We wished we had started our trip here rather than finishing our NZ experience. It would have been great to spend 3 nights in this area, so much to see and do. Allan was an amazing host full of great stories and things to do and see (Debbie was at work). The rooms, beds and facilities are very good! we have 3 teenagers, who really enjoyed band hero on the Xbox!!. Right across from a wonderful surf beach. After our first swim at the beach, Allan took us to the local caves to see the Glow worms, something we would not have done on our own! and he supplied torches, and surf shoes !!! The recommended Indian was very good, kids rated the butter chicken best ever!!!
To do NZ again we would have landed at Auckland and driven straight here for the first 3 days....
