We headed to Elva & Geoff's cottage in Awaroa for two nights, and thoroughly loved every aspect of this trip.
Elva & Geoff are fantastic hosts. Not only were they friendly, welcoming and went above and beyond with special touches, they made sure we had everything we needed for a relaxing stay.
The cottage had everything you needed, and was very clean, and the comfiest Air BnB bed I have ever stayed in. Super soft beach towels, really good coffee, fresh fruit salad delivered every morning and choccy's on arrival.
Having spent much time in Awaroa before, the location of this cottage is fantastic, almost beach frontage. Geoff also picked us up from the other side of the estuary (one way by quad bike, the other in the dinghy), which made accessing the cottage nice and easy.
I would highly recommend this property to anyone wanting to get away from it all, up for an adventure, or trying to find their own piece of paradise.
