This place is absolutely magic! The house is huge and well-appointed, everything was clean and the beds were comfy. We enjoyed the spa, fire and bbqs during our stay but the pizza oven was beyond our skill level. We brought our dogs with us, which was perfect. The section is a doggie paradise - but it is not completely fenced, so if you have a dog prone to wandered (or chasing rabbits like mine) you may spend some time having to chase after them.
The location is lovely. Kina beach is walking distance. This beach is good for fishing, but it is a rocky/ pebbly beach so not so good for swimming or catching some rays. If you want a sandy beach you will have to drive. Lots of places to eat at Māpua or Motueka or further afield at Richmond or Nelson.
Overall, this place was perfect. We did not want to leave.
