One of the most amazing places we've stayed at in New Zealand
We will be back. Absolutely stunning location with wonderful staff and fabulous facilities. Loved it!
The property was a slice of heaven on earth. But for foodies like me I would request either of 2 options - expand the menu or provide microwave/bbq facilities.
Nice place...friendly staff...would recommend for an overnight stay but wouldnt recommend longer...focus is more on day trippers from Picton not on those paying top dollar to stay in the accommodation. The water taxi is charged on top of accommodation which should be included if you are staying I feel, as there is no road to drive there... Room service doesnt get done till very late in the day and we had to chase up towels, toilet paper etc. Maybe not enough staff but maybe 2 seperate staff groups would work better...one for day trippers one focused on accommodation.
Overal a relaxing stay in a comfortable room.
Great destination, so much to do and see. Nestled in a gorgeous spot. Friendly staff. Comfortable room. Great access from Queen Charlotte walking track
