8.0Nice ans quiet, great size rooms, friendly host.
Sehr zu empfehlen und sehr erholsam
9.0Man hat ein eigenes kleines Häuschen mit Ausblick auf das wunderschön angelegte Areal. Der Aussenbereich, den man nutzen kann, ist sehr großzügig mit überdachter Terrasse (gut bei Sonne und Regen) und der Rasenfläche davor. Die Ausstattung ist sehr gut, es ist großzügig und es war auch sehr sauber. Die Gastgeber sind super hilfreich und nett, kümmern sich gleich, wenn etwas fehlt oder geben auch Tipps, was man unternehmen kann. Die Lage ist sehr gut. Die Kai Iwi Lakes sind nur 10 Min zu Fuß weg für einen Walk oder zum Schwimmen.
− Eher Verbesserungsvorschläge: Es ist innen nach unserem Geschmack nicht so gemütlich gestaltet. Alles, wirklich alles ist in dunkelgrau, schwarz oder weiß gehalten. Da könnte man, wenn mal ein Austausch ansteht etwas Farbe oder Holz mit aufnehmen 😊. Ein kleiner Couchtisch, um etwas abzulegen, wäre auch noch nett. Im Bad wäre vor dem Fenster ein hellerer Sichtschutz schön. Da man auf der Toilette oder unter der Dusche direkt vor dem Fenster sitzt/steht, muss man den Sichtschutz nutzen und dann ist es dunkel im Bad.
Great stay and brilliant host
10.0An excellent retreat. Quiet, comfortable and well equipped. Bonus of ripe figs from the prolific tree in the garden. Great fun using the home theatre & gym. The lakes were close and brilliant for swimming. Wonderful host. Thanks Cherie.
− Nothing to add - everything was fine
Guest review
10.0The owner was amazing. She was so helpful!
This was a great couples romantic get away. The bird life was amazing and so was the lake.
8.0Location was great, walking distance to the lake. Apartment had all amenities. We knew to take our food, but we forgot oil for the bbq which was supplied. Spa was lovely.
− The pond in the picture was a bit lack lustre, but nice in the rain. The bird life was amazing.
