10 / 10Outstanding·Sep 2026
The view from the villa is exceptional. Very spacious apartment for a family, especially with young kids. Well equipped kitchen. Huge bed. Wifi is available as opposed to some older reviews which mentioned there was none. The clubhouse nearby has one of the best high-quality dining in New Zealand.
Nothing. I only wish there were more reviews from 2026. I hesitated to book for sometime after noticing the last review for 2026 was in January, and wondering why this place has no recent review yet strangely often fully booked. But after arriving there and reading the written feedback left in the physical guestbook, it made so much sense!

Stunning views. Very spacious rooms. Great deck area to sit outside and look towards mountains across lake and golf course. Peaceful and quiet. Excellent communication with host. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms worked well for 2 couples. Great coffee machine.
No milk supplied, which would have been nice due to remote location. No Wifi - we later found this was noted on booking site, however, it was something we automatically expected would be available in this day & age. A lot of bird poop on exterior hand rails & by front door - appreciate it would be difficult to keep clean, but it appeared to have been there a while.

A beautifully presented apartment, wonderful views, a home away from home. Right down to the little treats that were left. Spotlessly clean we will most definitely recommend to close family and friends. Thankyou for such a great stay.

Beautiful property and location. Amazing views.
No Wi-Fi. Should have checked but it was still a surprise.
