Loved our stay. The owner left us alone the entire time and we could relax. A couple of Kaka (native parrots) visited us in our cabin, they were tame and took food gently from our fingers. The cabins are amongst beautiful native bush with a view of a lovely bay. All amenities were perfect and we had a great few nights sleep. A car was provided for $20 per day, which was awesome. Highly recommend.

Fabulous accommodation in a beautiful setting. These luxury cabins were carefully developed and include all you need. The option of the vehicle was helpful too, especially with the location. Bird life was great to watch and the view is stunning too.
