We had a great week with Alison and Danny (and all the animals) at their homestay! Alison helped us with getting our IRD Numbers, opening a bank account, and searching for a vehicle. She was also helpful with general knowledge, tips, etc. Danny is a very funny guy and fun to talk to as well, especially about movies. We also got along with all the other guests staying at the house -- playing card games every night! Thank you Alison and Danny for providing a warm, inviting, and supportive space for travelers like us. P.S. Be sure to sign their guest book! Oh and it's probably not a bad idea to rent a car from the airport while you're there -- we used "rental cars 24/7"

From the moment you step in, it feels like you're part of a family. Alison and Danny put a lot of effort into the place and making everyone feel welcome, and they will help you with anything you might need for your time in NZ. Good chats, game nights, cute dogs, what else can you ask for?

The perfect place to start your Working Holiday Visa year is definitely Alison and Danny’s! Alison is THE BEST host one can ever wish for - she already gave us tips before our arrival and she continued to offer help throughout our time with them. She’s also one of the funniest and nicest people we’ve ever met and we’ll truly miss her company! The accomodation itself is also perfect for the price and the level of hospitality. Be mindful about the very few rules and the fact that it’s their own home. Also, bear in mind that 4 lovely dogs will great you and will want some love when you arrive home or enter the living room in the morning. And you can also meet 3 super cute cats around the house. (: Alison, we’ll be forever grateful for and to you!

We liked the cozy cabin and the friendly hosts.Whenever we needed help Allison and Danny would help us .They also gave us some useful advice for the generel life in New Zealand. It was a lovely stay and we would do it again .
