From the listing we expected to have a view of the sunset not of the back of another property. There are three properties all connected to each and the Boat Shed is at the rear. There is an ocean view from the side window of the sitting room.
There is nowhere to sit outside unless you drag a chair onto the balcony off the kitchen which again has no view.
It also is not clear to overseas guests ( not used to New Zealand’s lack of small shops)that any shop or restaurant is back in Haast or only at lunchtime in Jackson Bay.
Meg was very helpful in ensuring that we had enough supplies for breakfast. Luckily, we had enough to put together a random evening meal!!
The headline price per night is very reasonable but by the time fees and cleaning are added on this has been our most expensive AirBnB on our three week tour of the South Island.
Great for an overnight pit stop but rather disappointing if you booked for the sunset views.
