This is one of, if not the best Airbnb we have stayed at. The location is fantastic being a short drive into the lovely town of Takaka and within walking distance to a beautiful beach. The cottage itself was perfect for our family, travelling with a baby it is often difficult to find accommodation where we can happily let our little one crawl around and explore but the cottage was spotlessly clean and my little one very much loved crawling around and playing with the toys that Fumiko and Richard provided. The house sits within manicured grounds overlooking a fruit trees and paddocks. My little girl really loved the Bob and Boo Boo, the two little pigs, as well as the chickens. The cottage was well stocked with quality crockery and cooking utensils. We were a little worried that the cottage would be really hot without having AC, however, it was really cool inside as the windows could be slid fully open and the insect covers meant no creepy crawlers could get into the cottage. All in all we had such a great stay and will definitely come back should we ever be lucky enough to make it back to Golden Bay. I would very much recommend staying here if you visit Golden Bay.
