• We loved our stay. The spa was a lovely place to see the stars from although I found the spa cover hard to manage. We had a really mini great break and rest. Thank you!

• Great place to stay, hot tub was awesome. 3 heat pumps made it very warm during this winter stay.

• "Lovely property that allowed us to be fairly central to everything Waiheke has to offer but lovely and quiet! We particularly enjoyed using the kayak in the ocean and chilling out in the spa pool in the evening. The kitchen is deceptively big and really well equipped and all the bedrooms are roomy with comfortable beds. I dealt with one of Richards team, a delightful lady who met us at the property and made us feel welcome."                                                                                                                          Julie Muxworthy, Mar 2018
