"Perfect accomodation and awesome memories."

10.0

everything was perfect. Staying here was to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. Sadly we only booked one night and wish we could have spent at least another night. Enjoyed going over to the glow worm dell. It was fully booked but you would never know as it was so quiet.

Nothing!

"Gorgeous cabins right next to the Wild West Hokitika beach. Hear the waves from your cozy cabin."

10.0

I loved hearing the roar of the ocean from our cabin. Beautiful pebbles on the beach which was a treasure hunt fo the children. It really is a lovely place to stay. Wild and fresh. Clean rooms and nice and warm even though it was chilly on the West Coast.

I can't fault anything.

Goats were cool. Gary the Alpaca was a snob and wanted nothing to do with us. (Fair enough too) Beach access was excellent as was the laundry with large new machines.

Old bed which was quite uncomfortable.

"Fab for one night only!"

9.0

Cute little cabin perfect for one night, short walk into town although very quiet and few restaurants open. Nice friendly goats and alpaca neighbours and quiet night. Went to see the glow worms too which was unique! Very friendly arrival and greeting and easy to find place. Small bathroom but okay for one night. Well equipped kitchenette with only amenities needed. Overall great!

Quite small
