Stayed at Eco Sanctuary for 3 nights with 2 kids aged 9 and 7. The house is set in beautiful native forest and really feels secluded and part of the natural habitat. The kitchen is brilliant, and the owner Diana who lives on the property was very welcoming, loaning us tomatoes and onions from her own garden in our hour of need! The house is a 2 minute walk from the Driving Creek Railway which is brilliant fun, and a 3 minute drive into Coromandel town which is really cute. The main beaches of Hahei, Cathedral Cove and Hot Water Beach are an hour's drive. Lovely stay, would recommend the house for those wanting a break from the beach!
