Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: From the moment you walk into Hopewell, you get a feeling you are staying somewhere very special. After a fun and scenic little boat ride to the property (which is part of the experience of ‘leaving the world behind’), we were greeted by warm and friendly hosts and staff. We were assisted with our luggage, along a magical short / easy path through the oasis to get to our cottage. With a view to die for, our cottage was perfect in every way, clean and everything we needed (with super comfy beds!). We could tell so much care had been taken to make our stay wonderful. Do yourself a favor and order the pizzas for dinner , homemade by our hosts. They are humongous and made with delish fresh ingredients. We enjoyed them outside on a candle lit table by a toasty fire, finished off with complimentary toasted marshmallows! We changed things up to prepare our own meals on other nights which we had fun preparing in the best shared kitchen / facilities I have ever seen! There is nothing you want for.. it has everything from basic staples to sharp knives.. something you miss during travels ! (Even includes a huge, comfy living room with a toasty fireplace the staff are constantly stoking up !) We also enjoyed freshly baked homemade bread in the morning for breakfast and delicious espressos (we are from Melbourne , so takes a lot to impress us with coffee!!!). After a long journey around the South Island, we chose to take it easy at Hopewell.. easy strolls around the property to enjoy the breathtaking views, took a bike ride, played and swam in the sound shoreline with our toddler, kayaked, read a book in the hammock overlooking pristine landscape, and an evening soak in the hot tub. But you could do as little or as much as you like, with generous hosts available to help you plan activities as you desire. We found Hopewell absolutely magical, where we got lost in relaxation and making beautiful family memories together.
Negative: Nothing not to like
Summary: Hopewell is the perfect paradise, where you won’t want to leave.

Positive: Everything. The amazing hospitality from the owners Mike and Lynley is the icing on the cake when staying at Hopewell. From the lovely coffee and baking when we first arrived to scones and scrolls during our stay. We ordered pizza one night. It was delicious and big. Sat in front of the outdoor fire to eat it. Mussel night was great and got to chat with some of the other guests. We enjoyed all the activities from biking, walking, kayaking, attempting to fish. Going with Mike to get the mussels. And let’s not forget the hot tub. The communal facilities are great and plenty of room for everyone. So whether it’s meeting people or privacy you’re after, there is something for everyone.
Negative: Nothing.
Summary: Slice of paradise.
