Wainui bush retreat

We would like to express our sincere appreciation for such a wonderful stay. The views were absolutely breathtaking, and the peaceful surroundings provided the perfect place to rest, reflect, and relax. The property was easy to locate, beautifully presented, and maintained to a very high standard. Our heartfelt thanks to the owners for their outstanding hospitality. From the moment we arrived until the time we departed, we felt genuinely welcomed and well looked after. Your kindness, warmth, and attention to detail made our experience truly memorable. Ngā mihi nui for your generosity and hospitality. We are grateful for the opportunity to have stayed here and would highly recommend this beautiful accommodation to anyone seeking a peaceful and relaxing retreat.

The hot bath was unavailable during our stay as it was undergoing maintenance, which we completely understood and appreciated being advised of. We also did not have the opportunity to use the kitchen outside, as we arrived later in the evening during very windy and rainy weather. Despite this, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and appreciated the peaceful atmosphere and warm hospitality provided throughout our visit.

Remote clean secluded place. Had everything I need for my stay despite the weather! Cute cat greeted me every time I walked by :)

Dogs are loud but that is OK.

Our hosts made us feel immediately at ease. They were very helpful and truly hospitable (the communication before our arrival was already excellent). The room and bathroom were neat and cosy. The outdoor kitchen facilities were much appreciated. At night, the atmosphere was peaceful and romantic, magical with the fairy lights. The terrace and garden were a real pleasure, a perfect spot for stargazing at night. The hosts’ two dogs stayed indoors and could not access our space, so it didn’t affect our stay. The lovely cat’s visit was funny. It was a relaxing stay.

Sal and Gareth were amazing hosts and made our holiday experience amazing. The accommodation is Top Notch!! They made us our dog feel welcome!
