Ann's cottage is absolutely beyond our expectations. I even told Ann her cottage looks way better than in the pictures! Very close to the beach and we got to watch the sunset when we arrived, and it was gorgeous. Very near to the center with only 1 minute drive. Ann has prepared all necessity for us and the kitchenette, the bedding and the fireplace is just awesome.. Loved Ann's cottage so much but hate to leave coz Hokitika is just a place for one night stay. I definitely recommend this nice place to all of u who is gonna spend some time in Hokitika which I think u should. btw, the stone art u can see on Ann's fridge is cute and u can find the shop nearby.
