We loved our stay here. It was a bit chilly when we first arrived but getting the fire going soon sorted that. It was such a comfy home to stay in and an excellent base for exploring the area. Would absolutely recommend

While we only stayed one night here, it was the perfect location to get away from the noise of town traffic yet very close to Hokitika and right on the way to the Hokitika Gorge. There were only two of us but perfect spot for family with children or couples travelling together.

Cosy and cracking view

Lovely cosy villa - as it’s name suggests right on the Hokitika river. Clean, comfortable, and nice and quiet - and the powerful hot shower was awesome! We enjoyed the stay.
