We stayed 6 nights at Steffi's place in Kuaotunu and would have loved to stay 6 months. Her little cottage is steps from one of NZ's best beaches. It is a light-filled eco-bach on poles with views from every room. We climbed the steps and felt like we entered a haven of nature and calm. With its casual vibe and thoughtful touches everywhere, Steffi has created the most special little spot we've found so far, after 15 years visiting Airbnb's all over the globe. Her little kitchen has everything we hoped for right down to the waffle maker! We loved eating pizza at Luke's and a day trip to Whitianga to take Brian's Cave Cruzer expedition (also highly recommended). Steffi's communications were incredibly quick at all times. Check-in/check-out could not have been simpler. Kia Ora Steffi for your generosity sharing your special place - we left feeling inspired and restored and ready for whatever 2021 has in store.
