I had the most wonderful stay at this off-grid cabin on the beautiful Kina Peninsula. The place was absolutely immaculate, thoughtfully designed, and incredibly well equipped. Everything had clearly been considered with care. The location is truly special: close enough to Motueka to be convenient, yet far enough from civilisation to feel completely peaceful and quiet. It was the perfect spot to slow down, breathe, and properly switch off. The hosts were lovely, welcoming, and easy to communicate with, which made the whole experience even better. If you’re looking for a serene, well-maintained off-grid escape in a stunning setting, I couldn’t recommend this place more highly.

Yes our hosts were friendly and welcoming. This was an easy going stay, a real bach, simple, relaxing, very comfy bed, and wonderful setting. Enjoyed being so close to the water. Happy to sit and appreciate the view or enjoy the easy access to the water. Would visit again.Loved the preserved plums and yoghurt with granola. Selection of teas and plunger coffee too. THANKYOU.
