Nice waterfront setting, far away from any public places. Tavern on 7km is nice, good and cheap food. Room is next to public area with just a glass panel door in between. If you are looking for very basic, this will be to your enjoyment, no seconds for us....

Perfect

Fantastic quiet spot overlooking the start of Queen Charlotte Sound. Very peaceful and picturesque. Stayed the the bay view apartment which was well equipped with views over the Sound. Private patio space allowed outdoor bbq, would love to return and stay for longer. Ideal for people wanting walking,biking and kayaking and peace and quiet.

weil alle Gaeste dieselbe sehr gut ausgestattet Kueche nutzen, kommt man unweigerlich ins Gespraech. Wir hatten sehr interessante Mitgaeste. Das Anakiwa401 liegt aesserst ruhig gelegen am Ende der Strasse und dem Beginn des Wanderweges. Die Zimmer sind sauber, gut ausgestattet und die Gastgeber sehr nett.
