This is one Airbnb we didn't want to leave. The location is perfect. You'll need your own car but that's the case just about anywhere in NZ if you want to see the country.
It's located just off the main highway. At night with the windows open I thought I could hear cars but it ended up being the waves crashing. The beach is only a 10 minute walk away and perfect for running along the West Coast path which is gravel.
This is actually 3 buildings all built around a central courtyard with a picnic table in the middle, perfect for your dinners after cooking on the grill. Nearest the driveway is a unit with a queen bed and is where my wife and I slept. You can walk across the grass or completely under the covered walkway to reach the other two units. One houses the kitchen along with a double bed and a set of bunkbeds. Just next door is the theatre room complete with a selective of DVDs. We watched Monster's Inc. to unwind after a long day of driving and exploring.
On the other side of the kitchen unit are the two bathrooms. Both have toilets and one also has a shower. They are located outside but they're completely enclosed and like any normal bathroom in a house. The only difference is that you'll walk out a door and into another door if you use the bathroom. The shower is amazing.
Jody and Bruce are amazing guests. They had everything we needed and offered local tips. We hope to be back if we're fortunate enough to visit the south island again.
