Emma is a great host. we visited her place end of December and unexpectedly it was very hot. although Emma was away, she arranged a portable fan for us very quickly. she was very considerate of our request as we were travelling with young kids.
Her house alot of toys, the only house we stayed in NZ that kept my son very busy.
Moreover her house decorations and environment is very homely with a lots of nice plants.
Highly recommended.
