Unreal views & the best spot to relax!

This place was awesome! The cottage was super cozy and had everything we needed. The view over the harbor was insane, especially at sunrise from the pool. The spa at night was perfect for relaxing. Everything was really clean, and the hosts were honestly the best—super nice and gave us total privacy but were always there if we needed anything. Just an all-round amazing spot. Would 100% stay again!

Heaven on earth

I told the host on leaving that "I am a Christian and I am going to heaven" (when I die). I said, "if you want to know what heaven is like, this is it."That is the ultimate 10 out of 10 for me.

A little slice of paradise

I had a marvellous stay, it’s a little slice of paradise, hidden along the road between Waihi and Katikati. The pool, spa pool, lemon orchard and waterviews were all wonderful, the garden was filled with bird song, and Kris looked after me really well while giving me all the privacy I could ask for during a relaxing stay. Would 100% recommend (and come back!).
