We really enjoyed our stay at Kawau, and the house was great for a mixed group to share together - plenty of room for quiet time & socialising.
The deck on the front is great feature, perfect for relaxing & lounging in the sun - with great views of the ocean.
There was quite a few basic amenities missing from the house, so I suggest you take over everything you may need (even the likes of dishwashing liquid, salt & pepper etc.) There is no access to stores on this side of the island, so no opportunity to top up.
Also - you need to take all rubbish & recycling back with you off the island. Be prepared!
Unfortunately for us, the golf cart advertised wasn’t available, but a friendly local Bruce helped us get our gear to & from the wharf.
There is a second dwelling very close on this property which can cause issues with music & noise, so perhaps not quite such an ideal spot for parties as advertised.
Lovely beaches close by for swimming, and plenty of bush walks. Definitely a great spot to catch up on a few books & unwind.
