Jan 5, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Lovely Kiwi Bach with stunning views and an amazing location. Very private with a lovely garden but still close to shops. New bathroom and the garden was a highlight- fresh veggies and herbs available which was super handy.
