Holly, Ben and Helen were really accommodating and just good people. We landed late in Auckland and Ben stayed up to meet us upon our arrival. In the morning they had coffee waiting for us. We got a tour of the kiwi plantation and swapped stories. The gave us some clutch advice on going to the Nikau Cafe and the caves there. That tip checked out big time! The house and property is beautiful. The room is large with a very comfortable bed. It has its own entrance and we had our own bathroom. The place is about 30-40 south of Auckland airport, making it perfect pit stop for us as we were heading southwest to Raglan. They made us feel really welcome in their home, and the first impression they gave us as first timers to New Zealand set a great tone for the rest of our trip. Wish we could have stayed longer to take advantage of the beautiful pool and property. Highly recommended! They were the perfect hosts.
