Lake Puketi ski-in/ski-out rentals

Unbelievable sea-water view. Water is litterally on your door step and 100% as advertised. Overal, it is very relaxing and a very good hang out place for any type of weather. Host was also very friendly and very helpful.10/10 for me.

Property was above our expectation thanks. Host was friendly and showed interest in our stay and made us feel at home. Quiet retreat well worth it. Thanks

Absolutely loved staying here. Short walk over the road to the beach. Really appreciated the Easter eggs and all the other snacks left for me. Host was very welcoming and helpful. Will definitely stay again.

We throughly enjoyed our stay at ‘Once Upon A Tide ‘. It was such a peaceful retreat and the views from All the rooms are stunning. The house if probably the cleanest I have stayed in and the decor and extra bits like Homemade cookies were a lovely welcome. We were only there for less than 24hrs, but it felt a lot longer and we will definitely be back!

We had a great stay, thank you! The bach is just as described, cosy and warm and the beds are super comfy. It's a great spot for kids to play in the fenced garden. We enjoyed the table tennis and the short walk the the beach where the coffee was excellent too.

What a wonderful place this is. It is so calm and serene with a stunning outlook over the surrounding farms. The place is a great size, it literally has everything you need (the kitchen is very well stocked and there are lovely Eco-store bathroom products to use, plus there was fresh milk, towels, a dishwasher, and washing machine), it is impeccably clean and beautifully decorated. There is a separate indoor dining room as well as your own deck to eat outside and soak in the sun and country views. There is an off-road place to park your car. The owners are lovely and made the check-in process very easy, especially as we were arriving quite late at night. They were also very accommodating for us. We loved it here and will definitely stay here again if we are up in this part of the country! Highly recommended!

Small as stated. Very clean. Off-road parking. The only negative being we had nowhere to store our food, the fridge, freezer, shelves being full.

Delightful spot with views out over the Manukau estuary. Quiet and peaceful.
