Your jaw will drop when you walk into the Kite. It's absolutely gorgeous. Brittany and Tim have created a 5-star accommodation, surrounded by the sounds of the forest (including deer in their "roar" season, which made us think we were on the set of Jurassic Park...totally cool). Brittany was incredibly helpful from my first contact with her -- she offered tips about where to do some grocery shopping, which local cafes to visit, and a fabulous eco-tour guide (Stew at Abel Tasman Eco Tours). The Kite is very well-equipped with kitchen gear, and we enjoyed cooking our dinners on the gas BBQ. Brittany provided a fabulous welcome basket with fresh fruit, granola, snacks, coffee, wine, and milk. The washing machine came in handy, and Brittany was kind enough to dry a load for us when the humidity was high and laundry wouldn't dry. The location is amazing -- such a quiet, secluded spot but still only a couple of kilometers to the entrance to Abel Tasman Park. We enjoyed walking around Brittany & Tim's lovely property and meeting some of their horses, including wee Monty, the miniature horse foal born just a few months ago. We also enjoyed meeting Brittany's two adorable daughters and her sweet dog Leo. A place like this is what New Zealand was all about for us -- meeting the locals, staying in a home instead of a hotel, enjoying nature, and chilling out. I highly recommend Brittany & Tim as hosts and the Kite as a fabulous place to stay on your holiday.
