Everything about our stay at Christina’s place was perfect. It was a true home away from home. If it had been possible, we would have stayed longer than three days. The views from every window are spectacular and on the one rainy day we had the fire made for a cosy relaxing day. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking and even the dishwasher. There was ample hot water to have a long relaxing bath. The drive to Paradise is one of the most memorable and scenic experienced we have had in New Zealand?

Hosts very helpful and quick to respond to messages. The house was great everything we needed. The location was amazingly beautiful. The only issue we had was there were no safety gates on the stairs for the grandkids. Highly recommend this property for couples or families, we didn’t want leave
Unique and comfortable cabin in a peaceful location with stunning scenery. Warm and very well equipped. Once we arrived, we felt like we never wanted to leave :) Highly recommend.

A lovely homely place. Clean and great and easy comms. Highly recommend
This property was wonderful for a romantic, private getaway. Surrounded by snow capped mountains and lots to do on day trips. Nice new bathroom, lovely bedding, comfy bed, fully equipped kitchen, great fire place and bunnies bouncing around the back yard. We'll definately be back!

Amazing spot. We didn’t realise it was 10mins out of Glenorchy but it was worth it. The views were stunning. Will definitely return.
