family live there permanently. Very quiet and out of the hustle and bustle of New Year crowds. The beach was amazing, often we were the only people on it, even on New Years Day!

A great spot.

A great spot. The remoteness from the holiday crowds was very relaxing. Like having your own private beach. And lake. And forest for the kids to explore in. Having the the stereo wired to optional outdoor speakers was a big plus too.
