We stayed three nights and had a wonderful time in Karin’s place. It’s clean, modern and tastefully furnished. Karin supplied bread and jam and other goodies, a very nice touch. The weather didn’t permit us to use the pool but I imagine that would be a real plus in hot weather. The backyard is amazing and the gardens are worth exploring. I would strongly recommend a stay here if you’re planning to spend time in the area. We used it as a home base to do some great hikes and also to explore Napier.
