Fantastic views

The entire stay was my favorite location and place I visited along my month long vacation. We stayed several places throughout NZ and this one by far was the favorite among the group. Close to local shops(coffee/tea/grocery/shopping). The best views you will find, and close toany hiking trails!

Even better than the photos

Beautiful home, amazing views, great location. Well equipped kitchen and a few extras in the pantry that made preparing meals easier. Just remember to bring your linen - I didn’t see the details at the bottom of the listing, and website issues meant we didn’t receive the reminder. Thankfully the host sorted us linen!
