My wife and I stayed for two nights at Shikha's place and we very much liked the warm welcome and the great hospitality. The view is indeed as great as it is shown on the photos. The room was nice and comfortable and we were able to use the kitchen and the living room together with Shikha and her family. That was really nice and allowed us to learn a couple of things about New Zealand which we didn't know before. We can clearly recommend this place to others.
