I wish we could always wake up to the sound of birdsong in the most amazingly peacful corner of Waikouaiti - just thirty minutes from Dunedin. It was a dream. Just outside the door, dozens of swans, paradise ducks, and their ducklings, waited to greet us. As if the natural beauty of the lagoon's bustling ecosystem weren't enough, the continental breakfast, immaculately clean premises, local tips, and modern amenities made this stay blissfully memorable. 100/100
