I had a spectacular time!! This property is even more beautiful than the amazing photos on Airbnb because of the personal touches of fresh flowers and fruit and the lovely attention to detail! My experience was made more comfortable, and even delightful because of the personal attention and thoughtful recommendations the owner made about places to visit, activities to enjoy - most especially those related to bike trips - and places to dine. He was always interested in my interests and ways to enhance my experiences as a first time visitor to NZ!! I will certainly hope to come back some day, and I will certainly recommend friends do the same!!
