Great view

− Needs a major scrub, so so dirty. Too far from any attraction. Needs a full-wheel drive, access via a dirt road only.

Gorgeous views and comfortable stay after our long KIWT walk. The Cabyn needs maintenance and a good clean and the owner

7.0

The views are incredible. The windows offer seamless beautiful outlook during our stay. Loved the view from the sauna watching the wildlife hop by. The sauna was a highlight and the bed was very comfortable. Loved the thoughtful touches such as complimentary local KI produce and coffee etc.

− There are some maintenance issues that deserve attention, given the bespoke/luxury stay advertised. The bathroom doors don’t close properly and I suspect one is off its hinges. Surely that would be obvious to the staff maintaining the building. The fridge was not clean, the freezer grotty. The smell coming from it made us not want to use it at all. We suggest some better signage for walking paths and a decent map to show walking trails.

Romance, solitude, ambience are the words that come to mind

9.0

Driving into the property gave us a feeling of excitement. Seeing the cabins, the surrounds and the ocean was overwhelming. The cabin itself was wonderful, bbq was very welcomed, as we ate outside every night. It was magical.

− Could be cleaner, but other than that, it was perfect.

Amazing secluded getaway luxury stay.

9.0

Location, privacy, quality of fixtures were all exceptional. Fantastic place for a romantic getaway. Great welcome package as well.

− Couldn’t lock the doors, only one side of the 4 slice toaster worked. This is for feedback only, we had an amazing time we really couldn’t fault it.
