We absolutely loved our stay in this little cottage. The weather wasn’t the best during our stay, but the views from the window were stunning enough

Nice views, but lacking in some areas
The location in general is quite nice, with decent views from upstairs. However, we weren't quite prepared for it to be be stuck in between a bunch of other buildings. Although we didn't see anyone epse around, it lacked privacy and didn't feel like the most restful space unfortunately Also one thing to prepare for is that the shower pressure is almost non existant (fine for some of us, not so great for anyone trying to wash long hair!)

The property was spotlessly clean with everything supplied,(bed linen and towels) microwave, toaster, kettle, 2 tv's etc. The beds were the most comfortable you could wish for. The views of the harbour were fantastic. The hosts were wonderful, bringing us bread, butter, milk and eggs which we were not expecting. Just a little off the beaten track but don't let that put you off. Highly recommended.

Stunning views
Absolutely amazing views. Nice quirky place. Warmed up well with a small wood burner oven. Off the beaten track a fair way, but still an easy drive to Rawene and Opononi. Less confident drivers may find the driveway steep and slippery in the wet.

Quiet getaway
A beautiful quiet place to relax and enjoy the great view, everything we needed was provided. To get there we recommend taking the turnoff onto Coutu Loop Rd that to Opononi.
