Great location to all of the South Island locations. North side is only 1 hour drive. House was clean and roomy and fairly quiet considering the road that is very busy in front. Parking was not ideal but they let you know well in advance. A word of advice, don’t ask for towels to be washed or traded. There is a washer and dryer on site to use. The staff got in an argument after I ask to swap them towels after being there 4 days and only given one towel per person. The master bedroom light never turned on with the remotes for it but there are lamps and that works great as the rooms both have lots of windows for great views of the ocean. I would stay again. Great house for the location and price.
