This was our only AirBnB experience in New Zealand and it was great, after we figured out a few things about the electric outlets, etc. Also want to mention that guests will want to make sure they arrive in daylight as it will be very difficult to find your way in the dark. I think other guests may have mentioned this, and we were very thankful we needed this advice. The driveway entrance is at a curve so it’s a little unnerving coming out of the property as well. The view to the lake makes up for it.
Geraldine is a fantastic host though, and she responded to all questions very quickly. She gave excellent detailed instructions for checkin so everything went smoothly for us. We would stay here again if we ever have a chance to come back to NZ.
