This was a beautiful unit with everything we needed. Quiet, close to a cafe, great to access tours and sights, and Milford sound was amazing! I loved the decor, comfy bed, and I’d come back if we lived in this gorgeous country!

The unit is a one bedroom apartment underneath the main house. It was spacious and clean. The bed was very comfortable. The provisions in the kitchen were more than adequate. The bathroom was very spacious and having laundry available was very helpful. Ample parking in front of the unit. Geraldine was very gracious and communicative as a host. Who would certainly recommend the unit to other travelers.

The property is clean and comfortable. The location is perfect for Doubtful sound trips. Amenities include everything that one needs. Geraldine communicated quickly when I had questions. Our only negative comment is that the listing clearly states there are two bathrooms. That is incorrect; there is one bathroom.
