STOP LOOKING AT OTHER ACCOMMODATIONS AND JUST CHECK YOURSELF IN AT NIGEL AND KAREN'S PLACE NOW!!! Oh my goodness what a spectacular stay we had at Koru despite it being for only one night! Nigel and Karen were genuine, warm and hilarious to be around! This definitely is on top of our list of best accommodations in NZ and we are even considering coming back for a family vacation next time to stay for a few days! They showed us around their property which is lovingly and painstakingly put together by themselves and we even got to enjoy a walk at the beach with their lovely dog as well. Even caught a glimpse of a seal that came ashore to rest! The self contained cabin was spacious, clean and warm which made it private enough for a couple but also big enough for a family. We didn't get a chance to enjoy the hot tub outdoors but we can imagine that will be worthwhile if you get to! The couple were also kind enough to share some local culture and tips for travelling around NZ. At the end of the day, go experience it for yourself and you'll see why their place is such a well rated accommodation!
