El mejor lugar para quedarse !

Excelente atención, los dueños te reciben y atienden súper bien. Nosotros nos quedamos en la cabaña número 1, la de luna de miel. Por donde empezar, la casa está hermosa y super bien equipada y moderna. La vista y acceso a la playa es espectacular! Te dejan usar kayaks y tabla stand Up gratis, con chalecos y todo lo necesario. El desayuno está muy bueno. Tenés dos opciones y te entregan la canastita el día anterior con todo lo necesario. Tienen una huerta donde te dan verduras para que puedas cocinar. Esta muy cerca de atracciones donde tenés que ir de lo hermosas que son, por ejemplo playa wharakiki o la.cueva rawhiti. Excelente lugar. No nos faltó nada de nada en las cuatro noches de estadias. Super recomendable. Si vuelvo a nueva Zelanda me alojaría aquí nuevamente.
