The Hammock was quiet and remote which was its beauty. We luxuriated in tastefully decorated surroundings and could have quite easily taken advantage of its private beach if we had more time. We made our own meals after a day out, you wouldn't want to leave here but just relax with a bottle of wine. It is thirty minutes from Paihia and access to tours and other adventures and 15 minutes from Kerikeri. We were glad that we made this our base.
