About the host

Hosted by Kiri Ko

Host profile image
Coromandel has been my home for over 20 years. Five years ago I found my patch of paradise. I’m a yogini, artist and event organiser, a mother of two young adults who enjoys sharing the good life.

Why they chose this property

At the end of the road, surrounded by the Coromandel Forest Park, I love being in Nature.

What makes this property unique

Wholeness River Haven is abundant in fresh water. We’re bordered by the Tararu River. Easy walks to waterfalls. Explore the river, or just enjoy the bird song in this peace of paradise. It feels far away from the hustle, while only 15 mins drive from Thames town.
