Perfect home with beautiful pool & gardens, suited our 2 family group & dog wonderfully.
On site host, Kev was very respectful of privacy and went out of his way to lend a hand if we needed anything. We'll be back
Kev and Kim were excellent hosts, great communication waited for us to show us around and will definitely be coming back for the hospitality they provide. Entry to the bridgehouse, The jetty, farm , the fishing activities, excellent pool, Stylish interiors, everything of great quality. Great fun for friends and family.

Thank you so much Suhail. We could not have had a better group to stay as our guests . Thank you for looking after our home as if it was your own. The house and grounds were left tidy with all dishes done and kitchen clean.
A beautiful friendly family that we would happily have back anytime. A total pleasure.
Thanks again

On-site person was intrusive during the stay. Mowing lawns, dog wondering around, walking by pool during the day, cleaning pool.
For the price it was not private, lighting poor, remotes for tv didn’t work. Great location

Hi thank you for your feedback.
Firstly I know this review wasn't written by Mike but in fact written by his wife so I am addressing her. I will address each point in the order written.
Intrusive…
I tried to be off-site as much as possible and any work done was not with out consulting you first. It clearly states that I host on-site. My grounds are extensive and require constant up keep for my guests to fully enjoy the beauty of the property.
Mowing the lawn
Once again I tried to communicate with you as to when you would be off-site so I could mow. You gave me a time saying you would be gone by 11am I stayed away till 11am then when I arrived home you then told me another hour so I went off-site again. Returned at 12 and you were still on-site. I started to mow as we were expecting rain… again your communication was far from acceptable or clear.
Walking past the pool??
I walked past the pool once to feed my chickens and take my washing in..MOST guests simply say hi Kev and I return the greeting as I pass by careful not to intrude.
Cleaning the pool?
This was done after asking you when you will be out so as not to interfere or intrude.
Surely you see the importance of keeping a massive 75,000lt pool clean not only for you to enjoy but others that follow? You were not even in site when I cleaned the pool.
The lighting is fine and never had a complaint before about the lighting.
Remote for TV doesn't work
Umm yes it works fine you had the power off to the actual TV so in that case yes it won't work🤔
To be honest the communication was poor at best from you and I could tell that there was going to be an issue as soon as you arrived and your wife would not shake my hand or barely acknowledge me when I introduced myself. Mike you seemed pleasant when you were actually allowed to communicate. I suggest in the future you read the description more carefully and pick a place that doesn't say it has on-site host.. But she may still be unhappy 😉
About the host
Hosted by KimHu191
HI My name is Keven and my beautiful partner is called Kim. We are excited to be hosting you on this amazing slice of paradise. We have re located to the far north from the West coast surf village of Raglan where I have lived and raised my 2 beautiful sons for the past 26 years. We loved Raglan but it was time for a life change and a bit of flat East coast water to fish and dive in. I ran a campground in Raglan and enjoyed working with tourists and locals alike. This is definitely a different clientele, but the one constant is people on holiday are usually happy and thats the hook for me... who wouldnt choose to be dealing with happy people on holiday as your job... i love it! Our hosting style is to check you in then leave you be. We are however always available for some friendly advise or to help out with anything should you need it or simply a chat over a cold one.
