"From the start to finish of our 3 nights stay, in one of the treehouses, the whole experience was exceptional in our travels around NZ over the last month. Friendly, kind interested and caring well beyond expectation. Rooms supremely comfortable, food varied each night and delicious. Breakfast and lunch offered with grace and pleasure also. Good place for quiet time but close to whale watching trips . Even its own helipad for trips to mountains and sea.! Don’t miss this gem."
