Christine and Fred’s Kiwi Fruit Cottage is an absolute find in Katikati! The cottage is impeccably clean and the amenities are just like at home. The kitchen was well stocked with a full-sized fridge! We appreciated this a lot as a traveling family, we needed the space to chill drinks, ice pops and also store our cooked food before going to the beach. We found it easy to cook in their kitchen and that has saved us lots of money than dining out. The warm showers are very much appreciated as temperatures dropped for a supposed to be summer adventure when we were there. The rooms were spacious and the beds comfortable. The orchard is amazing as we biked around the area. Christine also shared their produce with us and we were happy that we were given an opportunity to teach our son about where his food comes from. The location is great as it was near shopping centers, the beach, and good biking and walkways. Tuapiro point, Bowentown, Waihi beach were amazing! Be sure to take lots of photos and charge your phones or camera! Bring your bikes too! It was a wonderful six-day stay with them and we would definitely come back. Highly recommended!
