Sandy and Max's place is located in a beautiful location over the hill, the private room is placed in a scenic location overlooking the valley and Okareka lake. The place is really quiet and highly accessible from town as well as close to plenty of walks including the blue Lake , green Lake (Tikitapu) lookout. Above all, Sandy and Max are a great host and are very friendly and highly knowledgeable about birds and local habitat. We rate Sandy & Max's place very highly and thank them for making our trip memorable. Hopefully, we will visit them again.
