It's a really interesting geology and makes for gorgeous sunsets. The house is well equipped and large enough for a family. Helen was a really friendly host, picking us up on the beach and taking us to visit her friends who were fishing on the shore. We'd happily stay again! ##### Ruth R.

Was a fantastic experience for our family to stay whilst reconnecting with whanganui. Has everything you need and great communication from owner. Just remember Kai iwi doesn’t really have any shops (other than small fish and chips etc) but is only a 15min drive away yet it feels a million miles away from Whanganui as it is so beautiful and quiet. ##### Thomas B.

Moved them into the lounge and enjoyed them for our 4 days/3 nights. Loved the privacy the property provides, being able to watch the sunset from the double bed, to see the sea as I cleaned my teeth. Nice to have the morning sun in the kitchen. Appreciated arriving to ice cubes in the freezer ready to make Mojito's. Like the deck to chillax on in the morning and watch the waves.Like the later 11am check out too. Enjoyed browsing in the new Kai Cookbook. Keen to rebook again in the future.
