Wonderful hosts that gave us lots of tips and were really helpful (for our late arrival e.g.) Private entrance and a small kitchen for yourself. Nice view of the bay

Gilly en Colin waren zeer gastvrij en deden er alles aan om het je naar je zin te maken. De locatie met uitzicht op Brophy’s bay. Voorzien van een buiten BBQ zodat je ook makkelijk zelf kon koken

Gastgeber aus Berufung - Hosts bei calling ❤️

10.0

Jede Bewertung unter 10 Punkte ist hier nicht gerechtfertigt. Wir haben noch nie so herzliche Gastgeber erlebt wie hier. Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis ist deutlich höher als 10 Punkte. Wir wurden so herzlich empfangen, obwohl wir 15 Minuten früher ankamen als vereinbart. Wir haben am Abend eine neuseeländische Spezialität Namens Pavlova geschenkt bekommen, es war soooo lecker! Am nächsten Morgen herrliche Croissants 🥐🥐und selbszgebackene Anzac Bisciits... ein Traum...😋😋 Sie waren uns bei der Buchung von Aktivitäten behilflich und haben uns Campingsessel für unseren Ausflug geborgt. Das sind Gastgeber, die es wirklich aus Berufung machen. So etwas ist echt ziemlich einzigartig! Danke Gilly und Colin! 🤗🤗 Eveline & Ludwig Any rating under 10 points is simply not justified here. We have never experienced hosts as warm and welcoming as these. The value for money is well beyond a 10-point scale. We received such a lovely welcome, even though we arrived 15 minutes earlier than agreed. In the evening, we were treated to a New Zealand specialty called Pavlova—it was absolutely delicious! The next morning, we had wonderful croissants 🥐🥐 and homemade Anzac Biscuits... a total dream... 😋😋 ​They helped us with booking activities and even lent us camping chairs for our excursion. These are hosts who truly do this out of passion. Something like this is quite unique! Thank you, Gilly and Colin! 🤗🤗 Eveline & Ludwig
