This was a gorgeous unit very well equiped in a beautiful area. There are actually 2 units next door to each other, if you're traveling with another couple and want your own space perfect. Easy excess to a lovely walking track, I love my walking, I walked back from Huka Falls one day and walked the other side back to the falls the next. Beautiful. Would definitely stay again.
6 / 10Average·Jul 2023
Property is warm and comfortable but needed a decent table and chairs as they were a bit flimsy. Also parking is a long walk to the door, which isn’t ideal for my elderly mother (not suitable for disabled)
Also unfortunately, next door there was a baby crying throughout the night, which suggest thin walls! Also suggest you bring your own towels
