"Exceptional"

9.0

Wir waren sehr zufrieden und würden wiederkommen! Restaurants gab es in der Nähe und auch der Anleger für die Ausflüge waren fußläufig erreichbar.

Eine zweite Sitzgelegenheit im Zimmer und weniger Dekorationskissen wären toll. damit man mehr Platz im Schrank hat.

"Wonderful!!!"

10.0

Rhonda truly makes you feel at home and welcome, she is always on hand to offer advice or help when needed, nothing was too much trouble. She is a gem! The property is just beautiful and located right in the centre of Akoroa with all amenities within walking distance. The beds are very comfortable and there is a cosy lounge for guests to use. Despite the awful weather we still had an amazing experience in this beautiful location.
