Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the bach. The view is stunning, the wildlife enchanting and Julia was the perfect host. The kitchen was very well equipped, the beds very comfy, and the place was spotless. The local beaches are heavenly and well worth an explore.

Summary: 5 star stay in an idyllic setting… the property has stunning views & has everything you could need. Tutukaka is a short drive away with lots of amenities. We would highly recommend Poor Knights Islands for a snorkel or scuba dive day trip & a day trip to the Bay of Islands (1.5 hours away). Julianne was a fantastic host & very attentive to our needs to ensure we had a perfect vacation.

Summary: I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The surroundings with the trees, birds and wildlife were so beautiful. The cabin itself has everything it needed, and was lovely and comfortable. We may even make this an annual thing. Thankyou so much to the host, she was warm, inviting, helpful and friendly. Incredibly happy with our stay 💖😍

Summary: Hidden away on the side of a large private estate of regenerative native forest, overlooking a verdant valley with the most beautiful beaches, and misty mountains beyond, this is the perfect spot to escape to. Tidy and tastefully decorated, well equipped with a kitchen and Wi-Fi, with Chromecast on the TV a huge plus for us, this immediately felt like 'home away from home'. Highly recommended.
