Fantastic place

We stayed for 4 nights, when we arrived the weather was quite bad, and unfortunately there was a very short power cut. The hosts made contact, provided lighting and even bought us a cooked chicken so we could eat. They couldn’t do enough and were awesome. Turned out the power was only off for an hour…. The place is immaculate and very well appointed, they have thought about everything you need. It got even better, because of the bad weather they offered us another night for free to enjoy the upcoming improved weather! All in all a perfect holiday destination, we will be back thank you so much A

Fabulous bach, just perfect for our needs and fitted out with everything you could think of. We'll be back, bringing less of the "necessaries" next time because Leanne provides them. Terrible weather but the "natives" were very friendly and hospitable

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
We were very dissatisfied and disappointed with this property for the amount we paid for it. We have stayed in many properties, camp grounds, hostels all over New Zealand and have paid a lot less for a much nicer accomodation. I very rarely do reviews, however, I do not have high standards, but have expectations especially when you’re paying for what appears to be a well conditioned property advertised. I apologise for the long review but we were not happy at all with this place. The cleanliness was very poor! There was hair and what appeared to be dog hair everywhere, including the toilet seat. There were crumbs and lint on the flooring, carpet and rug which had no way been hoovered. The sink basin had not been cleaned. There was dirty cutlery in the draws and cupboards (plates etc). I had to Hoover and wipe down the kitchen and bathroom upon check in. There’s a disgusting may in front of the toilet which stinks of wee and covered in stains. The furniture is pretty old and dirty. Poor bedding etc. There isn’t a AC / Heat pump unit in the property and the heat is just incredible when you first enter. Fair enough, but it barely cooled down despite windows being opened and later with the fan. Wifi is not advertised and so is not included. The water is not drinkable. Overall, we were disappointed is fair to say and we’re really mythed as to how this property has got great reviews! This property would be great if it had a good clean and up to date furniture.
