Exceptional and very scenic location. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. Breakfast and treats were very generous and such a lovely surprise. The extra touches such as flowers on the towels, bubble bath and soaking salts was so luxurious. Elsie's artwork and sculptures were amazing. A thoroughly enjoyable stay.

I particularly liked the personal touches that the hostess laid out for our stay from the continental breakfast basket, amazing. The flower bouquets placed on the folded bath towels, lovely. The complimentary bottle of bubbly, wonderful. The surprises far exceeded our expectations...

We loved everything about our stay.

Wow. Exceptional location. Elsie (the host) went ABOVE and beyond to cater to me. From chocolates on my bed, wine, fresh flowers, candles by the spa... when you stay here you notice all the little things left in the room for her guests. She is AMAZING the place is amazing and actually probably the COMFIEST bed I've ever slept in, in ANY hotel/resort (I travel ALOT btw!😉) I even left my jacket behind which she so kindly sent express and refused payment from me. She is super sweet I wish this level of care and consideration came with every place I stay/ed. Thank you Elsie!!

ZILCH. EVERYTHING was great😊

A wonderful welcome on our arrival. Super lovely hosts. What a beautiful unit with a fabulous sea view. The like extras that were provided were a treat, such as nibbles and coffee bags. The Sea spray was even washed off our car before we left in the morning. The bed was super comfy, and we adored the serenity and peaceful weekend we had. Can't rate the accommodation or hosts highly enough. Thank you so much.

There was nothing not to like.

The breakfast included so many choices. The snacks were an added bonus. The water must have been the best in the country - my hair after washing looked amazing and styled so easily. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. We would love to stay again.

The bed was a little high for me to get in to - at 5 foot 2. Comfy though.

Very comfortable bed. Nice deep bath, and separate shower had good pressure. Attractive decor. Friendly hosts. Peaceful location. Easy drive to Convention Centre in Porirua.

Got quite wet with rain water dripping through the deck above the ranch slider door to my car out front. (It was Winter).

Elsie provides everything you could think of. There's a big bath tub (plus bath salts!) and shower, the bathroom has underfloor heating. Hairdryer and plenty of towels. There's a fully equipped kitchenette, snacks and cereals, milk, fruit and yogurt. The bed, pillows are duvet are all comfortable and good quality. A desk to work at with WiFi and a big TV. The view is stunning, as directly on the beach front. I'd love to stay again. Thank you so much for being a great host too! The sunset and sunrise was stunning, perfect location!

What a fantastic property with a view of the sea straight outside the door. A wonderful beach with miles to explore. The property had everything you would need and more, very attentive hosts Exceptional value for money and I am sure we will return to enjoy another tranquil stay here again

Loved this gorgeous retreat! Beautiful room, bathroom and kitchenette. Beautiful garden entrance, beautiful view of Pukerua Bay shoreline over to Kapiti Island. Awesome local path along shoreline to point with views of crashing waves on rugged shore, even a cathedral cove. Stunning landscape looking out from deluxe retreat!

I loved everything!

The room was immaculate. Had everything you need for an overnight stay or longer. The view was gorgeous. Bed was very comfortable. The small touches made it extra special. Fresh flowers displayed on our towels. Candles around the bath. Complimentary Sherry & also other beverages available if you wanted to indulge. The art was also a lovely added bonus.
