As mentioned in listing, Barbara loves conversing with her guests - super friendly. She goes out of her way to help you! We have her to thank for getting us motivated book our Abel Tasman tour on the nicest weather day of our stay. Abel Tasman Sea Shuttles company will pick you up at and return you to the Moteuka iSite if you book their 9:00 tour. The iSite is a 10-15 minute walk from Barabara's home, but she offered to drive us there and back. She offered to pull the laundry we did at her home from the clothing line in her yard after it was dried. You have the whole upstairs to yourself - comfortable bed, shower with great water pressure, and a HUGE sitting area where you can really spread out, a large TV, and windows on three sides which is very sunny if you like but all windows have blinds you can use. As mentioned in someone else's review, decor is retro and comfortable. Breakfast every day. Barbara & Jerry are a sweet couple my husband & I laughed a lot with. We will be pen pals
