My experience
I drove straight passed the Road as there was no Rd sign. I could only identify it because I usedMy Maps app and had a similar experience in Thames several months ago. I found the toaster had not been cleaned if crumbs and feel that the sealant at the bottom of the shower door look grimy and should be replaced. Otherwise I slept well and everything went like clockwork
We enjoyed the lovely view out to the sandhills. Small but well thought out unit with parking right next to the unit. Very clean with a heat pump/ air conditioner which was very useful. Wifi worked well.

WOW - that view!
First time travelling the Opononi and photos dont do this place justice, we arrived on a sunny day and were blown away by the gorgeous view from the balcony, where we later enjoyed a wine to watch the sunset over the sand dunes.The room was spacious and clean, we stayed in several similar properties whilst in NZ and this was the only one that had a kitchenette with a sink, so we appreciated the convenience.The shower was powerful and the bed was so cosy.When parking we were a bit confused on which property was ours (we were at the back property) this probably would have been obvious if we had internet and could just access the photos from the listing but as we are from overseas we were relying on wifi.We also had a little trouble with access to the lockbox and wifi but the host was very quick to respond to our queries and very friendly.
The property is perfectly located. Great view and stunning scenery around.
Inside is all you need. Everything was clean. VERY comfortable bed and pillows.

OK for one night.
This little cabin has potential, & we enjoyed sitting on the deck - lovely views. The poor standard of cleaning let it down. I won’t elaborate as I already communicated with the owner who was very prompt to respond as I was concerned about the fridge but it was just ‘slow to chill’. He might consider doing spot checks of his properties, & invest in some new pillows (& pillow protectors)
Great cabin-exactly as pictured. Amazing views and lots of nice hiking trails nearby.

Perfect for our short stay
Perfect for our short stay. Stunning harbour view. Thoughtful & imaginative touches to make our stay comfortable - the picnic hamper to contain crockery and cutlery, a basket of rolled beach towels in a corner. Washing up is done in creatively Kiwi style, and you should avoid overloading the plugboards. Would recommend.
