We absolutely loved our stay at Alison's house. It is in a wonderful location and the house is extremely comfortable and very well equipped. The kitchen is great and had everything we needed, with a good supply of basic foods as well. The beds were very comfortable and the balcony looking out to Kapiti was superb - the perfect spot for reading a book or drinking a glass of wine. It felt more like a home than and AirBnB. Alison was very responsive to all of my questions and immediately provided helpful answers. I highly recommend her house and would stay there again any time.
