We had a fabulous time at the treehouse. The two rooms with ensuites was a perfect set up for our group of two couples. Great location with private access to the beach only a minute's walk away. Handy to lots of cafes and bars too. Lovely setting and our host Carlo was delightful. Helpful when we needed it but not invasive of our space or privacy

The Tree House accommodation was amazing and had everything we needed for our stay. The kitchen was well equipped with a fridge, microwave, and oven. The TV has one channel, but Carlo provided plenty of DVDs and a hard drive with movies on it. We didn’t even turn the TV on as we were too busy enjoying the beautiful island. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and in an awesome location. Carlo and Roberta have been living on the island for 25 years, so they are very knowledgeable and provide the best information about the island and what to see and do.Carlo and Roberta are wonderful hosts. Our stay with them was everything we could have hoped for and more.

Carlo our host was great to deal with. This is an older property in a great location. The house doesn't have a view but is a 2 min walk to the beach. It has a well established garden with big tree's that was great for shade. Its next door to the Edgewater on the south side all close to the airport and the main town. It handled myself and 2 teenage boys well.

Lovely wee flat under the treehouse, Carlo kindly let us keep our bags at the flat until we could check-in. Kitchen had everything we needed & I loved being able to watch movies stored on a hard drive, not many places have this facility. We were able to wash our clothes also plus a dryer to use if needed. There was a path at the end of the drive towards the beach that took you directly to the beach where we watched the sunset & whales morning & evening. Best snorkeling at Aroa. Walked to a nearby resort for happy hour cocktails. Carlo gave us some delicious Island passionfruit.

The host Carlo was lovely, very helpful. Accommodation itself was very clean and everything we expected and more. The beach was at the end of the driveway, one of the main bus stops was 3 doors down at Edgewater. We ate most of our meals at the table outside. Filtered water available on tap.
