Had a great stay, the house is in a fab location, can elk to lol the shops and close to the beaches. Plenty of space and it was nice and clean. Host was great at communication. Thank you for a lovely stay.
a short stay in a sweet & accessible to town kind of space - loved it. choosing to stay in town & drive 2 the beach vs stay at the beach and drive to town worked perfectly for our 2 nights. looking forward to the next time*
Lovely house in a perfect spot close to so many sight seeing locations and not far from gorgeous beaches. Good communication and clean tidy ready for our stay. Will definitely be back again
This property was great- homely and comfortable with everything we needed. Right in the middle of town, close to good food and coffee it was perfectly placed. Would definitely stay again!
This is a great house right in the center of town—walking distance to the restaurants, cafes, and supermarket. We loved using the wood stove in the lounge room, as it was a little cold while we were there.
The place was well looked after. We enjoyed our stay very much. Owner was lovely and helpful. Gave it a four rather than a five as the beds were too soft for us.

Hi Rachel, I am sorry that the beds were too soft for your liking. Beds are a case of personal preference and we have had many comments about how very comfortable the beds are, never that they are soft. Thank you for leaving the house so tidy.
It was nice being able to walk out the gate and be right in the middle of things. The house was very comfortable, and the manager was very responsive. Thanks for a lovely stay.
We loved our stay in this very relaxing townhouse. It has everything you need and a wonderful location, so close to town and lots to explore in the area. Ute is an excellent host and we appreciated receiving lots of helpful information. It was wonderful to bring our little dog. We would love to stay here again. Highly recommend!
Absolutely an amazing place to stay in Takaka. Close to town and attractions near by. House was perfect for our party of three. So cute and well put together. We would definitely look up again!
Perfect location and very accommodating of our needs
Great place for my toddler and my mother! Well equipped kitchen for cooking at home, lovely host who was friendly and very happy to help with extra requests. Great to have high chairs and a cot. Awesome playground just behind the house too. Hopefully will be back. :)
There is so much to explore in Golden Bay, with Takaka being such a central location. With this house being so central within Takaka - so close to cafes and restaurants, and having all we needed for a great holiday - including a sleepout for the teenagers. From Salmon fishing to great beaches to clothe shopping with a hippie vibe. All around a great five days. Would be keen to stay again.
We really loved staying here despite an initial surprise at there not being a tv or microwave. The host quickly sorted the microwave and with so many games and magazines to read we certainly didn’t miss tv. It made it a real break.
The host was very friendly and helpful. We would certainly recommend this place.
Our stay was everything we needed. The house was warm and clean and quiet.The sleepout was an unexpected bonus and so cosy. Loved being able to step up onto the main street and into a cafe.The house has been thoughtfully filled with books toys games and hand made treasures. Thank you Ute I hope we can stay again.
The property was great. The location is central. We didn't find it that easy to find intially, as there is a vine covering the fence, so it doesn't appear as the photo in the listing. But we found it in the end. There was a Saturday market at our door which was lovely. We had to move our car for that, which was not a problem. Ute is a lovely helpful host. We lacked a piso for lighting the gas and a tea strainer and she got those to us which was great.
This property gives you a great chance to step back in time and experience earlier life in Takaka. Beautiful wooden floors and high ceilings are supported with a powerful fireplace and heat pump. Get back to nature, cooking over gas rather than using microwave, and crack open a book rather than use wifi. The main bedroom is fairly quiet after 9:30pm when the neighbouring asian restaurant turn off their cooking gear. Bring an eye mask if you are sensitive to street lights, as the carpark behind the property is lit throughout the night. We enjoyed five sunny days in Takaka, trips around the coast and mooching about the main streets. It's worth a short stay here in the middle of 'town', before heading out to the coasts for a seaside escape. Very good communication, and and always, grateful to be able to bring our dog.

Thanks David for the feedback. We are currently working with the owner of the new Asian restaurant to address the issue with their cooking gear and the sound problem should be fixed soon. We are also adding thicker curtain to ensure that our guests have an enjoyable stay. Your feedback was very helpful.
Die Wohnung ist wirklich toll gelegen. Wir mussten erst etwas suchen, aber mit der Beschreibung von der Vermieterin war es kein Problem. Die Wohnung ist familiär eingerichtet und somit auch gemütlich. Wir haben es genossen, waren leider nur 2 Nächte dort. Beim nächsten Urlaub würde ich ganz klar wieder buchen !
This house had everything! Beautiful character home. Roomy, with a lovely verandah and tranquil garden, but so close to the action on Commercial Street. We prepared our Christmas dinner here and the kitchen was very well equipped. We hope to return one day!
