Tiwai Waka Retreat

Nature is right outside the living room and very good communication

The 2nd bedroom didn’t have any side tables and noise from upstair which waked us up quite early, also if you ware using the shower at the same time with the people upstair you may had a cold shower

The bed! Husband wants buy one lol. The facilities and the price. Excellent place.

Nothing

Just perfect! Could not have asked for a more comfortable "home" and great position outside of the city for the few days we had to explore the Wellington area and beyond. A great introduction to New Zealand! 🙂

Property was really well equipped and spacious, with fantastic views.

Only downside is that the parking is a little difficult, especially if there is another car on the driveway.

Beautiful home with lovely facilities and people. Would definitely stay again!

The place was very clean, tidy, spacious and heater easily warmed up the area. The rooms were dressed up beautifully, the shower was fabulous. Everything looked fresh and new. We weren't there during the day so didn't get to appreciate the outdoor area which looked lovely. Owner was very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately we misplaced a key which we felt terrible about as we feel like we let her down, she was understanding and kind about it.

The cooking top (elements) werent really useable we struggled to get heat out of them so used the grill to cook, the vacuum suction was not really working and toaster had to be held down to work. Also very little room to cook so probably best to stay if your eating out a lot. Nothing big and we let owner know so are sure these will be addressed in the future :)
