Great private, peaceful location. Handy for our Whānau reunion at Te Touwai marae to bring my Mum and Aunty back for a comfortable safe sleep on a good bed :-) Judy and Craig - thank you for being great friendly hosts.

Not wanting to bring a downer to a great stay but there were a few cockroaches crawling about the little stove, sink area. Noticed at night and early morning when making a cuppa. Nothing that wasn’t fixed with a hot, soapy wipe down.

You can take your own breakfast or all meals as there is a fully stocked kitchette provided. An outside undercover big kitchen area & barbecue lounging area is also available. I loved the location & the glorious views from this clean & tidy, comfortable unit plus the handiness to the restaurant across the road. The hostess Judy was most welcoming, very friendly & helpful..her & Craig have this place running well & it looks cute with the garden seating areas. I was even able to pick some parsley for mussel fritters I made!!

Nothing not to like as far as I'm concerned. Nothing can be perfect about places to stay unless you're paying the huge prices then you'd expect it to be.

the view from the hotel is amazing. when we arrived, we were greeted and welcomed by Judy. We had a very large room with everything you need for a lovely stay. The highlight, however, were the incredibly valuable tips and advice from Judy and her husband. We have travelled a lot, but we have never received such personal (and handwritten) advice and tips for our trip. We can unreservedly recommend a stay there!

Absolutely absolutely nothing

great location above the harbour with magnificent views from all units. The hosts (Judy and Craig) were knowledgeable about the area and gave us great ideas for our stay. They were extremely helpful and accommodating (and relaxed). The units are all being refurbished to a high standard and are therefore very clean and comfortable. AND they provide proper milk (not UHT sachets) and good sized mugs! :)

Excellent location with views of the harbour and close to all amenities including the fishing club which has also great views and dining. Judy and Craig are also great hosts, friendly and helpful with lots of local knowledge to share and the occasional treat to make your stay more enjoyable.

View over the harbour was magnificent. Really close to the only restaurant in town. Staff very friendly with a wealth of local knowledge.

I regret not booking for more nights. There is plenty to see and experience in this small town.

The location perched above the fishing club and wharf was magical. We were invited to dine at the club which was delicious, reasonably priced and very convenient. A wonderful stay and we wish we had stayed longer.

Nothing.

The View from the room is awesome and the small walk down the hill to the boat club gave a great diner and a few nice beers. Very peacefull and quiet.

It was very warm, and although fans were supplied the rooms could really do with Air Conditioning.

The location and the view. The proprietors. The gardens. Proximity to the Sport Fishing Club for meals out.

No lighter weight bedding for hot nights. Limited cooking facilities in the unit. Air conditioning would have been welcome.
