Gary's place is wonderful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The view from the deck is beautiful, the house is comfortable and has everything you need for a relaxing stay. The proximity to local attractions was just right and we would definitely recommend this home as a perfect holiday retreat. Communication with Gary was top notch.

Fantastic location, just over the road from beautiful Ligar Bay. So much fun at the beach and in the lagoon and close to Totaranui for day trips and Takaka for supplies. Great outdoor area to enjoy the sun and had everything we needed.
