Christine's place is lovely. It's very nicely decorated and you feel like you are in a hotel room. There was continental breakfast for the first day (muesli was super nice) and you can order extra for next day. Location is very good, just across the road from the beach and a few minutes walk from the local restaurants/pubs. Takaka is only about a 10 min drive away and Abel Tasman 25-30 min. Lots to explore around the area. Have to say that the bed was super comfy, we did not want to leave!
