"10/10 in all respects"

10.0

The accommodation was so thoroughly cleaned, the bed was really comfortable, there was a table to eat - I did not miss a thing. But mostly, the staff was so incredibly kind and hospitable. When I arrived at Lake Mahinapua, I had caught quite a bad fever and they did absolutely everything to make sure I was looked after (from giving me a room on a more quiet side of the complex, to making sure I had eaten, et cetera). Words cannot express how much I did appreciate that as a solo traveller.

"Very good"

8.0

Great cottage for our family of 5. Easy walk to beach or lake. Very comfortable. We enjoyed the quiet location.

There were numerous light bulbs that didn't work - bathroom, bedside lamp, main lounge room. Access was a bit tricky as they were setting up for an event and had tents everywhere that we had to climb through.

Communal kitchen could be improved. Rather small for number of users. Tea and coffee would be appreciated in room. No internet in our room

"Handy stay in a great location: lake, beach and pub all walkable!"

7.0

Great location opposite lake, walking distance to beach, and pub of course!

A couple of minor dislikes, nothing too important.
