Beautiful location.
Beautiful location. Quiet and peaceful. Beautiful grounds. So restful and relaxing. Everything had been thought of and home was well appointed and comfortable
Great spot as a base for exploring the Wairarapa. We stayed five nights and the studio was roomy, comfy and had everything we needed. Very secure and peaceful spot.
We stayed for our anniversary and really enjoyed it. Beautiful setting and very clean and well presented studio. Generous and delish breakfast as well :)
All good, and matching the listing description. Conveniently located on the main road (but quiet) and easy walking distance to the centre of Greytown.Property was nicely presented with quality toiletries and well-stocked kitchen.
Perfect stay over. Our hosts have put a lot of work into making the place memorable and comfortable in many ways, going the extra mile. Highly recommended.
Everything is so great about this property! Easy check in. Friendly hosts and very clean accomodation. We will definitely be coming back if we are ever around this area again. We loved our experience.
Although we only stayed overnight, Sly Studio was perfect! The MOST comfortable super king bed, quiet, plenty of space, perfectly clean with everything you need. Right in Greytown, close to everything, throughly recommend.
The studio was warm, equiped with the basics, clean and private. The owners were also really nice with our misunderstanding regarding the checkout time. Would recommend the place when staying in the area.
Such an amazing place, clean, tidy and everything we needed. Fantastic location! Options of outdoor spa bath and delicious diy breakfast was a wonderful addition. Thanks so much!! Hope to come again!
We loved our stay very much. The best location to walk to the shops/restaurants. Impeccably clean. Nice and quiet on a back section with off street parking and felt secure with a gate at the front driveway and keypad code to enter our studio.
