We spent a few days at Christine's place in Mataikona over Christmas, and it was wonderful. Christine is a lovely host - she greeted us on arrival and made us feel very welcome. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and a lovely Christmas. The view from the deck is beautiful and it's just a short walk over the road to the beach. The apartment is attached to the main house but is so private we didn't realise anyone was home next door. We're keen to return at some at stage soon.
