We had a wonderful few days staying on Kawau Island even though it was raining for most of the time. The home is very spacious and well designed with amazing views and lots of outside space. It would have been luxury 20 years ago but is now in need of some upgrades. The master bed is not comfortable and is small, likewise the sofa in the living room. The kitchen needs new appliances and could be better stocked for such a large home. Many of the lightbulbs were missing or not working. The owner was responsive to our requests but given the remote nature of the house and the weather it was not possible to fix anything. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
